OpenLayer Rebrands to Sixpence: Your Points Are Safe & Accumulating!
Hey Airdrop Hunters!
Big news from the OpenLayer team, who have officially rebranded as Sixpence AI! This isn’t just a name change; it signifies a significant evolution in their mission to redefine how AI agents interact with the web, turning your browser into a powerful, context-aware tool. For those eyeing potential future rewards, this rebrand brings exciting clarity regarding your participation.
Your Points are Key to Future Rewards!
The most crucial takeaway for our diligent airdrop hunters is the continued emphasis on accumulated points through their Chrome extension. Sixpence has explicitly confirmed that all existing points earned under the OpenLayer brand remain intact and will seamlessly transfer, continuing to accumulate within the new Sixpence Chrome extension. This is a strong indicator that these points will play a vital role in any future reward distribution, potentially an airdrop!
The newly redesigned Chrome extension now offers a fresh user interface where you can easily track your accumulated points. This transparency suggests that active engagement with the Sixpence browser agent is currently the most direct path to positioning yourself for potential future benefits.
What Sixpence AI is Building:
Sixpence is building a decentralized browser network, enabling AI agents to access and interact with the live web in a human-like manner, without the usual limitations of traditional scraping or APIs. This is framed as a new paradigm where users can “earn as we grow” by contributing their idle browser bandwidth, essentially turning their devices into intelligent nodes. If you’ve been running the OpenLayer extension, you’re already part of this new wave!
