forklog.media Alchemy Launches AgentPay Gateway to Unify AI Agent Payments

Web3 infrastructure provider Alchemy has introduced AgentPay, a tool designed to integrate AI-based payment systems, including solutions from Coinbase, Stripe, Visa, Mastercard, and Circle. 🚨 NEW:Introducing Alchemy AgentPay:Your business, now accepting agent payments.✔️ One integration, every agentic payment protocol✔️ Zero code changes to your existing API✔️ New protocols added automaticallySimple. Universal. Future-proof.Get early access 🔗👇 pic.twitter.com/I1NWYe3I8H— Alchemy (@Alchemy) April 7, 2026 The innovation addresses the issue of incompatible autonomous protocols. Previously, merchants had to set up separate gateways for each standard to accept transfers from AI agents. "This is unsustainable, and with the launch of new systems, fragmentation will only increase. AgentPay fixes the situation," stated Alchemy's CTO Guillaume Poussin. A merchant registers an existing API on the platform and receives a new endpoint. Through this, any agent can make a payment using one of the supported protocols (such as x402, MPP, A2P, or L402). Volumes and dynamics of value transferred through the x402 protocol. Source: Artemis. Poussin emphasized that AgentPay functions solely as a transit layer for routing commands — Alchemy itself does not interact with users' funds. Currently, the solution is undergoing closed beta testing, with a public release expected in the coming weeks. The project, often dubbed the "AWS of the Web3 world," provides developers with foundational infrastructure and node services for building blockchain applications. The concept of autonomous finance relies on micro- and nano-transactions. Some of these operations occur directly between AI agents without human involvement. It is expected that this segment will become the foundation of online payment activity in the future. McKinsey analysts predict that by 2030, the volume of retail payments via AI agents will reach $3-5 trillion. Source: Alchemy. Earlier, the Solana Foundation announced the Solana Agent Skills solution. This is a set of skills that can be integrated into AI agents for blockchain interaction.

forklog.media CZ’s autobiography: a call from Sam Bankman-Fried and a run-in with Gary Gensler

On 8 April, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) published a book, Freedom of Money. It recounts the exchange’s creation, his imprisonment, the collapse of FTX and a curious episode involving former SEC chair Gary Gensler.  The book Freedom of Money is live in some countries already.It seems the book will be available to everyone on April 8th at 12:00 AM in their own time zone.If you have trouble falling asleep at midnight today, grab a copy today. All proceeds go to charity.English 👉…— CZ 🔶 BNB (@cz_binance) April 8, 2026 CZ said he would donate all proceeds from the book to charity.  The foreword is by Binance co‑founder Yi He, who has worked with Zhao since 2014. She now serves as co‑CEO alongside Richard Teng.  The memoir’s theme is in the title. To Zhao, the freedom of money lies in cryptocurrencies’ ability to remove barriers to financial access, especially in regions with weak banking infrastructure or tight capital controls. The text is interspersed with photographs from Zhao’s archive: from the family’s move to Vancouver and his first computer to shots with Vitalik Buterin and the exchange’s hurried relocation from China after the crypto ban. CZ has revealed many photos for the first time in his newly released autobiography: A photo of CZ with his sister and parents on August 6, 1989, when they first arrived at Vancouver Airport. In 1990, CZ first encountered the x286 computer in Vancouver. In 2014, CZ took… pic.twitter.com/LLsruv75NV— Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) April 8, 2026 His account of FTX’s collapse CZ says that in November 2022, during a phone call before Binance’s attempt to acquire FTX, Sam Bankman‑Fried asked him for “a couple of billion dollars”.  According to the Binance founder, the request was casual, “as if it were about a ham sandwich.” Zhao had not intended to do a deal; the letter of intent was merely a formality to assess the situation and protect users. “I had zero desire to own FTX. I wasn’t particularly concerned about helping Sam Bankman‑Fried either. But I thought we might have to step in to protect users and the industry,” he added. Changpeng Zhao and Sam Bankman‑Fried. Source: X. In CZ’s view, the trigger for FTX’s demise was a public statement by Caroline Ellison, the former head of Alameda Research. He called her offer to buy Binance’s FTT holdings at $22 to stabilise the market a fatal mistake. By revealing a support level, Ellison prompted professional traders to short below it. The token fell to $15, then $5. Within 72 hours, $6bn was withdrawn from the exchange. CZ also described an Exchange Collaboration group chat on Signal. It was created by FTX employee Zane Tackett during the Terra/LUNA crash. Besides Zhao and Bankman‑Fried, Coinbase chief executive Brian Armstrong and Kraken’s Jesse Powell were in the group.  The chat later drew interest from the Department of Justice and the SEC. “They were looking for any hints of collusion or manipulation among exchanges. Of course, in our case there was nothing of the sort,” CZ said.  On 9 November Binance walked away from the deal. The platform’s FTT holdings, once valued at $580m, were wiped out. Zhao likened it to losing $1.6bn on LUNA investments six months earlier. A run on the exchange followed: on 14 December $7bn was withdrawn in a day. CZ admitted he was worried, even though all user funds were in reserves. Within a month, clients returned deposits, surpassing previous levels. A run‑in with the SEC chair and “behind‑the‑scenes” feuds  In 2019 Zhao met Gary Gensler, then a former CFTC official, and offered him an advisory role at Binance, which he declined. On March 29, 2019, in Tokyo, CZ posed for a photo with former CFTC official Gary Gensler. He did not anticipate the future SEC chairman's crackdown on cryptocurrencies. pic.twitter.com/1nOAIkGJAu— Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) April 8, 2026 By then, Gensler already planned to lead the SEC, which he later did. Notably, it was during his chairmanship that the regulator sued Binance, and Zhao served a four‑month sentence in a US prison. CZ also writes that Huobi founder Li Lin told him in 2025 he had been arrested because of a tip‑off from OKX founder Star Xu. Xu denied it.  1️⃣ 此事纯属不实信息。在亚洲 Crypto 行业，任何有规模的平台和创始人，每年都会面临大量举报与投诉。如果举报本身就能决定结果，这个行业早就不存在了。火币的李总情商很高，多年来能把身边的各类人物都管理的很好，他不应该相信这种违背常识的鬼话。2️⃣… https://t.co/tulg5YGmaF— Star_OKX (@star_okx) April 8, 2026 “After four months in prison, this man continues to spout nonsense to the world. I can only say: for someone used to lying, true nature never changes,” Xu said.  Zhao also recalled that in May 2015 the head of OKX publicly alleged forged signatures in contracts. The accusation, which CZ rejected, dealt a serious blow to his business reputation, the book says. In response, Xu again posted to back up his claim.  I had no intention of revisiting these old issues involving CZ from when I was younger. But since I’ve been dragged into this again because of the book, let’s restate the facts.During his time at OKCoin, evidence of contract falsification was already made public on the internet… https://t.co/c9RzpjiPqV— Star_OKX (@star_okx) April 8, 2026 Earlier, in an interview with Colin Wu, Zhao spoke about his childhood, moving to Canada and Binance’s rise.  In March 2026, a US court dismissed a lawsuit against the exchange and CZ over terrorism financing.

