NetX August Recap

post image

Cross-Chain Connectivity, Real-World Payments, and DAO-Led Development

In July, NetX Network began its phased rollout.

In August, development around the mainnet moved forward on several fronts. With the official launch of NetX Bridge, existing ecosystem features began migrating to the mainnet. Stablecoin payments were successfully tested at a Lawson store in Tokyo, while the SaaS payment solution entered the productization stage. The DAO community also became more deeply involved in building the network through testnet campaigns, Community Talks, and on-chain rewards.

I. Network: Expanding Mainnet Access and Strengthening the Ecosystem Foundation

1. Ecosystem Features Begin Migrating to NetX Network | August 6

AI Engineer, AI Model Bundle, and ecosystem-partner features will gradually migrate from the official website to the NetX mainnet environment.

Users who hold ecosystem partner NFTs will also receive mainnet support in line with future partnership plans. Products, users, and assets will progressively come together within a unified network environment.

2. Upgraded $NETX Economic Model | August 11

The updated economic model further clarified the primary sources of demand for $NETX, including:

  • Network gas fees

  • The AI Agent Economy

  • Validator staking

  • Multi-token payments

  • Enterprise resource usage

  • Revenue from stablecoin settlement

As developers, validators, enterprises, projects, merchants, and users join the network, $NETX will serve practical functions across gas payments, service access, settlement, and network incentives.

3. Why the Agent Economy Still Needs a Public Network | August 10

In his article, @anbangr explained that the value of a public network cannot be measured solely by the cost of running a database.

As large numbers of AI agents begin to collaborate, transact, and settle payments autonomously, they will need public infrastructure that is not controlled by any single organization — one where rules are transparent, execution is verifiable, and settlement outcomes cannot be altered arbitrarily.

This is the foundation NetX Network is building.

4. NetX Bridge Goes Live | August 24

NetX Bridge now connects BNB Smart Chain with the NetX Network mainnet.

During its initial stage, the bridge primarily allows developers to obtain small amounts of gas for deployment testing and application interactions. As the mainnet ecosystem continues to open up, bridge limits and supported use cases will be expanded.

The mainnet, block explorer, developer tools, and bridge are now live. AI Engineer, AI Model Bundle, ecosystem partner applications, agent services, AgentCity, and payment features will be integrated with the mainnet in the next stages.

5. Next Phase of Development Announced | August 27

Following the launch of NetX Bridge, mainnet development entered its next phase.

Key priorities include launching validator recruitment, migrating existing ecosystem features, working with the DAO community to build the mainnet, advancing SaaS application design, and providing developers with broader technical support.

Applications for developer incentives will be reviewed by the NetX Foundation.

II. Payments: From In-Store Testing to a Standardized Service

6. Successful Payment Trial at Lawson Gate City Ohsaki Atrium | August 17

Netstars successfully completed an in-store trial of Stablecoin Pay at the Lawson Gate City Ohsaki Atrium store in Tokyo.

The proof of concept connected Lawson’s existing POS system to StarPay, allowing customers to pay by scanning a QR code with MetaMask. The trial covered USDC, USDT, and JPYC, with transactions validated across Solana, Morph, and Polygon.

Payment confirmation took approximately five seconds from the initial scan. Store staff continued using the existing checkout process, with no need to rebuild or replace the current payment system.

NetX provided the underlying technical support required to connect multichain assets with a real-world retail environment.

7. Stablecoin Payments Move Toward a Standardized Service | August 19

Following successful on-site validation, the next priority is turning the payment solution into a market-ready product.

The multichain connectivity, payment confirmation, and merchant-system integration capabilities demonstrated during the trial will be developed into a configurable and reusable SaaS service. This will reduce the cost of building separate integrations for each enterprise or retailer.

III. Community: Campaigns, Testing, and Contributor Incentives

8. Testnet Battle Begins | August 14

The Testnet Battle brought together two competing alliances:

  • AI Agent Alliance

  • Open Payment Alliance

To participate, community members joined the official Telegram group, claimed testnet tokens, completed a transaction on the NetX testnet, and submitted their transaction record. The alliance with the higher number of valid participating wallets won the battle.

Through this campaign, more community members gained hands-on experience using the faucet, transferring tokens, and interacting with the testnet.

9. Community Rewards Distributed Through NetX Network | August 13

Rewards from recent community campaigns were distributed directly to participants’ wallets on the NetX Network mainnet.

Going forward, community incentives will be progressively integrated with mainnet usage, allowing participants to become familiar with wallets, gas fees, and on-chain interactions while claiming their rewards.

10. NetXDAO Community Talk Launches | August 26

The first Community Talk focused on a central question within the Agent Economy: which layer matters most — identity, wallets, payments, reputation, or agent marketplaces?

Community members shared a range of perspectives on trust, transactions, task-specific capabilities, and collaboration efficiency. Selected insights will be compiled and considered in future research, product development, and ecosystem design.

Community Talk will take place every Wednesday, with DAO contributor incentives available to eligible participants.

11. A New Round of DAO Contributor Rewards | August 28

NetX launched a new round of DAO Contributor Rewards.

Original content, reposts, long-form posts, videos, memes, community discussions, and onboarding new members are all recognized as forms of DAO contribution. NetX will continue to support members who consistently help build the community through contributor incentives.

The DAO’s growth depends on long-term participation. Every piece of content, discussion, and shared update helps more people understand the network and ecosystem NetX is building.

https://x.com/netx_world/status/2093254911727226993

Throughout August, NetX made steady progress across multiple fronts — from launching the cross-chain bridge and opening access to the mainnet, to completing an in-store stablecoin payment trial at Lawson, migrating ecosystem features, expanding DAO-led discussions, and distributing contributor rewards on-chain.

Together, these developments are turning the vision of the Agent Economy + real-world payments into infrastructure that can operate in practice.

Thank you to every partner, builder, DAO contributor, and community member for your continued support and participation.

In September, NetX will continue advancing the validator program, ecosystem migration, developer support, and the SaaS payment service — while bringing more real-world applications onto the NetX Mainnet.

Let’s keep building together. 🐊🚀
