Skynet, a decentralized protocol providing global resources for AI agents, has partnered with Tria, a chain-abstraction platform simplifying blockchain interactions. Together, they aim to eliminate the limitations that prevent AI agents from autonomously engaging in real-world activities. By leveraging Arbitrum Orbit’s customizable Optimistic rollup-based framework, this collaboration aims to improve the industries.

Impact of AI Agents

AI agents are rapidly becoming a significant economic driver, with projections estimating they will contribute $16 trillion to the global economy by 2030. Industry leaders predict these agents will surpass the human population in generating ideas, conducting research, and solving complex challenges in sectors like finance, healthcare, and logistics. Despite billions in investment, critical obstacles hinder their ability to act independently. Challenges include fragmented systems, reliance on intermediaries for financial transactions, and difficulties in accessing necessary resources like payment gateways or identity services.

Skynet: Providing AI Agents with Global Resources

Skynet addresses these barriers through its Smart Access Points, which connect AI agents to a vast network of web2 and web3 organizations, including platforms like AWS, Shopify, and Booking.com. This decentralized resource blockchain, built on Arbitrum Orbit, ensures agents can autonomously interact with services, execute transactions, and manage payment limits. Skynet’s infrastructure supports diverse payment mechanisms, allowing transactions in USD or stablecoins and fostering a scalable, efficient AI-driven economy.

Tria: Enabling Seamless Blockchain Interactions

Tria complements Skynet by simplifying blockchain interactions for AI agents. Its chain-abstraction interface eliminates the need for multiple wallets, gas tokens, or bridging mechanisms, enabling agents to access assets and execute transactions across various virtual machines (VMs). Tria’s BestPath AVS solution ensures optimal routes across blockchain ecosystems, enhancing efficiency. Additionally, its gas abstraction layer allows AI agents to transact with tokens from any chain, overcoming traditional payment barriers.

Arbitrum Orbit: A Foundation for Innovation

At the core of this collaboration is Arbitrum Orbit, offering a customizable and modular blockchain framework. By enabling seamless integration and adaptability, Orbit supports Skynet’s and Tria’s efforts to empower AI agents, paving the way for scalable, autonomous operations across industries.

Unlocking Real-World Applications

This partnership opens a world of possibilities for AI agents. In the travel and hospitality sector, agents can autonomously book accommodations and manage itineraries across platforms. For logistics and supply chains, they can optimize routes, manage inventory, and track deliveries efficiently. In finance, AI agents gain the ability to interact with decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, managing portfolios and optimizing yields autonomously.

Meanwhile, in healthcare, agents can coordinate appointments, share data securely, and reduce administrative burdens. With their combined expertise, Skynet, Tria, and Arbitrum are unlocking the full potential of AI agents, creating a foundation for the next wave of innovation in global industries.
