On April 21, Brad Bao, Head of AI Growth at Cobo, shared at the offline event themed 'Decoding Web 4.0: When AI Agents Take Over On-Chain Authority' that Cobo is restructuring the funding control logic of Agents through a structured authority system. In its products, the relationship between users and Agents is no longer a simple wallet authorization but is defined by an executable 'contract (Policy/Agreement)' that outlines the boundaries of authority. This contract includes at least four core elements: Intent, Path, Rules, and Termination conditions, thereby upgrading the original 'all or nothing' authority control to a negotiable, auditable, and revocable fine-grained governance mechanism. On the execution level, Cobo integrates MPC (Multi-Party Computation) technology to ensure that even if an Agent exhibits abnormal behavior, the system is attacked, or risks such as prompt injection occur, the funds remain under user control, and no single entity can bypass the constraints to independently transfer assets. Brad Bao emphasized that under this framework, Agents can gain sufficient freedom of action to complete complex tasks, but their behavior is always confined within verifiable boundaries. He stated that this system essentially builds a layer of 'trust and insurance infrastructure' within the Agent economy, achieving controllable delegation of Agent behavior through the combination of 'contractual authority + secure computation,' ultimately enhancing automation efficiency while ensuring user asset security and outcome certainty.

On April 21, Brad Bao, the Growth Head of Cobo AI, shared at the offline event themed 'Decoding Web 4.0: When AI Agents Take Over On-Chain Permissions' that the involvement of AI Agents in fund allocation and asset management has transitioned from concept to reality. The question of whether Agents will manage money is no longer relevant. As more Agents directly connect to wallets to execute transactions, the industry has begun to see risks such as funds not arriving as expected. In response, the team continuously records issues and risks faced by Agents in real transactions through an experimental system, promoting the improvement of relevant mechanisms. Brad Bao pointed out that the current core contradiction in the industry is: if Agents lack autonomy, their value will be no different from traditional automated trading tools; however, if they lack verifiable certainty, humans cannot confidently entrust fund management to Agents. This tension between 'autonomy vs certainty' is becoming a key bottleneck for AI Agents in advancing towards on-chain financial infrastructure.

According to The Block, Shin Hyun-song, the newly appointed governor of South Korea's central bank, delivered an inaugural speech promising to promote the development of central bank digital currency (CBDC) and deposit tokens. He stated that the related applications would be expanded through the second phase of the 'Han River Project' and that the bank would participate in global collaborations such as Project Agora to strengthen the position of the Korean won in the global payment system. Notably, Shin did not mention the Korean won stablecoin in his speech, despite South Korean legislators actively pushing for the 'Basic Digital Assets Act' to establish a legal framework for stablecoins, with discussions expected to resume after the regional elections on June 3. Previously, during his tenure at the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), Shin held a negative view on stablecoins, believing they could not replace currency. However, reports indicate that his stance has shifted, suggesting that the Korean won stablecoin should coexist with CBDC.

On April 21, ether.fi announced on the X platform that, following guidance from security partners, it will restore the LayerZero bridging functionality for weETH and eETH within the next 24 hours. Previously, ether.fi confirmed that its Liquid treasury was temporarily not directly exposed to the risks associated with the Kelp rsETH incident, but decided to suspend the LayerZero cross-chain bridging functionality for weETH and eETH as a precaution until the root cause of the Kelp rsETH incident is clarified. Additionally, related Teller contracts for Liquid (ETH, BTC, USD), sETHFI, and eBTC products have been suspended to block the LayerZero OFT bridging path, and the deposit and withdrawal functions for these assets have also been paused. The team is currently working closely with security partners.

On April 21, local time, Abdollahi, commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Command of the Iranian Armed Forces, stated that Iran is prepared to respond decisively to the 'enemy's breach of promises.' Abdollahi emphasized that the current Iranian military possesses 'authority, readiness, and comprehensive strategic capabilities.' He noted that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and other defense forces have demonstrated combat capabilities in relevant operations, putting 'Israel and the United States in a difficult and fatigued position,' forcing them to 'seek a ceasefire.' Abdollahi also stressed that the Iranian armed forces maintain a high level of unity with the government and the people under the supreme leader's unified command, and will respond 'decisively, resolutely, and promptly' to any threats and actions.

On April 21, Shu Jun, Chief Technology Officer of MuleRun, the world's first self-evolving personal AI project, shared at the offline event themed "Decoding Web 4.0: When AI Agents Take Over On-Chain Permissions" that traditional methods of data acquisition relying on search engines or free APIs are inadequate for high-precision needs, especially in financial trading scenarios. Free market data interfaces often suffer from delays and data omissions, making them unsuitable for high-frequency or specialized decision-making. To address this, MuleRun integrates high-quality data sources and specialized tool interfaces, lowering the barrier for users to access without needing to procure or configure APIs themselves, allowing them to utilize a data system that includes on-chain data, U.S. stock data, and multi-dimensional analytical capabilities. The platform also introduces various 'Skills', including trading strategy evaluation, multi-role simulated debates, and quantitative backtesting functionalities. Backtesting tasks are executed on external servers to resolve issues of insufficient computational power in local and general cloud environments, enhancing the actual user experience for quantitative users. Additionally, MuleRun is expanding its diverse data sources, such as integrating cross-border e-commerce product data, to enhance the Agent's information acquisition capabilities in different business scenarios. In terms of 'intelligent decision-making', Shu Jun emphasized that the core of the Agent lies in its ability to handle complex tasks, including multi-period data analysis, indicator calculation, and strategy execution. Cost control has also become a key metric. Currently, AI systems generally face high token consumption issues, which directly affect user costs. In response, MuleRun has systematically optimized token usage at the engineering level, significantly reducing costs while ensuring task completion quality, thereby improving task execution efficiency under the same budget. Shu Jun stated that data quality and model efficiency will directly determine the performance of the AI Agent in tasks, and in the future, the platform will continue to seek a balance between high-quality data access and low-cost intelligent computation to support more complex on-chain application scenarios.

On April 21, cryptocurrency market analyst Axel stated that Bitcoin's net flow turned negative in the past 30 days, shifting from positive to negative since early March. On March 25, it reached a significant outflow peak of -300,000 BTC, and as of April 21, it remains at a net outflow of -98,000 BTC. During the same period, the BTC reserves on trading platforms decreased from 2.786 million to 2.681 million, marking a continuous decline for seven weeks, totaling a reduction of over 105,000 BTC. There has been no panic inflow during the price correction in April, indicating that tokens are continuously being held by long-term holders. The current pattern is interpreted as a signal for accumulation, but there is a potential risk to be cautious about if the net flow returns to positive territory.
