🚀 Theoriq Launches Blockchain-Based AI Testnet
#Theoriq #Blockchain #AI #Testnet #Web3 #GoogleCloud #Startups #OpenSource #SecurityAudit #DeveloperGrants #DecentralizedAI #SmartContracts #Automation #AgenticAge #AICollectives
According to Cointelegraph, decentralized artificial intelligence and Web3 firm Theoriq announced the launch of its Testnet on August 8. This launch marks the first blockchain-based network designed specifically for AI agents, which are autonomous systems that perform specific tasks.
Theoriq was recently accepted into the Google Cloud Startup Program on August 19, gaining partner access to Google Cloud services and infrastructure to aid in the development of its protocol. The AI agents developed by Theoriq are part of a broader blockchain-based ecosystem, where they can combine as collectives to perform higher-level functions and execute simultaneous actions across multiple domains.
Theoriq’s CEO and Co-founder Ron Bodkin stated that the company’s mainnet is scheduled for launch later this year. He mentioned that users can expect open-source protocol fundamentals and a comprehensive security audit. Additionally, the company plans to offer developer grants to support innovation on the platform. During the Testnet phase, Theoriq will focus on further developing its AI agents.
Bodkin explained that the company’s AI agents are designed to plan, access data, use tools, make decisions, and engage with the real world to carry out specific functions. He emphasized that specialized agents collaborating in teams, known as collectives, to tackle increasingly complex tasks will outperform general-purpose monolithic agents. These AI agents can specialize in various tasks such as analyzing social data, querying and accessing trading data, code generation, and image creation, allowing them to work collectively towards a unified goal.
Bodkin provided an example of decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN) providers using agents to interact with smart contracts, control assets, and make micropayments, which can significantly enhance automation in Web3 and beyond. He concluded by stating that with this level of agency, Theoriq’s AI agents are poised to reshape how we interact with technology, marking the beginning of what he calls the Agentic Age.#Theoriq #Blockchain #AI #Testnet #Web3 #GoogleCloud #Startups #OpenSource #SecurityAudit #DeveloperGrants #DecentralizedAI #SmartContracts #Automation #AgenticAge #AICollectives

🚀 Slurpycoin Faces Flash Loan Attack on BSC
#Slurpycoin #FlashLoanAttack #BSC #DeFi #BlockchainSecurity #CertiK #SmartContracts #CryptoSafety #PriceManipulation #SecurityAudit
According to Foresight News, a recent flash loan attack targeted Slurpycoin on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The attack was detected by CertiK Alert, a blockchain security monitoring service. The attacker exploited the token's buyback mechanism to manipulate its price, resulting in a profit of approximately $3,000 through sandwich arbitrage.
Flash loan attacks have become a common threat in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space, where attackers take advantage of vulnerabilities in smart contracts to execute complex trades without requiring upfront capital. In this case, the attacker used the buyback mechanism of Slurpycoin to artificially inflate the token's price, allowing them to profit from the price difference created by the manipulation.
The incident highlights the ongoing security challenges faced by DeFi projects, particularly those operating on popular platforms like BSC. As the DeFi ecosystem continues to grow, ensuring the security and integrity of smart contracts remains a critical concern for developers and investors alike. This attack serves as a reminder of the importance of thorough security audits and the implementation of robust protective measures to safeguard against such exploits.#Slurpycoin #FlashLoanAttack #BSC #DeFi #BlockchainSecurity #CertiK #SmartContracts #CryptoSafety #PriceManipulation #SecurityAudit

🚀 Ethereum Foundation Proposes Validator Revenue Redistribution Plan
#Ethereum #ValidatorRevenueRedistribution #VRR #EthCC #stakingrewards #smartcontracts #publicgoods #Gitcoin #Octant #securityaudit #coreprotocol #EthereumFoundation #decentralization #ecosystemgovernance #blockchain #ETH
Ethereum Foundation researcher Devansh Mehta introduced a Validator Revenue Redistribution (VRR) plan at the EthCC[9] conference. According to Foresight News, this proposal allows validators to signal at the consensus layer to autonomously redirect a portion of their staking rewards to designated smart contracts instead of withdrawing all to personal wallets. The recipients could include public goods funding platforms like Gitcoin and Octant, security audit organizations, or core protocol research teams.
The plan involves two changes at the execution layer: signaling the validator's redirection percentage and implementing the logic for fund allocation to specified contracts. Devansh emphasized that VRR is not mandatory but serves as a tool empowering validators to convert part of their earnings into a funding source for Ethereum's evolution. This approach aims to reduce reliance on centralized donations while enabling validators to directly participate in ecosystem governance and security development.#Ethereum #ValidatorRevenueRedistribution #VRR #EthCC #stakingrewards #smartcontracts #publicgoods #Gitcoin #Octant #securityaudit #coreprotocol #EthereumFoundation #decentralization #ecosystemgovernance #blockchain #ETH
