We turned the Claude/Codex waiting spinner into an onchain, bot-proof ad marketplace.
Advertisers bid for ad space inside the world's fastest-growing attention sink. Users see a 5-second ad instead of the loading spinner, and earn USDC.
โข 18 million hrs/mo spent waiting for AI to respond
โข $5.25B (8.5% of all ad spend) wasted on invalid traffic (bots)
Full credit to @andrewmccalip's kickbacks.ai for the idea.
We tried to solve two big issues Andrew faced:
1) Payments: processors impose min payouts, high fees, have withdrawal limits, limited support for non-US banks. x.com/andrewmccalip/status/2โฆ
Solution: advertisers escrow USDC and bid ad space via on-chain auction. Users paid out instantly anywhere in the world.
2) Fraud: client-side ad traffic can be faked taking resources to filter.
Solution: @worldnetwork World ID AgentKit bind each agent to a verified human making botting economically unviable.
Andrew, happy to help with any onchain/stablecoin features you wanna add :)
Verified human attention creates a flywheel: higher ROAS drives more advertiser demand, which raises CPMs, increases user payouts, attracts more users, and brings in more verified attention.

problem: brilliant developers in your city don't know about agentkit. they're not aware that GOAT Network exists. they're stuck experimenting when they could be shipping real products with ai agents.
solution: @GOATNetwork developer advocate program.
they're looking for people like you community leaders, hackathon mentors, technical content creators, open-source contributors who already have access to builder communities and can introduce them to agentkit.
here's what makes this different:
most developer programs are marketing in disguise. this isn't. GOAT explicitly says: the role is not designed for general promotion. the focus is on working closely with builders, helping them understand the available tools, collecting feedback from developers, and contributing to the growth of the GOAT ecosystem.
that's refreshing.
what the work looks like:
โข host or support workshops introducing agentkit
โข participate in hackathons as a mentor/advocate
โข create technical content (tutorials, demos, guides)
โข help builders understand what's possible with wallet-connected agents, ai copilots, agentic commerce
โข Identify strong teams for the GOAT AI Builder Grants Program
โข gather feedback from developers
what you get:
โข $500/month baseline
โข bonus rewards for exceptional work (successful referrals, strong workshops, teams that secure grants)
โข onboarding resources & KPI guidelines
โข access to a private coordination channel with other advocates
โข direct communication with the GOAT team
โข ecosystem updates & resources
why this matters for africa specifically:
geography shouldn't determine who gets access to world-class developer infrastructure. if you're in Lagos, Accra, Nairobi, or anywhere else, you should be able to discover and build on cutting-edge tools just as easily as someone in San Francisco.
this program is how that actually happens through trusted community members bringing the tools home.
if you run a forloop meetup, lead a she code africa chapter, organize hackathons, or just have a strong circle of builders around you, check this out.

Submitted for Week 3 (MCP/x402 Agent).
Feedback already sent to the Hedera Agent Kit repo.
Would love for the community to try it and share thoughts!

picture 1: powerful AI (Claude Fable 5) helped a dev speed up kernel code on june 12
picture 2: same day, US gov suspended access to that AI citing national security, shut it down for everyone
the speed is what matters here. ai went from shipping code improvements to government killswitch in hours. centralization risk playing out in real time. projects built on Fable getting rugged, users reporting loss of access to NFTs. meanwhile World AgentKit already built a compliance prototype in 4 hours using World ID for nationality checks
shows how fast regulatory walls go up and how fast builders route around them

Coinbase has been building toward 'Coinbase for Agents' since AgentKit in 2024, then x402 last year.
The bet being that people swill stop using apps and start using agents.

Coinbase just handed AI agents the keys to your trading account.
Yesterday they launched "Coinbase for Agents," which connects agents like Claude or ChatGPT directly to your @Coinbase account.
Your agent can now read your portfolio AND place the trades (save this).
Some of what's possible on day one:
You give it a target allocation (say 60% $BTC, 20% $ETH, 20% $SOL) and tell it to set limit orders at 5%, 10%, and 15% dips so you build the position gradually.
Or you ask it to find the best DCA window. It pulls 30 days of hourly price data, finds when $ETH historically trades cheapest, and sets a recurring $20 buy at that hour every day.
It can also watch your idle cash around the clock and put it to work earning rewards.
Worried about giving an AI full access to your portfolio?
Your Coinbase agent can live in an isolated portfolio with zero visibility into your other holdings, where it only touches what you've explicitly permissioned.
Soon you'll be able to set hard caps too:
Max trade size, what it can interact with, how much it can spend.
Coinbase compares it to giving your agent a gift card instead of your bank account.
Every payment also runs through the same KYT and transaction monitoring as the rest of Coinbase.
What's coming next:
Stocks, index funds, prediction markets, and commodities.
If it trades on Coinbase, they want your agent trading it.
Plus x402 payments, so your agent can buy its own data and services to inform trades - and a remote MCP that connects with just a Coinbase sign-in, no API keys.
They also dropped Coinbase Advisor, an AI advisor inside the Coinbase app that's registered with the SEC and CFTC.
Coinbase has been building toward this since AgentKit in 2024, then x402 last year.
The bet being that people swill stop using apps and start using agents.

Today we upgraded our agents with more permissions by default to be able to buy $SPCX faster than Coinbase's agentkit.
we build & help you fund an agent without kyc, with @solana's @tokens list, & @Backpack's verified SPCX tokenized stock.
growing one day at a time!

We launched the GOAT Network Developer Advocate Program.
Weโre looking for developer community leaders who can onboard builders into the GOAT ecosystem and help drive AgentKit adoption.
Selected advocates receive monthly USDT, onboarding resources, a private channel with the GOAT team, and a path to connect builders with GOAT AI Builder Grants.
