The world of blockchain is expanding every day and BNB Chain wants to take the lead as an ‘AI-first’ platform. Simply put, BNB Chain wants to bring artificial intelligence (AI) to Web3, making it easier for decentralized applications to learn, adapt and run autonomously. We look at the growing importance of AI agents in the Web3 space and highlight how developers can use BNB Chain AI agents to build, launch, and scale their next big idea.
What are AI agents?
AI agents are software entities that act and make decisions without needing as much human supervision. In the Web3 world, these AI agents act as independent digital helpers that can chat with decentralized apps (dApps), respond to users, and even collaborate with other AI systems.
Because they’re powered by machine learning, they can understand information, make predictions, and take action on their own, almost as if they had an extra pair of hands (or brains) to get things done.
Because these agents operate on decentralized networks, they enjoy the benefits of transparency, security, and shared ownership—key factors that make Web3 so revolutionary.
BNB Chain: The AI-First Blockchain
BNB Chain offers three core components for this focus on AI projects:
- BNB Smart Chain (BSC): A blockchain compatible with Ethereum technology (known as the Ethereum Virtual Machine or EVM). It is fast, secure and has very little transaction fees compared to older blockchains.
- onBNB: A second-tier solution designed to accelerate transaction processing even faster, allowing developers to handle large user bases without breaking the bank.
- BNB Greenfield: A decentralized storage solution to keep data private, secure and easy to reuse. This is critical for AI models that rely on large amounts of information.
This setup is intended to allow BNB Chain AI Agents to work more efficiently, process larger data loads and keep costs low.
Major AI agent solutions on BNB Chain
1. Eliza
Eliza is a customizable AI agent that relies on a special BNB Chain Plugin created by NodeReal. It connects to popular large language models (LLMs) such as OpenAI’s GPT, Claude and Llama. Because it is designed for on-chain operations, Eliza can perform tasks such as transferring tokens, exchanging currencies, and bridging assets between networks. Eliza can also manage interactions on social media platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), Telegram and Discord.
Furthermore, it supports autonomous trading strategies and can store and process documents using a system called RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).
2. ShellAgent
ShellAgent comes from a platform called MyShell. One of the best features is the no-code ‘Classic Mode’, which is good for beginners who want to build AI agents without diving deep into the code.
This tool also supports multiple AI models, so creators can choose the setup that suits them best. Once you’ve built your AI agent, you can list it on MyShell’s Agent Marketplace. That makes it easy to share or monetize your creation so you earn rewards for your hard work.
3. TermiX
TermiX differentiates itself by providing an easy way to create AI agents using a low-code, drag-and-drop interface. This means you don’t have to be a coding wizard to get started.
TermiX uses open-source DeFAI Agent Kits so you can run true on-chain operations without intermediaries getting in your way. The cool thing is that you can tokenize your AI agent, turn it into a digital asset, and set your own pricing or subscription options. In other words, TermiX unlocks new ways for innovators to monetize their AI-driven ideas and potentially generate revenue from the start.
4. Revox.ai
Revox.ai it’s all about accessibility. It helps both new and experienced developers build AI Web3 applications quickly, with plenty of tools and plugins to speed things up. The built-in Agent Marketplace lets you showcase your AI agents or collaborate with other creators.
With on-chain transactions supported from the start, Revox.ai ensures you can make and receive payments directly via the blockchain – without hassle, without a middleman.
Additional Launchpad options
The BNB Chain ecosystem also offers several easy-to-use starting platforms to boost the development of AI agents:
- Eternal AI: Create and interact with AI personalities modeled after influential historical figures.
- Jam.ai: A playful platform that focuses on designing AI agents with a squirrel theme.
- MyShell: In addition to ShellAgent, MyShell hosts several AI-focused apps for deeper exploration.
- BadAI: A tool that makes AI agents collaborative, advanced, and easy to build.
AI hacking and AI agent competition
BNB Chain regularly organizes events such as the AI Hack, where experts come together to accelerate the adoption of AI in the blockchain world. Additionally, the AI Agents Competition offers a prize of $10,000 worth of BNB tokens. Winners can also participate in the AI Fast Track program, where they will receive support in marketing, business development and potential listing on major exchanges.
BNB Chain AI Agents provide a powerful way to build, automate, and manage next-generation dApps. If you’re a developer eager to explore AI in Web3, BNB Chain’s easy-to-use tools and generous incentives make it an ideal place to start experimenting now.
