Aethir launched a Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) layer within its Claw platform that integrates LLM inference credits directly into the monthly subscription, eliminating the need to contract separate external APIs from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google. The MaaS layer already includes native support for frontier models from those three companies at competitive prices, and all inference runs exclusively on the protocol's GPU infrastructure.
Aethir Claw introduced CARA, a pre-built crypto AI agent persona running on decentralized GPU infrastructure and deployable in about five minutes. CARA combines portfolio monitoring, market analysis, whale-wallet tracking, social monitoring, project research, contract audits and real-time feeds from more than 1,500 information sources.
Aethir said that it launched Aethir Claw V1, a browser-based platform designed to let users deploy a crypto-native AI agent in under five minutes. The company said the release marks a shift from its earlier Alpha phase toward a more streamlined product for non-technical users.
Aethir says OpenClaw's rapid rise has exposed a major usability gap, with many users wanting AI agents but facing setup processes that can take 45 minutes to two hours. Its Claw product aims to cut deployment to about a minute through a browser-based workflow on isolated VPS infrastructure.
Aethir contained a bridge exploit on Friday, capped losses under $90,000, and pledged full repayment to users after early estimates neared $400,000.
Aethir said it contained an ATH bridge hack, kept Ethereum supply intact, and limited user losses to under $90,000.
Aethir said that it remains fully operational following the exploit.
Aethir demonstrated rapid incident response after detecting a vulnerability in its bridge infrastructure connecting multiple blockchain networks. Through immediate coordination with exchange partners and security specialists, the decentralized computing platform successfully capped financial losses at approximately $90,000.
Aethir said it halted a bridge exploit on its Ethereum-linked contracts, limiting losses to under $90,000 after PeckShield estimated $400,000 in damages.
