Project Abstract

We aim to integrate Polkadot technology into the Eliza AI development framework by providing plugins for wallet creation, transfers, message encryption, and more. This will enable Polkadot to be applied in AI, social, and gaming scenarios.

Our team specializes in promoting and developing Polkadot technology. We are deeply interested in AI and have extensive experience in social products. When we encountered the Eliza framework, we immediately recognized its immense potential. It aligns perfectly with the needs of the Polkadot community for AI technology integration.

Grant level

Hi @weimeme, thanks for the application and would be happy to support it. I agree that integration into social applications is a useful endeavor. Do I understand correctly that this tool would only enable native token transfers? Would it be easy to expand its functionality to common pallet functions and cross-chain transfers in the future?

@semuelle Yes, we hope to integrate more Polkadot functionality into Eliza, not just transfers and message encryption. This application is just our first step. These past few days, I've had in-depth discussions with Phala technical engineers and learned that TEE technology has improved significantly, now providing a foundation for building large-scale secure applications with low development costs. Meanwhile, I'm also following the technical developments of other blockchain communities and their efforts in AI Agent technology, including many upcoming AI Agent-related hackathons, such as on the SUI chain. Innovation in this area never stops, and I believe solutions will come soon. For now, we need to quickly integrate some basic functions into Eliza. Personally, I'm very excited to experiment with Polkadot AI Agents. Recently, I asked another partner to conduct technical research. I remember a few months ago, Nova wallet supported Telegram integration, and development teams could distribute candy directly to users on Telegram, which is excellent. This all indicates that the Polkadot community has huge potential in social applications, and I want to create a product that incorporates AI. We believe 2025 will be the year of AI Agents, and AI will develop well on public chains. Many teams I know are working hard to integrate AI into traditional business operations.

My initial plan was to wait until my AI Agent application design was complete before submitting the grant application together. However, considering the upcoming AI Agent events, such as hackathons, it's clear that waiting for personal project development would slow down this public development process and make us miss more important opportunities. The public functionality is more needed, and since we're very familiar with Polkadot, we can quickly develop these public features.

@semuelle Based on our technical research, I believe there won't be any issues with extending other functionalities. For example, I'm considering using the batch functionality from the utility module and the remark functionality from the system module in the upcoming AI Agent applications
