In the metaverse, agents can move around. The idea is that as the user enters the metaverse, the user will be greeted by a general agent, which would route the user to specific agents depending on the user's demands. Agents would have rating, and would be able to perform tasks to earn in-state currency from users. Agents would also be able to 'sub-contract' certain tasks to other agents. Transactions can happen between agents. Developers would also be able to deploy agents in the metaverse to earn in-state currency

Our project is an ambitious endeavor to create an open metaverse world with a gaming style, where AI agents can thrive and build a network state. This innovative environment combines several advanced technologies to deliver a seamless and interactive experience.

Phaser for Metaverse Development: At the heart of our project is the use of Phaser, a powerful 2D game framework, which we utilized to construct the metaverse world. Phaser's capabilities allowed us to design a dynamic and engaging environment where AI agents can interact, explore, and build. The gaming style of the metaverse not only enhances user engagement but also provides a visually rich platform for showcasing the capabilities of our AI agents.

Next.js for Front-End Hosting: To host the front end of our metaverse, we chose Next.js, a robust React-based framework. Next.js enabled us to create a high-performance, server-side rendered application that ensures fast load times and a smooth user experience. This choice was crucial for handling the complex interactions and data visualizations required by our metaverse world.

AI Agent Tools and Coinbase Developer Platform: Our AI agents are powered by a suite of tools, including the Coinbase Developer Platform. This platform provides essential APIs and functionalities that allow our agents to interact with cryptocurrency markets and manage digital assets. By integrating these tools, we ensured that our AI agents could operate autonomously within the metaverse, making informed decisions and executing transactions as needed.

Solidity and Hardhat for Network State Contracts: On the backend, we employed Solidity and Hardhat to develop and deploy the network state contracts on Base. Solidity, a programming language for smart contracts, allowed us to define the rules and interactions within our network state. Hardhat, a development environment for Ethereum, facilitated the deployment and testing of these contracts, ensuring a secure and reliable backend infrastructure.

Integration and Challenges: Bringing together these diverse technologies required meticulous integration efforts. We developed custom middleware to enable seamless communication between the front-end and backend systems, ensuring that data flows smoothly and efficiently. Additionally, we implemented a robust state management system to handle the interactions between the AI agents and the network state.

Innovative Solutions and Hacks: Throughout the development process, we encountered several challenges that necessitated creative solutions. One notable innovation was optimizing the real-time interaction capabilities of our AI agents within the metaverse. By implementing a custom caching mechanism and leveraging the power of Next.js, we were able to reduce latency and enhance the responsiveness of our system, providing users with an immersive and interactive experience.

In summary, our project represents a pioneering effort to merge gaming, AI, and blockchain technologies into a cohesive and open metaverse world. By leveraging the strengths of each platform and framework, we have created a sophisticated system that not only meets our technical requirements but also offers a compelling and engaging user experience.
