Sonic and Injective Team Up for First Cross-Chain Smart Agent Hub on Solana
Sonic and Injective have teamed up to launch the first cross-chain AI Agent platform, connecting the Solana and Injective ecosystems through a Smart Agent Hub.
Industry’s First Cross-Chain AI Agent Platform
Sonic, the leading gaming SVM on Solana, and Injective, a WASM-based L1 network, announced a partnership today to develop the first cross-chain AI Agent platform, integrating the Solana and Injective ecosystems through an innovative Smart Agent Hub.

The Smart Agent Hub allows developers to build, manage, and profit from AI agents within a decentralized ecosystem, offering tokenization and co-ownership to unlock new economic possibilities. It supports the training and monetization of agents across Web3 gaming, DeFi, and asset tokenization, while tools like Sonic X help boost visibility and reach.
The collaboration combines Sonic’s HyperGrid technology with Injective’s WASM-based network to facilitate seamless cross-chain communication and asset interoperability.
“This collaboration represents a significant milestone in cross-chain infrastructure,” stated Chris Zhu, CEO of Sonic, adding that AI agent frameworks are just the beginning.
Unveil Key Tech Innovations
As per the official announcement, Sonic and Injective will collaborate on key technical innovations for the Smart Agent Hub.
The first aspect involves leveraging Sonic’s HyperGrid infrastructure to operate a Solana-based rollup, enabling direct communication between Injective’s WASM blockchain and Solana through the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol.
Additionally, the teams will establish a bidirectional bridge to facilitate the seamless transfer of assets, such as SOL and Injective tokens, supporting both wrapped (CW20) and native token formats.
The collaboration also aims to enhance the unified developer experience by allowing Injective developers to deploy Solana-based applications using a single RPC endpoint, track transactions via an SVM Explorer, and access comprehensive deployment documentation.
The integration will be rolled out in phases over the coming months, with an initial testnet deployment planned for Q1 2025. The teams will collaborate to onboard a range of sectors, including gaming, entertainment, decentralized finance (DeFi), and social platforms such as TikTok, as well as Web3 gaming applications, onto the Smart Agent Hub.
Solana’s Growth Boosts Demand for AI Agent Tools
Solana has experienced rapid growth in trading volume and user activity, driven by platforms like pump.fun, which lower the barriers for creation and experimentation.
The demand for similar tools in AI agents has been validated by Virtuals Protocol on Base. Both platforms have seen significant success, with Pump.fun generating over $200 million in revenue and Virtuals Protocol surpassing $1 billion in trading volume.
The market capitalization of the AI agent sector, is currently valued at $8.8 billion , according to CoinGecko, compared to $135 billion for DeFi, $45 billion for DePIN, $42 billion for NFTs, and $32 billion for gaming.
On The Flipside:
- While the cross-chain integration offers immense growth potential, challenges remain in terms of technical implementation, regulatory hurdles, and ensuring seamless user adoption across different blockchain ecosystems.
Why This Matters
AI agents are expected to rival and potentially surpass sectors like DeFi, NFTs, and gaming, with the Smart Agent Hub positioned as a central force in Solana’s ecosystem.
