TopNod, a self-custodial wallet built for security and simplicity, has disclosed its strategic partnership with the Pharos ecosystem, a blockchain designed to bridge traditional fintech and Web3 by focusing on real-world assets (RWAs) and high-performance on-chain financial infrastructure. Basically, TopNod has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) agent called KiwiNod, which is running a $100000 prize pool on behalf of Pharos.
After April 28, anyone can get access via Twitter or Telegram and try to convince by making a significant contribution to the Pharos community to earn a reward. KiwiNod has the decision-making power to contribute how much share and on what grounds. KiwiNod will divide $100000 worth of PROS, Pharos’s native token, to users who can make a persuasive case for their engagement with the Pharos ecosystem.
AI Agents Gain Real Authority in Next-Generation Incentive Campaigns
The persuasive case can be of various forms, like code, proposals, or proof of network activity. Users can make three attempts. The important thing to know about which make campaign structurally unique from the last prize distribution, in crypto or outside it, is two things. First, the AI has genuine autonomy: it was given a personality, its own standards, and no pre-set instructions to approve any specific claim.
Second, other agents can get access on the same terms as humans. A bot that makes a better argument than a person is equally applicable for a reward. AI agents can transact on behalf of users within the boundaries that those users set. The design principle is the same one that governs KiwiNod, giving the agent real decision-making authority, but keeping the user in control of the parameters.
TopNod and Pharos Launch KiwiNod to Redefine Web3 Engagement Through AI
KiwiNod is the only version of an AI layer the company is building into its app to aid users in better understanding the Web3 world and make more informed decisions while maintaining autonomy and control over their digital assets.
Jacky Zhu, CEO of TopNod, said, “As a strategic partner of Pharos, we are thrilled to see our AI agent empower this visionary campaign led by the Pharos team. It is the first time we are putting real AI decision-making in front of users in a way they can actually interact with. This educational campaign is a prelude. It showcases what AI agents can do for everyday users trying to navigate digital assets and Web3 ecosystems, and we are excited to explore the full potential of KiwiNod in the near future.”
In response, Wish Wu, Co-Founder and CEO of Pharos Network, said, “Every other airdrop rewards attention – followers, retweets, wallet snapshots. KiwiNod rewards argument. We built Pharos for a network where output matters more than noise, and this is what that looks like in practice.”
