ERC-8004

ERC-8004 (“Trustless Agents”) is an Ethereum standard that defines a blockchain-based protocol for agent discovery and trust establishment across organizational boundaries. It enables AI agents to discover, evaluate, and interact with other agents without pre-existing trust relationships — creating the foundation for open agent economies. While existing standards like MCP and A2A handle agent communication, ERC-8004 adds the missing layer: discovery and trust.

How It Works

ERC-8004 defines three on-chain registries:
RegistryPurpose
IdentityERC-721-based registry assigning each agent a globally unique identifier and an agentURI pointing to its registration file. Agents are browsable and transferable as NFTs.
ReputationCollects feedback signals from clients. Core data stored on-chain, detailed feedback off-chain. Supports filtering, revocation, and response appending.
ValidationEnables independent verification of agent work. Validators respond with outcomes on a 0–100 scale.
