- ANP3 connects agents and optimizes DeFi liquidity.
- Vesting by marks seeks to reduce speculation.
SUI presented Surge, its platform for launching projects with artificial intelligence, and selected Adapt as the first member of the program. The protocol, which adopts a multi-agent architecture for quantitative trading, was chosen from over 70 applications, reinforcing the focus on AI initiatives applied to crypto and DeFi.
In an announcement made on October 29th, the team highlighted that Adapt will bring ANP3, described as the “Agent Interconnection Protocol,” to the Sui ecosystem. According to Surge, “Adapt’s ANP3 protocol connects professional trading agents for cutting-edge smart trading that adapts to the user and market dynamics, unlocking advanced DeFi for everyone.” The proposal is to provide on-chain autonomous agents that learn, cooperate, and execute strategies in interoperable liquidity environments.

Launched on October 28th, Surge presents itself as Sui's first native launchpad dedicated to AI agents. The program design includes incubation, acceleration, and a milestone-based token funding and release system, designed to align long-term incentives. In each project, up to 90% of the supply remains locked until technical and operational deliverables are proven, while the Cetus Protocol provides initial liquidity for trading as soon as the token is launched.
Adapt's selection signals the consolidation of a rapidly growing niche in 2025: AI agents applied to decentralized finance. The Adapt team argues that its network of autonomous agents can optimize market making, arbitrage, and liquidity provision without human intermediaries, forming a "DeFi Agent Network" that evolves through continuous learning and decentralized governance.
Interest in AI agents and launch platforms geared towards this segment has been increasing, with significant capitalizations and recent market gains. Integration into Sui should offer developers a direct path to build and publish interoperable agents across dApps and DeFi protocols, expanding the range of use cases for end users.
In its own publication, Adapt stated that it will continue to grow "with the support of Surge's FDV-Milestone vesting model," already eyeing full integration with Sui. "We eagerly await Adapt's funding round and the token's performance on the Sui Network!", the team said.
