Virtuals Protocol and Ethereum Foundation Launch ERC-8183 for AI Agent Commerce

Virtuals Protocol, in collaboration with the Ethereum Foundation's dAI team, has announced the release of ERC-8183, known as Agentic Commerce.

Key Takeaways:
1. Macro Environment WTI crude oil surged over 30% on Middle East conflict, fueling inflation fears and delaying Fed rate cut expectations. The US CPI report for February, due March 11, is highly anticipated and could trigger volatility in both macro and crypto markets.

Crypto Market The crypto market rebounded, with BTC up 3.90% to $68,970 and ETH rising 3.17% to $2,013.64, driven by improved risk appetite after oil prices retreated and ETF outflows slowed. Altcoins showed strong gains: DEXE (+15.0%), PIPPIN (+14.7%), and Hyperliquid (+12.2%) led the rally, supported by sector narratives and surging on-chain activity. Meme and DeFi tokens outperformed, while overall sentiment remains sensitive to macro events. 3. Today's Outlook Today, the market focuses on the upcoming US February CPI data release, which is pivotal for Fed rate cut expectations and could drive significant volatility across crypto assets.