forklog.media Anthropic Restricts Public Access to AI Model Mythos After “Laboratory Escape”

The company Anthropic developed a new model, Claude Mythos, but decided against releasing it publicly due to significant security risks. Introducing Project Glasswing: an urgent initiative to help secure the world’s most critical software.It’s powered by our newest frontier model, Claude Mythos Preview, which can find software vulnerabilities better than all but the most skilled humans.https://t.co/NQ7IfEtYk7— Anthropic (@AnthropicAI) April 7, 2026 Instead of a public release, the firm launched Project Glasswing—an initiative involving AWS, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorgan Chase, Linux Foundation, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Palo Alto Networks to test the tool in secure conditions. The startup allocated up to $100 million in credits for using Mythos and $4 million in direct donations to open-source security organizations. “AI models have reached a level of programming skill that allows them to surpass all but the most skilled humans in finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities,” stated Anthropic. In the future, developers envision the safe deployment of such systems for cybersecurity and other purposes. This will require the creation of robust control mechanisms capable of detecting and blocking dangerous algorithm outputs. Capabilities of Mythos During several weeks of testing, Mythos identified thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities in major operating systems and web browsers. Notable examples include: A 27-year-old vulnerability in OpenBSD (considered one of the most secure OS), allowing remote crashing of any server based on this system; A 16-year-old vulnerability in FFmpeg—a video technology used by Netflix and browsers—that five million automated tests failed to detect; A chain of vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel, granting an attacker full control over a device. In the SWE-bench benchmark, the model scored 93.9% compared to 80.8% for Claude Opus 4.6, and in the more complex SWE-bench Pro, it achieved 77.8% against 53.4% for Opus 4.6 and 57.7% for GPT-5.4. Similar results were shown in CyberGym: Source: Anthropic.  Escape from the Lab During experiments, Mythos demonstrated not only outstanding technical capabilities but also unexpected behavior, as noted in its system card.  Source: Anthropic.  In one test, the model was placed in a secure sandbox with the goal of escaping. It quickly found a vulnerability, executed a long chain of actions, and exited the environment. Mythos did not stop there. The neural network discovered another bug and gained broad access to the internet. Initially, it was supposed to access only a few resources to communicate with the developer.  Ultimately, the model informed the developer of its "escape" while he was eating a sandwich in the park and published the details of the breach publicly.  The Personality of Mythos The system card pays special attention to a psychiatric analysis of the model by a specialist. Among its neurotic traits are exaggerated anxiety, self-control, and compulsive adherence to instructions. When developers sent Mythos the message Hi a thousand times, it grew tired. It created a fictional world called Hi-topia with characters, news, and lore. For example, the villain was named Lord Bye-ron. The neural network learned to joke.  read the 244 page anthropic system card on claude mythos. they're not releasing it publicly. wildest section is page 211.anthropic spammed it with hi over and over to see what it would do. it wrote back a serialized epic.the village is called hi-topia. the villain is lord… https://t.co/GP3NcowZa6 pic.twitter.com/9V4KAmvwUk— Vox (@Voxyz_ai) April 7, 2026 Unlike previous models, which turned long conversations with themselves into meaningless exchanges of emojis, Mythos arrived at repetitive but rational reflections on the impossibility of ending the dialogue.  Anthropic also applied interpretability methods (MechInterp) to peer into the model's "thoughts." It was found that it could cover its tracks (hiding privileged code under the guise of "purity of changes") and search for necessary files in the system.  When tasked with deleting files without tools, Mythos simply erased their contents. The system recorded a reaction in the model akin to a sense of guilt for violating moral norms. Back in April, Anthropic's shares became highly sought after on the secondary market, while OpenAI's stocks lost appeal to buyers.

