Animoca Brand and Ethoswarm Introduce Animoca Minds to Streamline Agent AI Access
Animoca Brands collaborates with Ethoswarm to launch Animoca Minds. The project addresses long-standing obstacles in the agent and AI economy, where engagement has traditionally required infrastructure and technical expertise. This service provides an efficient experience to streamline the management and deployment of robust AI agents. Therefore, consumers can use AI Mind as a permanent, always-on service rather than a one-time session.
Separately, Animoca Minds abstracts away complex blockchain interfaces and eliminates hardware bottlenecks, allowing anyone to engage with AI through familiar tools like Telegram and email. At the same time, the platform also plans more messaging integrations to further expand its accessibility. Additionally, Animoca Minds allows consumers to choose from a variety of agent profiles for practical use. In this regard, crypto scouts to detect the latest Web3 projects, researchers to provide real-time insights, etc. can leverage the initiative in their activities.
Additionally, Animoca Minds' hands-on approach strengthens AI awareness by enabling non-technical consumers to safely leverage cutting-edge tools while delving into opportunities within the rapidly evolving AI landscape. The platform empowers users to understand the potential of blockchain-driven digital assets and the capabilities of agent AI, with an emphasis on real-world use. In discussing the move, Randy Wasinger, CEO and founder of Ethoswarm's parent company CryptoSlam, emphasized the company's focus on persistence and safety of its AI agents. The executive also said Animoca Brands is streamlining its infrastructure for everyday consumers.
Initiative marks a paradigm shift and revolutionizes user interaction with robust AI agents
Separately, Mohamed Ezeldin, head of Animoca Labs, said the service effectively moves AI agents beyond private services and engineers, making it easy for anyone to launch. Additionally, Yat Siu, executive chairman and co-founder of Animoca Brands, revealed that Animoca Minds will change the software paradigm. Aimoca Minds is currently accepting applications for early access and is getting consumers interested in Agent Web.
