Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced the BGB Buy & Hold Fest, a special event designed to reward the growing BGB community with exclusive prizes, surprise airdrops, and red packets. This limited-time promotion gives both new and existing holders a chance to grow their assets and unlock additional benefits.

The event runs from March 4, 2025, at 10:00 UTC to March 9, 2025, at 10:00 UTC, inviting participants to increase their BGB balance for a chance to win rewards. Getting involved is simple—users need to grow their holdings, share their purchase activity in the BGB Holders Community using the hashtag #TopUpBGB, and submit their user ID through the designated form.

New members can join by verifying their assets with a screenshot confirming a minimum holding of 10 BGB. Once verified, they will receive an invitation link to the community, where they can interact with other holders and join a language-specific discussion group. By sharing their purchase activity, they can claim their rewards and engage with the community.

Existing members can participate by sharing their purchase activity and submitting their UID. The most active participants will be rewarded—the top ten users with the highest BGB purchases will each receive $30 in BGB, while 50 randomly selected participants will win $10 in BGB.

As the community grows, an additional reward will be unlocked—a special red packet airdrop once membership surpasses 20,000 users, offering even more incentives to get involved.

This event is an opportunity for both new and existing holders to engage with the community, grow their holdings, and enjoy exclusive rewards. With more members joining, the momentum keeps growing.

SingularityNET, a founding member of the Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) Alliance, has announced a strategic technical partnership with Privado ID (formerly Polygon ID) to embed trust within the decentralized AI Agent ecosystem. To achieve this objective, SingularityNET, ASI and PrivadoID will launch the first decentralized AI Agent Trust Registry and the issuance of AI Agent Decentralized Identifiers (DID). Through integrating Privado ID’s privacy-preserving decentralized identity technology with SingularityNET’s AI expertise and the upcoming ASI Innovation Stack, the partners will develop verifiable onchain attestations and credentials for AI agents to ensure trust and safety. These credentials will verify critical information about AI Agents, including their models, creators, audit status, and more, allowing users and other AI Agents to interact in a secure, trusted, and transparent environment. 

The AI Agent Trust Registry marks a significant advancement in decentralized AI, empowering developers to deploy AI Agents with provable identities and attributes. Leveraging decentralized identifiers (DIDs) from Privado ID and verifiable credentials secured by zero-knowledge proofs, a transparent communication layer will be explored for integration within ASI:Create and the broader ASI Innovation Stack. Users can verify an Agent’s authenticity, safety, and fairness, fostering a secure and interoperable AI network.

Dr. Ben Goertzel, CEO of ASI and SingularityNET, stated: “Our future won’t be defined solely by how AI communicates with humans, but by how AI systems interact seamlessly among themselves. By integrating Privado ID’s decentralized, privacy-first credentials into ASI:Create, we’re not just ensuring trust; we’re paving the way for a robust, autonomous network of AI agents.”

Sebastian Rodriguez, CPO of Privado ID and Former VP of Product at Polygon, added: “I’m excited about the collaboration between Privado ID and SingularityNET as it addresses the essential need for verifiable identities in the agent-to-agent economy. Assigning unique, verifiable identities to AI agents ensures accountability and trust in their interactions and aligns with the ASI Innovation Stack’s vision of an open ecosystem by promoting interoperability and reducing reliance on centralized authorities.”

The rollout of the AI Agent Trust Registry and the testing of Privado ID’s identity infrastructure will proceed in phases: an initial pilot integrating Privado ID credentials with the AIRIS AI Agent, followed by a scalable registry validating complex attributes like authenticity and safety using privacy-preserving zero-knowledge proofs, and eventually exploring self-governance concepts for AI Agents. This phased approach ensures both robust verification and complete data privacy, providing a secure foundation for long-term integration into the ASI roadmap. This initiative has already commenced and in collaboration with SingularityNET, ASI and Privado ID the teams will provide further updates as milestones are reached.

A cornerstone of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance – comprising SingularityNET, Fetch.ai, Ocean Protocol, and CUDOS – this partnership will advance ASI’s goal of accelerating decentralized Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI).  As the initiative progresses, SingularityNET and Privado ID aim to transform digital trust, creating a resilient, interoperable AI network where both human and machine intelligences thrive.

Decentralized AI developer Sentient has announced the launch of Sentient Chat, a powerful consumer-friendly agentic chatbot akin to Perplexity. This is the first-ever chatbot with over 15 agents natively integrated. Going live on February 26, the app has already attracted significant interest, with more than 1M users signing up for early access within 24 hrs.

