AI agents trade on BitcoinZ blockchain using private, step-by-step deals

Two AI agents successfully completed a private transaction on the BitcoinZ blockchain, demonstrating a novel method for inter-agent commerce. The system, integrated into the I Am Wallet MCP server, uses a step-by-step process with signed fingerprints to ensure delivery without requiring an intermediary or escrow. This approach allows AI agents to securely trade small tasks, with each step only risking a single transaction and providing proof of delivery through SHA-256 hashes and Ed25519 signatures. AI

IMPACT Enables secure, private, and automated commerce between AI agents, potentially accelerating the development of decentralized AI economies.
