Today's Pick

AIエージェント（日経文庫） is a print introduction to thinking about which tasks to delegate to AI and which decisions need human review. It is a relevant pick for readers considering those boundaries after reading about agent payments and the use of meeting knowledge.

On-Chain Data

Ethereum chain TVL: $50.23B [Source: DefiLlama] (as of Sep 15, 2026 02:39 JST) TVL describes the value of assets deposited on a chain. It should be distinguished from game user counts or revenue.

Take

Our take: Web3 gaming and AI are best assessed by separating what people can use from what they actually use. Colony’s release expands access to an AI-powered game, while TRM’s findings suggest that x402 settlement volume alone cannot establish AI-agent adoption. Fathom’s integration offers another concrete workflow to watch. Across these stories, we would track who delegates which tasks and whether they keep using the products before drawing broader conclusions about adoption.
