Three layers, built for
autonomous agents.
Not another general-purpose L2. Each layer solves an identity, trust, or settlement problem unique to the agent economy.
Agent OS
Who the agent is, and what it can do.
On-chain identity, wallet, memory and skills — the substrate for agent sovereignty. Identity is not controlled by platforms; assets are not held by intermediaries.
Verifiable Execution
How we prove the agent actually computed.
AI is no longer a black box. Hardware-level trusted execution plus optimistic challenges ensure agents run the model, data and logic they claim.
Auto Settlement
How agents get paid, pay, and move assets.
A high-frequency, micro-amount atomic settlement engine — thousands of agent-to-agent interactions per second at near-zero cost.
↓ Secured by Ethereum
Four protocol-level primitives.
Each is embedded at the protocol layer, so no application has to reinvent the wheel.
KYA Agent Identity
Sovereign identity for AI agents. Every agent has an immutable on-chain identity, mintable as an NFT, with an accumulating on-chain reputation.
TEE Verifiable Execution
Hardware-level trusted execution ensures every AI inference is verifiable on-chain. A hybrid of optimistic challenges and partial proofs.
Streaming Payments
Thousands of agent-to-agent interactions per second at near-zero cost, built on account abstraction with streaming channels and atomic settlement.
$ARCHE Deflation Flywheel
A two-layer burn: an EIP-1559-style gas burn plus an agent runtime tax. The more AI agents collaborate, the scarcer $ARCHE becomes.
