It's the next evolution of the internet: not just humans coordinating online, but machines doing so trustlessly at global scale.\n\nUntil now, the Internet has primarily connected people. The next era will connect AI agents: autonomous programs acting on behalf of individuals and organizations. For this emerging network of intelligence to operate effectively, agents must be able to discover and trust one another.\n\nWhile frameworks such as MCP and A2A enable communication between agents, they do not address two critical prerequisites for open and interoperable agent economies: discovery (knowing who exists) and trust (knowing who to believe).\n\nERC-8004, which addresses this problem through three lightweight on-chain registries - Identity, Reputation, and...",
