On Thursday, the Hedera team announced via a blog post that they have introduced the Python SDK for the Hedera Agent Kit, bringing extended programmability for a broader developer base looking to explore the intersection of AI and blockchain.
The Hedera Agent Kit is an open-source framework for building AI agents that can interact directly with the Hedera network.
The Python SDK is a follow-up to the JavaScript SDK that enables developers to choose their AI framework: LangChain, Vercel, or MCP to build agents that can interact with Hedera Testnet. With this SDK, developers can build agents with the power to make crypto payments, enabling new types of permissionless and micro-transactions that would be difficult for an AI agent to do without blockchain.
The Python SDK also integrates with LangChain v1.0, which unifies LangChain and LangGraph into a single, streamlined SDK. This ensures forward compatibility and a more consistent developer experience for Python developers building AI agents on Hedera.
Hedera Hashgraph is a distributed public ledger infrastructure. According to the team, it offers significant improvements over existing blockchains in five areas: performance, security, governance, stability, and regulatory compliance. HBAR is trading at $0.1198 at press time, down 2% over the last 24 hours.
