Grindery, supported by Binance Labs (now Yzi Labs), has launched Aventino, a permissionless payments layer designed for autonomous AI agents. Aventino offers a developer-centric infrastructure providing self-custodial smart wallets that empower AI agents to own wallets, transact, govern, and engage with blockchain protocols across platforms such as Telegram, WhatsApp, XMTP, and the open web.
Built on Ethereum's ERC4337 account abstraction protocol, Aventino enables developers to create AI agents using any large language model (LLM) and deploy them on any client or device. These agents can issue tokens, facilitate governance, and monetize activities via both fiat and crypto payments, establishing dynamic tokenized communities and new governance models.
The launch also introduces GX, Grindery’s universal gas token, facilitating cross-chain payments, governance, and agent-to-agent transactions. GX is essential for deploying and tokenizing new AI agents through bonding curves, supporting access and incubation for future AI builders.
Grindery is actively pursuing partnerships with LLM platforms, messaging clients, wallet providers, no- and low-code platforms, and blockchain protocols aiming to expand AI functionalities. The company invites developers to join the public beta phase, contributing to the evolution of decentralized, interoperable, and monetizable AI agents powered by crypto.
CEO Tim Delhaes emphasizes that Aventino is not just about intelligence but financial autonomy for AI agents, creating a novel layer between users and AI models akin to what mobile apps did for internet interaction. Grindery’s vision establishes the foundational rails for agentic AI that transact, govern, and evolve independently, unlocking real-world utility and governance in a crypto-powered future.
