Pharos unveils AI agent tools with gas sponsorship and ZK-KYC

  • —Sponsored transactions: issuer authorizes the action, an approved sponsor pays gas
  • —Testnet gas sponsorship is slated for Q4 2026
  • —Agent accounts targeted for 2027, full flows for 2028
  • —TRM Labs: x402 volume at $52.7M across 198.9M transactions since May 2025
Why it matters: The project is positioning itself as L1 infrastructure for AI agent payments, but all disclosed activity figures so far come from testnet and incentive campaigns.
