From Automation to Autonomy: How NODO Is Redefining DeFi

Dear Partners,
This week, AI agents move from assistants to operators. Siemens launched autonomous agents that run full industrial workflows. Microsoft joined Google’s Agent2Agent to make AI interoperable across apps and ecosystems.
At NODO, we’re already there. Our AI vaults on Sui autonomously optimize yield, manage risk, and adapt in real time—no manual input needed.
AI agents aren’t just a trend—they’re the new backbone of DeFi..
Let’s dive in.
Market Summary
Siemens Introduces AI Agents for Industrial Automation
Here’s what you need to know about Siemens' AI agents:
Siemens unveiled Industrial AI Agents that go beyond chat-based assistants—these autonomous agents can execute full industrial workflows without human input. Integrated into its Industrial Copilot system, these agents collaborate, learn, and interoperate across Siemens’ and third-party tools to boost productivity by up to 50%.NODO’s Commentary:
Siemens is showing how AI agents can evolve from passive tools to active collaborators in high-stakes environments. For DeFi and Web3, this is a blueprint: autonomous agents that can execute, optimize, and adapt across ecosystems—paving the way for scalable, trustless, AI-driven protocol operations.
Microsoft commits to Google’s interoperability protocol for AI agents
Here’s what you need to know about Microsoft backing Agent2Agent:
Microsoft has joined Google’s Agent2Agent interoperability standard, alongside over 50 tech giants like Salesforce and Oracle. This move aims to enable AI agents to work across apps, clouds, and ecosystems. The initiative pushes toward open standards for scalable, cross-agent collaboration.NODO’s Commentary:
Interoperability is the gateway to the next phase of AI and Web3. As agents move from isolated tools to composable systems, standards like A2A could unlock fluid agent-to-agent coordination across decentralized infrastructure. The future? AI agents autonomously navigating blockchains, DAOs, and dApps.
Product & Ecosystem Updates
These numbers tell our story
We are building something special, and now the data confirms it:
• $4.78M in trading volume – trust in action
• $42K daily platform flow – consistent momentum
• 11,419 new users have joined us – a growing community
• 8.4M+ page views – people are paying attention
What sets us apart? While others talk about innovation, we're delivering it. Our AI-powered vaults on Sui are tracking market shifts, rebalancing portfolios, and optimizing yield in ways that weren't possible before. We’re building smart risk management into every layer because that's what matters most.

What is Arbitrage in DeFi—and Why Does It Matter?
In DeFi, price isn’t universal. The same token can trade at slightly different prices across DEXs and chains—creating opportunities.
That’s where arbitrage comes in.
Arbitrage is the strategy of buying an asset where it’s cheap and selling it where it’s more expensive. The price gap might last seconds, but if captured quickly, it creates risk-free (or low-risk) profit.
But this isn’t as easy as it sounds:
⚠️ The opportunity window is tiny
⚠️ Competition is fierce (including bots)
⚠️ Slippage, fees, and latency can wipe out profits
⚠️ On-chain actions are visible before confirmation—inviting frontrunners
To win, you need: — Fast data feeds
— Real-time execution
— Optimal routing
— A system that reacts before the window closes
At NODO, we’re solving this with AI agents on Sui that detect, analyze, and execute arbitrage opportunities autonomously across DEXs and chains.
Smart, fast, adaptive. That’s how arbitrage works in the age of AI.
NODO Event Recap:
Tether: Stablecoins and Beyond
On Saturday, May 10th, we had the pleasure of hosting 80+ attendees at Mount Kenya University for a powerful blockchain activation event in partnership with Tether.io Africa, Kotani Pay and the MKU Medical Students Association.
Massive shoutout to the amazing speakers and contributors who made this possible:
GRANTON NYANGE – Delivered an engaging presentation on Tether.io and its real-world relevance.
Benjamin Arunda – Led a practical masterclass on the fundamentals of blockchain.
Panelists – Abigail Munene (Kotani Pay), Faith Nyambura (Go Chapaa), Dion Nekesa & Benjamin (African Blockchain Council) all shared key insights during an exciting Q&A session.
Thank you to everyone who showed up, asked questions, and participated. The energy was electric!
