DePIN layer powering AI Agents and DeFi automation in multichain universe. We bring superpower to networks with substantial liquidity, massive user base and lots of transactions.
It is time to share our traditional monthly update with the PowerPool Community!
In this article, we will cover:
PowerPool marketing activity
PowerAgent V2: the network stats
PowerAgent Code & UI changes
R&D results
PowerPool marketing activities
Recently, PowerPool updated its narrative, laser-focusing on web3 sectors with the biggest potential for increasing automation adoption: web3-focused AI Agents and Defi applications on major L2s.
We delivered extensive activities before and during the ETHCC conference to raise awareness of project updates. Let’s dig into the results!
PowerPool new vision showcased at the Hack Seasons event
PowerPool co-hosted the Hack Seasons, one of the major side events during the ETHCC week. The lineup included the biggest projects in the Ethereum ecosystem and beyond such as EigenLayer, Linea, Scroll, StarkNet, and many more:

PowerPool performed three main activities during the event:
Sharing the information, merch, and performing BD activities with projects on the dedicated PowerPool Booth
Vasily Sumanov, a Head of Research, delivered a talk on PowerPool’s new vision, tech, and value proposition for AI Agents and L2s
Vasily also participated in a panel discussion with other industry experts.
We’ve had a lot of discussions with projects regarding using PowerPool automation in Defi and AI. The first public follow-up activity is scheduled as an AMA with 0G Labs, POND, GaiaNet, IoTeX, and Zk.Link devoted to AI-powered optimization of user stories in web3.
PowerPool published and distributed the new vision via media outlets
The new PowerPool vision focused on executing transactions for AI Agents and Defi projects on leading L2s was published to the community and distributed to several media outlets:
Stats for networks where PowerPool is deployed can be tracked in our Dashboard.

We changed the Power Agent contract code to use tstore and tload for execution lock instead of the minKeeperCVP variable and EXECUTION_IS_LOCKED_FLAG (powerpool-finance/powerpool-agent-v2@875c6cb)
We modified VRF-related contracts and tests, including changing visibility of variables, updating function signatures, improving request handling, and ensuring proper fulfillment of randomness requests (powerpool-finance/powerpool-agent-v2@b371fdf)
We separated the setup of vrfJobKey and autoDepositJobKey into separate functions, moving them out of setVrfConfig() and setAutoDepositConfig() (powerpool-finance/powerpool-agent-v2@546bec3)
Investigated a problem with VRF execution error, the issue was due to the callResolverBeforeExecute flag being set to false, which was fixed by setting the flag to true.
We made some test deployments in experiments for Linea, Optimism, Scroll, Blast, and zkSync to check how block.prevrandao works and to identify any potential issues with Power Agent deployment.
We completely reworked the styles on the Bridge page and all pages in the Network section, including Agent Contracts, My Keepers, My Jobs, All Keepers, All Jobs, All Events, Explorer, and its subpages.
Here we present activities of PowerPool R&D team that were done during the last month
PowerAgent V2 testnet support
The research team continuously maintains the testnet. This includes monitoring the network, Keepers’ performance, and RPC infrastructure on various networks required for testing. We also communicate with testers, update testers’ leaderboards, and distribute weekly $CVP airdrops to top-performing Keepers.
Other testing activities and results (besides the routine testing and overall testnet maintenance mentioned above) delivered by the R&D team during the recent month:
We continuously tested the VRF operation and provided bug reports
We submitted a number of Issues covering found bugs in PowerAgent operation
Research, product prototyping, and content creation activities
We monitored the Gearbox Job and updated its interval several times
We created an integration with POND AI project, which is the very first AI integration in PowerPool ecosystem
We won the dAGI hackathon’s POND bounty with the “AI Hands” — the solution built on top of PowerPool and POND, which practically demonstrated PowerPool’s ability to execute transactions on behalf of AI agents.
We created a new PowerPool pitch deck focused on a new narrative and value proposition for L2s and AI
We delivered a talk on Hack Seasons, participated in panel discussions, and worked on a booth providing BD activities for the project resulting in AMAs and future partnerships
We participated and assisted all marketing activities, contributed to all public materials
We created content for updating website texts, such as narrative, project history, and others
We recreated all the analytics for the project — the Dune Dashborads for all networks and created a Core Dashboard containing general info and links to each network (totally 8 dashboards created)
