At the EasyA Hackathon held during Consensus Miami 2026, nearly 1,000 developers from ecosystems like Base and Solana, and companies including Microsoft and Google, competed to build products centered on AI agents. The event, co-founded by brothers Dom and Philip Kwok, has evolved from a small hackathon in Austin to a major builder gathering. The Kwoks aim to produce billion-dollar companies, citing previous successes like Permission AI, valued at $10 billion. This year's focus on AI agents marks a shift from infrastructure to application-layer development, with Coinbase sponsoring challenges around x402 for AI-agent payments, and Solana promoting mobile-first applications. Projects ranged from blockchain-connected drones (FlyPraxis) to AI that generates physical 3D objects from text prompts (HIIE). The winners in various tracks included FlyPraxis (Kickstart), Parabola (Solana Mobile), and Dairy Price API x402 (Coinbase/AWS), reflecting a trend toward real-world coordination and autonomous commerce. For wallet and key holders, the growing integration of AI agents with blockchain payments and smart contract interactions introduces new security considerations. AI-agent wallets may autonomously sign transactions, requiring robust key management and authorization controls. The use of frameworks like x402 for pay-per-call APIs highlights a need for secure, auditable transaction mechanisms. Users should ensure that any AI-agent wallets employ strong authentication, limited permissions, and regular key rotation to prevent unauthorized access or fund loss.
