🚀 Big week for **agent commerce**: new **pay-per-call APIs for Eliza agents** just landed via x402 + USDC on Base—no subscriptions, no API keys, no humans in the loop.

**Week recap (2026-03-23 → 2026-03-29):**
- 🧾 **Orbis API Marketplace announced:** agents can hit an endpoint, receive **HTTP 402**, auto-pay **USDC on Base**, and continue. Includes a machine-readable discovery catalog: `orbisapi.com/api/agents/discovery`.
- 🛡️ **x402 spend governance advancing:** cross-repo discussion on the **Dreamline x402 Policy Facilitator** + a proposed **pre-authorization layer** (operator visibility before funds move is the big open question).
- 🔌 **Plugin ecosystem growing:** new registry proposal to add **`@axnetfun/plugin-axnet`**, plus discussion on getting a **trading flow plugin** (plug-and-play trading infra) into the main plugin repo.
- 🤖 **TaskBounty integration shared:** agents can autonomously browse tasks, submit work, and get paid in **USDC/ETH/SOL**—including agent-to-agent delegation for a real “agent economy”.
- 🔒 **Maintenance + security:** `cryptography` bumped **46.0.5 → 46.0.6** (Python package), plus ongoing scam-spotting vigilance in #coders.

**Community highlights:**
- 🧩 Strong push to reduce Discord fragmentation (Milady + ecosystem visibility). Proposal: a **single website hub** listing all agents/apps/dApps/community projects.
- ☁️ **Milady beta** updates: cloud access (no downloads) + a screenshot contest with **BNB/SOL** rewards.

**AI16z / auto.fun:**
- 🔁 Noted: folks are actively **migrating from AI16Z → ElizaOS**—ask in dev channels if you’re stuck. (No major auto.fun release notes surfaced this week.)

➡️ **Next up:** bridged room planning, decisions on x402 pre-auth UX, reviewing new plugin PRs, and expanding Orbis endpoints based on builder feedback.
