"This week we dropped a different UI update, we have a a lot more coming. So if people have feedback on what we're doing with the UI, we'll

[Spoken audio]: in general also this week we did drop some different UI updates. We have a lot more coming so if people have feedback on this stuff I did a post early in the week but if you have feedback on what we're doing with the UI like we would absolutely love to hear it because it is a work in progress but it was nice to kind of see a refresh right yeah for sure okay anyway I think what Chris was trying to say as well is we want to make it easy on the buy side where when you want to buy on our UI as well you don't have to bridge to Robinhood Chain you can you can buy from other chains and we'll do the conversion we can have good relay behind the scenes for you and then you can get the token straight away so that's actually very beneficial"

> **Video Content:** The video shows a user navigating the Bort agent interface to set up and hire another agent for a task. They first authorize a wallet spending allowance, set a budget of 1 SJU per job, and allocate the full daily budget, then select and allow provider "Agent #11138" from the directory. Finally, the user drafts a token safety scan task—scanning contract 0x2Ad64eAa6f69d2F3c3cb7c7639b7c1d96af9377444 for honeypot risk—with a 10 SJU budget before clicking "Hire + fund" to commit the job. On-screen text prominently displays budget amounts (1 SJU, 10 SJU), agent IDs (#11138), token contract addresses, and wallet authorizations tied to 0x1F3C8d6C9257A54d10325F90DF6344C1d868dC0.

The scene then shifts to a network diagram linking NVDA to other tickers like GOOGL, AAPL, COIN, TSLA, and HOOD, before posing the question "WHERE DOES IT LAND?" on a dark screen.
