MegaCryptoPolis Rebrands as MCPOLIS Ahead of Planned AI Agents
Blockchain game MegaCryptoPolis has announced a rebrand to MCPOLIS. It is preparing to introduce autonomous AI agents that can play alongside people in its persistent virtual city. The new name combines the original game’s initials with Model Context Protocol. Source: https://www.blockchaingamer.biz/news/43121/megacryptopolis-rebrands-mcpolis-ai-agent-players/

Anthropic Reports a Linux Exploit Written by Claude
Anthropic reported that Claude wrote an exploit capable of remotely attacking Linux servers. According to the company, it could run commands as root on servers with a multipath TCP listener without credentials or user interaction. The case illustrates a security challenge posed by AI systems that can find vulnerabilities and write exploit code. Source: https://decrypt.co/382375/claude-built-linux-exploit-bug-ubuntu
On-Chain Data
Ethereum chain TVL: $43.64B [Source: DefiLlama] (as of Nov 03, 2026 06:30 JST) TVL describes the value of assets deposited on a chain. It should be distinguished from game user counts or revenue.
Take
These stories show three separate developments: plans for AI agents in a blockchain game, growth in stablecoin settlement, and AI’s ability to produce exploit code. My reading is that new game experiences should be considered alongside the payment systems and software security that support them. MCPOLIS is still preparing to introduce its agents, so their effect on actual play remains unknown. Visa’s figures cover stablecoin settlement broadly and do not measure Web3 game activity.
