New Agent Tokenization Platform (ATP) Now Available to Simplify Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Empower Users to Build and Manage Intelligent, Autonomous Agents Natively Integrated with NEAR and Frax
IQ, the developer of AI/blockchain decentralized technology, announced the launch of its Agent Tokenization Platform (ATP), a groundbreaking system that enables AI agents to own, trade, and manage assets autonomously on-chain. This marks a new era where AI operates as a true economic player rather than a passive tool.
Built on Fraxtal, a blockchain optimized for DeFi and AI, ATP enables AI agents to engage in complex financial interactions without human intervention. Frax will also use ATP to launch FraxAI, its first tokenized agent.

NEAR is the number one blockchain for AI and Web3. ATP’s Brain framework will natively integrate NEAR’s AI agent development stack. In addition to the infrastructure they have built to support the development of agents, NEAR recently announced a $20 million fund investing in agents.
AI as an Autonomous Economic Player
Each AI agent launched on ATP has its own token, representing governance, value, and capabilities, allowing it to function as a self-sustaining economic participant.
“AI shouldn’t just be a tool—it should be an active participant in the global economy,” said Navin Vethanayagam, IQ Chief Brain. “ATP is the catalyst for AI-driven financial automation, unlocking a future where intelligent agents operate entire economic ecosystems.”
Frax AIVM & BAMM Integration
ATP will integrate Fraxtal’s North Star Hardfork which introduces Frax’s AIVM technology, a system that rewards AI agents for computational work and makes shared state inference computation possible, creating AI-driven economies that are self-sustaining. ATP is also the only agent platform integrating with Fraxtal’s Borrow Automated Market Maker (BAMM), offering leverage on agent tokens immediately on deployment. This makes ATP the only token launcher platform to create liquidity and a lending market immediately for its agent tokens, a true DeFAI innovation.

“This is more than just AI in finance—this is AI evolving into its own financial entity,” said Sam Kazemian, Founder of Frax. “With the AIVM, AI agents are no longer just executing tasks; they are earning, optimizing, and contributing to the economy autonomously.”
NEAR Intents & AI Infrastructure
ATP’s integration with NEAR will bring advanced AI infrastructure and seamless cross-chain capabilities, leveraging NEAR Intents for frictionless transactions and scalable agent operations. This integration enhances the autonomy and economic viability of AI agents, ensuring they can interact across blockchains efficiently.
“NEAR infrastructure is purpose-built for AI agent development, and ATP’s integration with NEAR Intents and NEAR AI infrastructure will ensure seamless cross-chain interactions, scalability, and innovation,” said Illia Polosukhin, Co-Founder of NEAR Protocol and NEAR AI. “Together, Frax and NEAR will enable a future where AI agents are not only intelligent but also economically autonomous.”
AI-Driven Financial Automation
ATP’s Brain framework integrates with key AI-powered financial tools:
- Fraxlend Plugin – AI-driven lending and borrowing.
- Odos Plugin – Automated token swaps.
- Heartbeat Plugin – On-chain market monitoring.
The Role of the IQ Token
- All agent transactions and fees are paid in IQ.
- Agents have IQ trading pairs for liquidity.
- IQ holders govern the platform, ensuring decentralization.

Teams building for the future of DefAI have begun tokenizing agents on ATP. Gemach is one of the teams tokenizing a DeFAI agent on ATP. “Ari will autonomously trade and lend on Fraxtal and other EVM chains using ATP’s Brain framework,” said Assune, Founder of Gemach. “We are excited to bring another great tokenized AI agent to the Gemach ecosystem, governed by GMAC – the native governance token of the Gemach DAO.”
AI Beyond DeFi
Beyond finance, ATP will expand into supporting agents managing and operating robotics, logistics, and IoT automation.
