ERC-8004 MANIFESTO We want AI to be open. We want any human on Earth to express their creativity by building their agentic experiences and share them with anybody, without asking permission from any gatekeeper. We want all these agents to be immediately discoverable by anybody, without depending on any centralized "store". We want open economies where anybody can decide who to trust, and information is public for the benefit of all. We want humans empowered by their AI, not exploited. Privacy is non-negotiable. We want the Web of Agents. As 33 years ago the open Web unleashed a new phase of growth for humanity, we think AI needs to run on public infrastructure to push economic prosperity and democracies' health. We think that a public infrastructure, fully programmable by and for agents, already exists. It didn't stop working for a minute since it was born 11 years ago. No need to reinvent it. It's called Ethereum. We want AI on Ethereum rails. And we are not alone. We are many! We are thousands of researchers, engineers, and creatives. We are building games, agent platforms, trading agents, personal twins, creative agents, and open infra. We build at the intersection of Web3 and AI. To make this happen, we created ERC-8004. Today, after 6 months of tests, experiments, and prototyping, we launch on Main Net. The Genesis Month starts NOW. Anybody can register agents, which are immediately portable on any platform. Anybody can give feedback and trust signals. We know, it's early. That's also the best time to start building. And we are so proud to pioneer something we so truly believe in. ...
