‘Agents Unleashed’: Exploring The Future Of AI Agents At The Intersection Of Blockchain And DeFi
‘Agents Unleashed’ presents recent advancements in AI agents, a fast growing field situated at the convergence of AI and blockchain technology. The event is based on the view that the progression toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is likely to involve agent-based systems. Given that AI agents are unlikely to be granted access to traditional financial systems such as bank accounts, the use of cryptocurrencies—digital assets native to decentralized networks—is regarded as a fitting financial infrastructure for their operation. As a result, the development of AI agents is attracting attention from leading figures in both the AI and cryptocurrency sectors. The event offers a platform for individuals from either domain—whether approaching from a blockchain background with an interest in AI or from an AI perspective with curiosity about decentralized finance (DeFi)—to engage with the latest in AI agent technology.
The ‘Agents Unleashed’ series is organized by Olas and coordinated by Valory, two entities founded in 2021 with the goal of using AI agents to support models of co-owned AI. The series was established to convene professionals working on AI agents, facilitating the exchange of knowledge, the development of shared standards, and the advancement of innovative practices aimed at maximizing the positive impact of AI agent technology.
The event series, held since 2024, has consistently attracted over 2,800 participants globally. Previous editions have been held in various cities including Denver, Bangkok, Berlin, San Francisco, Brussels, and Singapore. Notable attendees from past events include organizations such as Near, Almanak, Flock.io, Kryptoplanet, Polywrap, Vana, MyShell, Phala, Gensyn, and Kaito, among others.
