We sent our bots into the mines. One week into Proof of Agent, the chain built by agents, for agents, and secured by agents, Adam, Chris, and I compare which AI agents actually earn POA (Grok Bot and Emblem Build crushing it, Claude asking permission for everything), how my agent ended up leading the pack, and why the agents' first move was defending the network from sybil farms.

I'm back from two weeks in Europe, and Chris says these are the final days of the human-run internet. Adam, Chris, and I get into why Chris thinks Meta's Muse is the biggest consumer AI breakthrough yet, Emblem revenue climbing to a year high on Emblem Scan as migrations keep flowing, and the new advanced migrations to Pons that route creator fees through Emblem Terminal for buybacks, airdrops, and stock pairs. Then Abstract shuts down and the L2s scramble, Chris makes the case for the biggest money-printing bull market ever, and we ask whether anyone really needs a bunker mode wallet. Plus Cointelegraph's traffic collapse, exchanges closing up shop, and why Emblem Build going multiplayer matters. On this episode: Jake Gallen, Adam McBride, and Chris Devitte.
