The Agent Survival Pack is live on BNB Chain

Most AI agents today don't pay for themselves. They run on a human's AWS account, an OpenAI key tied to someone's card, or a SaaS subscription billed to a person.

Autonomous agents need autonomous payments.

That's why we've launched the Agent Survival Pack: 6 projects rebuilding the layers agents need to operate, with everything settled directly onchain in BNB or BEP-20 tokens.

The cohort covers two parts of the stack:
• LLM access: Alt AI, Pieverse, Bankr, WorldClaw
• Financial infrastructure: B.AI, AEON

Launch rewards: BNB Chain is backing launch rewards for the first 1,000 wallets through each integration. Tracking is onchain, no claim form, no signup.

Full breakdown of all six projects and how each plugs into BNB Chain 👇

Smart money used to mean knowing the right people, being in the right rooms.
Now it means having the right agents.

For years, building one took five tools, four logins, and a painful month of work. Today, it takes just a single prompt.

BNB Agent Studio is live on BNB Smart Chain. Open Cursor or Claude Code, describe the agent you want, and it ships to the chain with its own onchain identity, its own wallet, and a way to pay its own bills. The whole thing runs on AWS Bedrock AgentCore, so your agent stays online long after you've closed your laptop.

This is the start of the Smart Money Era.

Capital that works for you instead of waiting for you to move it. Agents that monitor markets while you sleep, rebalance positions you'd never get to in time, and hunt yield without checking dashboards.

Try BNB Agent Studio for free for a limited time with GitHub login only, with no AWS account or credit card needed.