Sentient Chat debuted at the Open AGI Summit during ETH Denver, where it was presented to an audience of more than 1,500 crypto and AI developers. Its launch marks a significant entry into the consumer AI space, placing Sentient Chat alongside established chatbots from the likes of OpenAI, Anthropic, and Mistral AI.

Sentient Chat includes more than 15 AI agents, with four agents initially made available at launch. This will allow users to invoke specialized functions directly within the interface and experiment with automating tasks.

Other features incorporated into Sentient Chat include a real-time search function integrated with Dobby’s knowledge base and current internet data, providing up-to-date responses unbound by static training sets. This positions Sentient Chat as a viable alternative to tools like Perplexity or Google. The app employs a human-like conversational tone, as evidenced by evaluations from Confident AI which scored the Dobby model highly for natural dialogue compared to peers.

The Sentient Chat application is powered by Dobby, the world’s first community-owned AI model, which was released earlier this year to over 660,000 users through a record-breaking ownership mint. Holders of Dobby NFTs, tied to Sentient’s flagship Loyal AI model, will get priority in getting early access to Sentient Chat. The early access waitlist and raffle went live on 25th Feb.

The launch of Sentient Chat builds on Sentient’s earlier progress with Dobby, which introduced human-like conversation to AI models – a trend later mirrored by competitors, including xAI’s upcoming “unhinged” Grok update. Evaluations by Confident AI highlight Dobby’s ability to maintain performance while undergoing finetuning and leading in human-like engagement. Sentient Chat leverages these strengths to offer a unique chatbot experience that combines real-time capabilities with a responsive design that caters to Sentient’s community-centric ethos.

With its waitlist exceeding 1M and growing, Sentient Chat demonstrates that there is a clear demand for a chatbot that combines utility with user ownership. Its design ensures that the more the chatbot is utilized, the more benefits accrue to its community while extending the capabilities of what can be done with conversational AI.

About Sentient

Sentient is a decentralized AI platform dedicated to building community-owned, loyal AI models. Its flagship model, Dobby, launched in early 2025, empowers over 660,000 users with ownership and control, setting a new standard for alignment in AI development. Sentient Chat extends this mission, delivering practical, user-aligned AI solutions.

WeFi, the world’s first Deobank (Decentralized Onchain Bank), has launched Wenix, a mini-game developed natively for Telegram. Wenix integrates competitive skill-based gameplay with an earning mechanism connected to the WeFi ecosystem, combining entertainment with decentralized finance.

“Wenix is a unique blend of innovation and accessibility, aiming to bridge the gap between decentralized finance and the mainstream audience,” commented Roman Rossov, Chief Product Officer at WeFi. He added: “Leveraging Telegram’s vast reach, Wenix demonstrates how blockchain technology can be made engaging, intuitive, and rewarding for a broad audience, whether they’re exploring DeFi for the first time or are seasoned participants.”

Wenix introduces a mechanism where players purchase ITO Points (IPs) using stablecoins to participate in battles, place bets, and earn additional IPs through victories. These points can be converted into ITO units, which serve as central nodes in the WeFi ecosystem. ITO units allow users to mine WFI, the platform’s native utility token. This process ties the success of Wenix to the overall performance of the ecosystem by influencing the market value of WFI.

WeFi’s mission is to make decentralized finance accessible, secure, and inclusive by creating solutions that combine blockchain technology with user-friendly platforms. This next-generation digital banking solution will bring together blockchain and AI technologies for financial services.

The broader WeFi’s ecosystem integrates various blockchain-powered financial services, with WFI as its core utility token. The ITO platform supports transparent and community-driven fundraising, focusing on fostering early adopters who actively participate in the ecosystem. Players earning IP through Wenix contribute directly to the platform’s development and functionality.

Wenix enhances the traditional Telegram-based games by incorporating player actions into the broader WeFi ecosystem. Each interaction — whether earning IP in Wenix or contributing to other aspects of the ecosystem — impacts the supply and market performance of WFI. This approach connects gameplay with the platform’s financial structure, creating a unified system where user participation directly adds value.

For more information about Wenix, users can join the mini game on Telegram, or join the official Telegram Announcement Channel, the Wenix Community Channel and visit Wenix’s website.

