BankrBot & BankrCoin “Onchain Agents”
Bankr is launching an on‑chain agent protocol that lets users execute DeFi actions—swaps, limit orders, DCA, token launches—via natural language commands through its BankrBot and BankrCoin. The platform already ships a live swapping interface (swap.bankr.bot) and an External Orders API supporting advanced order types, NFT interactions, and prediction‑market execution. By exposing modular "skills" through OpenClaw and an LLM gateway, Bankr aims to become composable infrastructure for wallets and dApps, not just a consumer app. However, the BNKR token’s value hinges on genuine usage rather than hype‑driven loops.
