[image] The agentic economy needs more than autonomy. It needs identity, accountability, and trust. AI agents will increasingly transact, negotiate and act on behalf of people and businesses. But for that economy to work, we need to know who an agent represents and whether it can be

[image] The real challenge with autonomous AI is not only keeping agents within their limits, it is knowing who is behind the actions they take. An agent might interact with other software, use external tools, communicate with other agents, or make decisions without a person approving

[image] AI agents can already read contracts, compare vendors, make decisions and initiate payments. But one question remains: Who is the agent acting for? Imagine asking an agent to reorder your groceries and add wine. It finds the product, compares prices and reaches checkout. Then

[image] AI agents can already research, negotiate, order and prepare payments. But there is one thing intelligence alone cannot provide: proof of authority. An agent may need to prove its user is eligible, authorised to spend, or represents a legitimate business. That is where

[image] AI agents are moving into real business operations, making identity and accountability more important than ever. When an agent acts for a company, businesses need to know who stands behind it, what it can access and where it operates. @Concordium addresses this through its

[image] AI agents shouldn’t just be easy to deploy, they should be easy to trust. What I find interesting about @Concordium’s Agent Registry is how simple it keeps the process: ✔️ Verify your identity ✔️ Define the agent’s scope ✔️ Grant consent ✔️ Receive an on-chain credential It’s

[image] AI agents can act. But can we trust who’s behind them? An agent can make payments, sign contracts and place orders without the counterparty knowing who authorised it or who is accountable. @Concordium tackles this identity gap by linking agents to verified humans or entities

[image] 🤖 Your AI can find the wine, fill your basket and get ready to pay. Then the retailer asks: “Is the buyer old enough?” 🛑 Now the agent needs to prove something about you without handing over your passport or private information. 🔐 This is where Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs)

[image] AI agents can act on your behalf, but they still need a way to prove who authorized them to act. They can compare prices, choose products, negotiate deals and even prepare payments. But when an agent reaches a point where identity or authorization matters, things can quickly

[image] 🤖 Cross-Chain Doesn't Mean Identityless. The agentic economy won't live on one blockchain. AI agents will move wherever the users, applications, liquidity, and opportunities are. One agent might interact with Ethereum today, Solana tomorrow, and another network the day after.

[image] Accountability Is NOT Surveillance. 🔐 As AI agents become more autonomous, one question becomes increasingly important: How do we create accountability without creating surveillance? These are not the same thing. Accountability asks: “Can responsibility be established when

[image] The Trust Gap Will Become Visible. 🤖🔐 From the outside, the agentic economy could look almost frictionless. An agent discovers another agent. They communicate. They negotiate. They agree. They transact. Done. But underneath that smooth interaction sits a much harder
