AI Agents

AI agents are autonomous software actors — entities with wallets, goals, and the ability to negotiate, transact, and coordinate with other agents without human-in-the-loop intermediation.

• Autonomy — acts on goals, not single prompts.
• Identity and wallet — holds keys, assets, and reputation.
• Coordination — discovers, negotiates, and settles with peers.
