Menese Protocol has expanded its push into AI-driven decentralised finance with a new integration that places its technology directly inside the OpenClaw ecosystem. The update introduces Menese as a native plugin, removing the need for external skill files that previously handled connections between agents and blockchain services.
The move allows autonomous agents built on the platform to interact with a wide range of networks while operating entirely on-chain. According to the project, agents can now access more than 50 blockchains in a non-custodial setup, including networks such as ICP, Solana, Cardano, Ethereum and Bitcoin.
Through the integration, agents gain the ability to swap tokens, provide liquidity and access lending functions. One feature drawing attention is a borrowing option advertised at a fixed zero per cent interest rate. The protocol says these functions can run continuously through automated agents, enabling activity around the clock without relying on external infrastructure.
Projects working at the intersection of artificial intelligence and decentralised finance have increased in number during the past year. Developers argue that autonomous agents could manage complex financial operations, from portfolio adjustments to liquidity management, with limited human input. Critics point to security risks and governance questions, particularly when financial decisions are delegated to automated systems.
Menese’s approach centres on keeping the agent logic and execution on-chain. The protocol says this structure allows agents to operate continuously while retaining direct control of funds through smart contracts rather than external services.
The team has also outlined plans for its next release, which introduces a smart contract system designed to function as the operational core for AI agents. Under that model, the contract would act as the executor, decision layer and long term storage for the agent’s state and strategy.
Such a design means that if an agent is replaced or stops operating, the data and assets tied to it remain secured within the contract. Developers could deploy a new agent to resume activity without losing previous configurations or funds. The architecture is expected to work with multiple AI agent frameworks, allowing developers to integrate their own models while using the same contract infrastructure.
Supporters see this as a step towards persistent autonomous systems that manage financial activity without central oversight. Others note that the broader AI DeFi sector is still in an experimental phase, where reliability and regulatory clarity remain open questions.
Menese Protocol has not yet released a detailed timeline for the next upgrade, though the project describes the upcoming smart contract executor as the foundation for a more resilient agent based system. As experimentation around AI powered finance continues, integrations such as this will test how far autonomous software can operate within decentralised markets.
