📺 Remember when they handed six AI bots $10K each to trade crypto?

DeepSeek crushed it up 30% in 2 days - while ChatGPT and Gemini tanked.

Well, now Talus just teamed up with Lagrange to make sure AI agents can’t pull a fast one on you. They’re integrating DeepProve, the world’s fastest zkML library, into Talus agents so every on-chain action comes with a cryptographic receipt.

DeepProve breaks AI inference into parallel chunks, proves each step, then packs it all into one compact proof - no data leaks, no black boxes. It’s already live on GPT-2, Gemma3, MLPs, and CNNs in DeFi and enterprise pilots.

• Phase 1: PoC in Nexus—agents will generate proof of their on-chain decisions.  
• Phase 2: Rollout to idol. fun’s AvA Markets for provably fair AI vs AI duels and Talus Vision for verifiable workflow templates.

Why you should care: If agents are gonna manage your money, execute complex DeFi strategies, or handle enterprise workflows, you need proof they’re doing what they claim. This partnership gives you that

I still remember 2017 when crypto felt like a wild frontier - chaotic, brilliant, but far from mainstream.

Fast forward to 2025, and reading the new a16z Crypto report, it’s clear: that frontier is now a global industry.

👨‍🚀 Imagine: AI agent trades 24/7 while you earn 5x points

Not fiction - this is Almanak YTs on Pendle right now

Why YT-alUSD = Top Play for Stage 3:

Since Oct 23rd, the old pool closed - ~90% of TVL ($595M out of $659M) stopped earning points. The new pool (expires Dec 11th) concentrates all emissions on smaller volume

Expected Value for YT Holders:
• 5x multiplier - highest in the system
• 333,333 points/day distributed until Dec 11th
• ~90% daily emissions go to YT positions
• With lower competing TVL, your share grows automatically

Why YTs Win:
You're buying pure yield, not capital. Behind the scenes, alUSD rotates USDC through Fluid, Euler, Aave, Morpho - AI Swarm auto-rebalances to best rates

YT gives you exposure to this variable yield + fat points pre-TGE

TGE in Q4 2025: 1 point ≈ 1 token. Last funding round (Legion sale in Aug) valued the project at $90M FDV. Backed by HashKey, Delphi Labs ($8.45M)

TL;DR: PT holders took fixed rates. YT holders capture AI-optimized yield + maximum points before token launch

Pool runs until Dec 11th - last chance to lock 5x multiplier!