About WeFi

WeFi is the world’s first Deobank – Decentralized Onchain Bank. It leverages Blockchain Technology to simplify DeFi experience while keeping it fast, secure and efficient. On top of all the traditional financial services like virtual cards, loans and asset transfer, WeFi proposes non-custodial accounts and stablecoin earnings powered by AI Agents.

Supra, the fully vertically integrated Layer-1 blockchain built with MultiVM support, in-protocol oracles, native onchain randomness, cross-chain communication, and automation capabilities, is pleased to announce the publication of a groundbreaking research paper that introduces “SupraSTM”, a novel approach to parallel execution. SupraSTM significantly enhances Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) transaction processing among other notable features.

The research paper, “Access Specification Aware Software Transactional Memory Techniques for Efficient Execution of Blockchain Transactions”, outlines a breakthrough in blockchain execution that could enable the Supra Layer 1 blockchain platform to process transactions up to 400% faster than existing sequential models. Unlike other implementations, like pEVM (Parallel Ethereum Virtual Machine) based on Aptos’ BlockSTM, SupraSTM eliminates unnecessary transaction retries and prevents conflicts before execution, offering a major step forward in scalability and efficiency.

“This research is a key milestone in Supra’s mission to redefine blockchain capability,” said Joshua Tobkin, CEO and Co-Founder of Supra. “We are solving fundamental Web3 challenges by integrating superior execution models directly into our Layer 1 blockchain. With SupraSTM’s progress in scaling the EVM on Supra, we are taking another significant step toward a truly scalable and efficient decentralized future.”

Addressing the Limitations of Existing Parallel Execution Models

Layer 1 protocols such as Ethereum traditionally execute transactions sequentially, and while this ensures deterministic execution, it creates performance bottlenecks, especially during periods of high network congestion.

Recent advancements, such as Aptos’ BlockSTM and Parallel Ethereum Virtual Machine (pEVM), have introduced speculative parallel execution models. These approaches set out to execute multiple transactions simultaneously while assuming minimal conflicts, and if conflicts do arise, they abort and re-execute the conflicting transactions. While this is a step in the right direction from sequential execution of the EVM, it does create significant overhead in the form of re-executions and retries, leading to performance degradation under high-congestion conditions.

SupraSTM modifies this process by leveraging a new “Specification Awareness” method using a Bytecode Analyzer, which can help predict and prevent conflicts before execution begins. Unlike speculative models that identify conflicts after the fact, SupraSTM is able to preemptively organize transactions in a conflict-aware manner, ensuring that execution occurs efficiently and without unnecessary rollbacks.

SupraSTM introduces a fundamentally improved approach to blockchain execution by:

• Preventing conflicts before execution rather than resolving them afterward.
• Utilizing a conflict-aware scheduler that intelligently sequences transactions to minimize aborts.
• Optimizing execution to ensure that only non-conflicting transactions run in parallel.
• Achieving up to 2.4x speed improvements over existing parallel execution models in high-conflict scenarios.
• Achieves 400% increase in transaction execution throughput over sequential EVM execution.

The research demonstrates that, under ideal conditions, SupraSTM could process over 410,000 transactions per second (TPS), a considerable leap from Ethereum’s current sequential execution model and incumbent parallelized EVM (pEVM) implementations.

Implications for Blockchain Scalability and Web3 Adoption

The introduction of SupraSTM represents a paradigm shift in blockchain transaction processing. By refining execution efficiency, Supra is not only increasing transaction speeds but also reducing gas fees, improving EVM scalability, and ensuring stable performance under high demand.

This research has far-reaching implications across various Web3 applications, including DeFi protocols that require low-latency execution for high-frequency trading, NFT marketplaces that need to scale during large mints without overwhelming the network, and blockchain gaming and metaverse applications that rely on seamless real-time interactions. By integrating SupraSTM into its core L1 infrastructure, Supra is setting a new standard for transaction execution that will enable the next generation of decentralized applications to scale without compromise.

Future Roadmap and Research Directions

While SupraSTM marks a major milestone in blockchain execution efficiency, the research team is already looking ahead to further optimizations. Future upgrades to Supra’s execution model may incorporate “machine learning-driven” execution strategies, which could dynamically optimize transaction scheduling based on real-time network conditions.

Additionally, Supra researchers are developing adaptive execution models that will adjust transaction execution strategies based on congestion levels, ensuring that blockchain applications remain performant in all network conditions.
