The Protocol: Ethereum to roll out new AI agents standard soon
Yahoo Finance· 2026-01-28 16:03
Network News ETHEREUM’S NEW AI AGENT STANDARD: Ethereum developers are preparing to roll out ERC-8004, a new standard designed to help software agents find each other, prove who they are and decide who to trust when they operate across different systems. The proposal introduces a simple idea: If AI agents are going to transact, coordinate and execute tasks autonomously, they need persistent identities and a shared way to build credibility — much like users, wallets or smart contracts do today. It comes as l ...
