Pharos AI Agent Carnival: 150,000 $PROS Prize Pool on KuCoin

Pharos Network has launched a global initiative called the "Create Like a PRO · Agent Carnival" with a prize pool of up to 150,000 $PROS. This six-week event celebrates the one-year anniversary of their public testnet launch. Here's the thing: Pharos aims to move AI agents from simple demonstrations to sustained, production-grade economic activity on its Layer 1 blockchain. They believe AI agents should act as autonomous economic actors, holding assets and coordinating with others. What's interesting is this carnival is their first large-scale operational test of AI agents. It marks a public stress test and developer evaluation of their AI Agent layer. The event uses Anvita Flow as a unified entry point, connecting various agent behaviors. It has two phases, starting with a "Developer Season" that includes a public hackathon running until July 6. This hackathon encourages builders to create reusable tools and production-grade primitives. The bottom line: This initiative could significantly advance how AI agents operate within a blockchain environment.
