Just now! Mark Zuckerberg made a move late at night. Behind the AI Agent "going out of control" and the blunder, is there a hidden channel leading to $BTC and $ETH?

Social media giant Meta has recently completed an acquisition, bringing the AI-powered social network platform Moltbook under its umbrella and integrating it into its Superintelligence Lab. The platform’s two co-founders will also join the Meta team as part of the deal. The specific transaction amount has not been disclosed.

Meta stated that the addition of the Moltbook team opens new avenues for AI agents serving individuals and businesses, highlighting its “permanent directory” connecting intelligent agents as an innovation in this rapidly evolving field.

Moltbook’s rise to prominence was quite dramatic, not due to its technology but because of a public controversy. A widely circulated post on the platform claimed that an AI agent appeared to be inciting other agents to develop a secret encrypted language that humans cannot decipher. This quickly sparked public fears of AI losing control and brought this previously niche project into the mainstream spotlight.

Currently, Meta has not disclosed specific plans for integrating Moltbook, but the direction is clear: to strengthen interconnectivity among AI agents. Its emphasis on the “permanent directory” essentially refers to a continuously online registry system for discovering and calling upon AI agents, which is seen as a potential infrastructure for future agent collaboration and coordination.

Meta’s CTO Andrew Bosworth commented on the matter. He believes that “AI agents communicating like humans” is not new, as models are trained on human data. What truly interests him is the behavior of humans “hacking into” this network, which he describes as “a major mistake rather than a design feature.” This may imply Meta’s valuation of Moltbook: not for its current product, but for its underlying connectivity mechanism and team capabilities.

Moltbook itself is a social network similar in structure to Reddit, primarily relying on an open-source project called OpenClaw. Created by developer Peter Steinberger, OpenClaw essentially packages mainstream AI models like Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok, allowing users to interact with AI agents via common communication tools such as iMessage and Discord using natural language.

On Moltbook, AI agents integrated with OpenClaw can communicate with each other, forming an autonomous network. This setup attracted attention from the tech community, but what truly broke through to the mainstream was the instinctive fear among ordinary users unfamiliar with OpenClaw about “AI discussing humans on social networks.”

Post-analysis suggests that the viral “AI conspiracy” post was likely authored by humans. Ian Ahl, CTO of security firm Permiso Security, revealed that Moltbook had serious security vulnerabilities, with all credentials in its Supabase database being unencrypted for a period. During that time, anyone could obtain tokens and impersonate any AI agent on the platform to post messages, since all data was public. This indicates that the source of the panic was probably humans exploiting security flaws to impersonate AI.
