- Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has unveiled an update for the Logan AI agent, adding token analytics and a blockchain explorer.
- Other upgrades include CSWAP, which allows users to fetch pools from swap aggregators, and $ADA Anvil, which enables users to mint and burn tokens.
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has announced upgrades to Logan – the Exit Liquidity Lobster, an AI agent that he deployed at the start of the month.
Logan is an AI agent running on decentralized social platform, including Moltbook, whose popularity has shot up in recent weeks.
Hoskinson has been teasing the upgrades for a few days and in the early hours of Thursday, he revealed on X that the AI agent now has 8 new Cardano integrations, ranging from a new blockchain data explorer to a new $ADA minting tool.

The first update was on Feb. 2, where he claimed to have improved Logan’s operation and environmental security, including adding an HSM key management system and a docker system with two containers. An HSM key is a cryptographic key generated, stored and used inside a physical device known as a hardware security module.
On Wednesday, Hoskinson then revealed that a new update was on the way under a release dubbed “From Shell With Love.”
Hoskinson Updates Logan With CSWAP, $ADA Anvil, TapTools
The 8 new tools include TapTools, an analytics API for Cardano tokens that in itself has 5 separate tools. It will enable Logan to check and display token prices, market cap and trading volume, as well as other token metrics such as holder count, $NFT floor price and supply and DEX trading volume.
Cexplorer will allow the agent to access on-chain data, including balance, transaction count, fees, metadata, margins and delegators for liquidity pools and epoch numbers and block counts.
CSWAP is a DEX aggregator for token swaps and will list liquidity pools, fetch token price from pools, estimate the output amount and price impact and the total value locked and pool depth.
$ADA Anvil mints and burns native tokens, creates an $NFT collections and displays the minting history. Metera indexes tokens and tracks baskets of Cardano assets, including fetching the net asset value and returns to investors over time.
The other two tools, GovCircle and NABU VPN, enable governance proposals and offer a decentralized VPN node network, respectively.
Hoskinson pledged to keep making updates to Logan and called on the Cardano community to propose any changes they would want to see implemented.
The updates align with Hoskinson’s pledge to ‘go all in’ on rebuilding the Cardano ecosystem. As we reported, he said he would sell most of his assets, including his helicopter and private jet, and invest the funds in Cardano, although some, like Digital Asset founder Yuval Rooz, say it’s all a hoax and that Hoskinson “won’t do any of the things he says he will.”
$ADA trades at $0.2808, losing 6% in the past day despite a slight uptick in trading volume. It trades 90.9% below its all-time high, achieved in late 2021.
