Silicon Valley's New Darling Clawdbot: When Local AI Agents Learn to 'Go On-Chain', What Happens?

A new open-source project called Clawdbot (now renamed Moltbot) has gained attention in Silicon Valley. It enables an AI agent to run locally on a user’s computer or server, allowing it to browse the web, click buttons, send messages, and even execute transactions automatically. Unlike cloud-based models like ChatGPT, Clawdbot is self-hosted, open-source, and operates across multiple platforms such as Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, and Slack. It features persistent memory and can perform tasks via browser automation, command-line operations, and scripts—making it a persistent digital assistant. In the context of Web3, Clawdbot could significantly lower barriers to participation by automating complex and repetitive on-chain operations. Potential use cases include 24/7 monitoring of liquidation thresholds, automated yield reinvestment, cross-chain transactions, and strategy execution via natural language commands. However, the integration of such agents with Web3 also introduces serious risks. Recent incidents include fake token launches under Clawdbot’s name and security vulnerabilities from misconfigured servers. To mitigate risks, users are advised to grant minimal wallet permissions—preferably read-only—use dedicated small-cap wallets with strict limits, and avoid unofficial token promotions. Self-hosting does not guarantee security; improper configuration may expose sensitive data and execution privileges. The agent should serve as an assistant, not a custodian. Any permission beyond the user’s comfort zone requires careful consideration. *This content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

Solana Policy Institute President’s Top Priorities For CLARITY Act And Latest Update On The Bill

Kristin Smith, President of the Solana Policy Institute, discussed the CLARITY Act, a key crypto market structure bill, emphasizing the need to protect open-source developers. Despite a recent delay in the bill’s markup, she expressed optimism due to strong bipartisan support and ongoing industry engagement. Smith highlighted the importance of creating a regulatory framework that safeguards consumers, fosters innovation, and provides legal certainty. She raised concerns about the prosecution of developers like Roman Storm of Tornado Cash, warning that criminalizing open-source code threatens innovation and free expression. Smith called for clear policies distinguishing lawful developers from bad actors. Meanwhile, Solana’s SOL traded at $130.33, down 11% over the week.