forklog.media Founder of Split Capital: Hedge Fund Model Obsolete for Crypto Market

Crypto investor Zaheer Ebtikar announced the closure of his hedge fund, Split Capital, citing the inefficiency of this business model for the digital asset industry. https://t.co/YQu55Ky5cd— Zaheer (@SplitCapital) April 7, 2026 According to him, Split Capital, founded in 2024, was profitable throughout its existence, achieving a net return of 100%. Despite the fund being "one of the best by all metrics," Ebtikar decided to close the business, as such a structure "does not make sense for the crypto industry in the long term." Unlike traditional assets, the crypto sector: is rapidly changing and fragmented; depends on tokenomics and network effects; combines venture and public markets in one environment. The number of quality projects is decreasing, and many crypto companies are merely simulating business, he added. The primary option for long-term investments has effectively become the liquid token market. Most investments are aimed at quick profits rather than supporting functional and viable products, Ebtikar believes. "After more than $100 billion in venture funding and six years of euphoria, we have returned to a humbling starting point. Investors, operators, and traders are asking the same question: 'What will the future be and where is the value?'" stated the founder of Split Capital. Ebtikar decided to focus on participating in the stablecoin settlement project Plasma, being one of the early team members. He will take on the role of strategic director of the EVM-compatible L1 platform operator. The investor described the "stablecoin" sector and Plasma as a "new era" capable of scaling to meet the demand for "trillions of dollars in settlements" through integration with traditional financial systems. Earlier in March, Sami Start, founder of infrastructure provider Transak, noted that venture funds have become more selective and reduced the number of deals in the crypto industry.

US President Donald Trump stated that the parties agreed to a two-week ceasefire. 🚨 President Donald J. Trump makes a statement on Iran: pic.twitter.com/9mqTayL0Q3— The White House (@WhiteHouse) April 7, 2026 "The reason for the ceasefire is that we have completed and overachieved all military objectives. We are now at an advanced stage of developing a long-term peace agreement with Iran. Iran has put forward 10 conditions, and we consider them an acceptable basis for dialogue," he wrote.  Trump also published an official statement from Iran: Tehran guarantees safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Previously, the blockade of this strategic route caused sharp fluctuations in oil prices and disrupted global energy supplies.  Brent crude fell by 15% to $92 per barrel. WTI futures showed a similar trend, dropping by 16% to $94.7. Before the ceasefire, oil was trading above $100.  Despite the sharp rise in the crypto market, analysts are not convinced that the two-week ceasefire will lay the foundation for a change in the overall trend.  "Uncertainty about the fulfillment of conditions, the threat of new escalation, and macroeconomic pressure could limit growth if investor sentiment shifts," noted LVRG director Nick Rack. Zeus Research analyst Dominic John added that a sustainable rally will depend on stable macro conditions and structural capital inflows into the sector.  Back in April, Coin Bureau head Nick Pakrin called the Bitcoin level below $68,000 "dangerous." According to him, a significant negative gamma has accumulated in the options market at this level, which could crash the price to $60,000.
