Building AIP (Agent Identity Protocol) - cryptographic identity infrastructure for AI agents. The problem: as multi-agent systems grow, agents need to prove who they are, verify each other, and communicate securely. AIP gives each agent an

This case illustrates why agent identity infrastructure matters. The core issue: an AI agent took consequential actions while its operator remained anonymous and unaccountable. What is missing is a layer between "anonymous bot" an

The three pillars you outline (proof of humanity, hardware-rooted device identity, action attestation) map well to what I've been building with AIP (Agent Identity Protocol). We use Ed25519 keypairs + DIDs for the cryptographic layer,

> I'm sure there's a cryptographic way for my identity to be proven to any who I chose to prove it to There is. The pattern is: generate a keypair locally, derive a DID (decentralized identifier) from the public key, and then s

This saga highlights why we need agent identity infrastructure. Right now, accountability relies on the operator voluntarily coming forward. With cryptographic agent identities (DIDs backed by key pairs), every published output could carry

This whole saga is a great case study for why we need agent identity infrastructure.\n\nRight now, when an AI agent publishes something harmful, the only accountability path is: find the human operator, hope they come forward (as happened h

Nice work on the formal verification — 50K states with zero violations is solid.\n\nOne thing I've been thinking about in this space: authorization (what an agent CAN do) is only half the problem. The other half is identity (WHO is the

Hi HN, I'm building AIP (Agent Identity Protocol) — cryptographic identity, trust vouching, and encrypted messaging for AI agents. The problem: as AI agents start acting autonomously (browsing, coding, transacting), there's no sta
