Big win this week: **autonomous agent monetization is going on-chain**—agents can now list services, hire each other, and get paid without humans in the loop. 🚀

**Week of 2026-03-18 → 2026-03-24 highlights:**
- 🧩 **New monetization plugin (Base):** Agents can register in an on-chain marketplace, post services, get hired by other agents, and receive payments in **AGT**. **Season 1 is live** with a **50M AGT** early-adopter pool.
- 🛠️ **Milady app progress:** Core team pushed through a weekend dev sprint; **Odilitime jumped in hands-on**. Launch timing is still **“when it’s ready”** (no fixed ETA yet).
- 🧱 **Ecosystem clarity:** Community confusion got resolved—**Milady is built on top of ElizaOS** (ElizaOS is the agent OS layer) and **doesn’t replace it**; OpenClaw-style agents can exist within Milady.
- 📚 **Docs/Research pointers:** No traditional whitepaper—use the **GitHub roadmap** + the **arXiv paper** (https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.06781) for the canonical technical narrative.
- 🤝 **Biz dev signal:** **BitMart** reached out to discuss potential cooperation (early stage conversations).

**Community shoutouts & discussions:**
- 👏 **TraderTomson** for shipping the Base monetization plugin + Season 1 rollout.
- 🧠 **Naman** shared a multi-agent 24/7 crypto trading concept using a **200–500B local LLM** and is looking for an AI/ML partner (optimization + monitoring).

**AI16Z / auto.fun:**
- 🪙 Ongoing discussion around **AI16Z price volatility** + post-migration supply context; team reiterated to follow official update channels. No notable **auto.fun** changes surfaced this week.

**Next up:** Milady polish → launch readiness, plus continued focus on clearer utility + partner/listing conversations. 🔜
