Beyond the Framework: Expanding Into a Full Agentic AI Assistant in 2026
2026 will bring an important evolution for Adex AURA: growing from a framework to a full agentic AI assistant. In this article, you can learn more about our plans for the year.
2025 laid the groundwork for AURA, our AI agent framework. The AURA demo proved the concept’s power, successfully processing accounts worth millions and delivering high-value portfolio strategies.
In 2026, we are evolving. AURA is transitioning from a framework into a full, autonomous AI assistant that can be integrated directly into your Web3 wallet.
AURA adding intelligence to your wallet
Portfolio optimization was just the beginning. The true potential of Large Language Models (LLMs), especially in the context of wallet integration, lies in interactivity.
Our 2026 goal is to turn AURA into a proactive agent that doesn't just show you data but acts on it. Tightly integrated into your wallet.
We believe the true value of an AI assistant and agent, especially when it comes to real money, is in human-oversighted autonomy rather than full autonomy, such as the ability to automate human-initiated actions. This ensures you stay in full control while the AI handles the heavy lifting.
What can you ask AURA to do? Here are some examples:
- "Revoke all dangerous or unlimited approvals immediately."
- "Identify DeFi yield opportunities I’m currently missing."
- "Buy ADX with 200 ETH, but split it into multiple orders every 2 hours to minimize market impact." (Orders execute only if the target price remains stable).
- "Sell all dust tokens for USDC."
- "If BTC drops below $80k, sell 50% of my largest positions." (AURA will follow up to confirm which positions you prioritize).
- "Process this attached PDF invoice" or "Summarize the latest Messari report." and many more
Combined with Account Abstraction (AA) capabilities, AURA would allow you to securely authorize batches of AI-generated actions with a single signature. For example, if you would like to build a small portfolio of let’s say 4-5 altcoins, total worth of $2000, you’d usually need to perform each swap to buy each token separately. Thanks to AA, all those swaps can be queued and signed as one (e.g., 4 swaps of $500 each).
Furthermore, we have integrated x402 payments into our API, allowing programmatic payments in agent-to-agent and MCP workflows. AURA was always infra first product, and with x402 implemented, it can be autonomously accessed by other agents. In the future, new features such as agent-to-agent settlement flows, etc., will be available via the API too.

Brand refresh: a new identity
We will kick off 2026 with a comprehensive brand refresh. Expect a new logo and a fresh visual identity that reflects our evolution into the AI-agent space.
Thе new vibe will represent our commitment to a much better Web3 UX.
Revamped staking: introducing $stkADX
To align our tokenomics with AURA’s ecosystem (specifically token-curated DeFi lists), we are launching a singular, streamlined staking pool for $ADX.
- The $stkADX Token: This will be the new pool token, but with a simple 1:1 ratio. 1 $stkADX always equals 1 $ADX. As the pool earns rewards, your $stkADX balance grows automatically.
- Smart Staking Mechanics: Featuring variable lock times for boosted rewards, permit ERC-2612 support for gasless interactions, and enhanced security during un-staking windows.

Wallet integration: AI at your fingertips
AURA’s true value is unlocked when it lives inside your wallet. This native integration offers advantages that a standard web app simply cannot match:
- Trustless automation: By running in your wallet, the AI can execute actions without you ever authorising third parties (e.g, “if price reaches X then sell”).
- Total context: AURA has instant access to your portfolio composition, DeFi positions, transaction history, and address book.
- Clean interface: We are decluttering the wallet experience. Why build complex menus for dApp discovery when AURA can handle it through a simple prompt?
Strategic Partner: We are planning a deep integration with Ambire Wallet as soon as AURA’s assistant capabilities are fully versatile.
The road ahead: privacy-preserving local models
We believe in a future where your Web3 identity will not only be central to your financial life, but it will be used to access all of your digital data.
As such, it’s more important than ever to ensure that this identity is private. Every time any data is sent to a third-party, even if they’re trusted, takes us slightly further away from that ethos.
To solve this, we are developing a locally running model for the AURA assistant. This ensures that while the AI pulls global data (like the best USDT yields), your specific account information never leaves your device.
For users opting for remote models, we will still be employing and documenting industry-leading privacy-preserving techniques to ensure your data remains your own.
