Agents

Settlement an agent can verify.

An agent is software that acts and pays for someone. On one chain, it can already pay. Across chains, it acts on what a feed reports, and someone in the middle holds or vouches for the value on the way: trust it has no way to check.

What it’s for

Treasury.

An agent can rebalance holdings across chains, within the limits its wallet sets.

Buying by the unit.

An agent can pay for compute, data or power per unit, funded from the coin it holds.

Paying out.

An agent can pay someone in the coin they hold, on the chain they use.

What it makes possible

Context from one place.

An agent can read the book for every coin, and the proofs from every connected chain, on one network.connected - Joined to Amaroo by imaging. A connected chain is a foreign chain that Amaroo’s chains image, and a connected coin is that chain’s coin. Amaroo’s own chains are simplex chains, and dapp-chains are anchored, not connected.

DEX infrastructure

Access built for software.

Agents can connect through and an API, and act from wallets whose spend limits, timelocks and rate limits the network can enforce, not the agent’s own code.MCP - Model Context Protocol, an open standard for connecting AI agents to tools

Build for agents

State it can check itself.

An agent can check what it acts on against each chain’s own block headers, as Amaroo records them. No oracle in between.

Proofs of payment

A record of who it acts for.

An agent can prove who it acts for and what it may do, with that credential kept on a anchored to the network, and every leg it trades leaves a record.dapp-chain - An application chain with its own rules, which can be anchored to Amaroo’s network. A dapp-chain runs the consensus its builders choose, and is as secure as that consensus; its headers can be imaged onto the simplex. The first dapp-chains’ consensus: Dapp-chains.

How an agent can pay its own way

Step 1 of 5: It starts with bitcoin.

Fig. 1: how an agent can pay its own way Two lanes: Bitcoin and Amaroo. An agent that holds bitcoin can take a maker’s offer of ROO on the OTC path, designed so a first trade needs no ROO: it pays BTC on Bitcoin, and the proof of that payment releases the ROO to it. It can then pay a provider in ROO for each unit it uses, and move to a cheaper provider when prices move. The bitcoin payment is proven from Bitcoin’s blocks, and the ROO payments sit in Amaroo’s own. The drawing shows the step named in the status line; the numbered steps describe all five.

Dashed, then a square: a header recorded on Amaroo. Padlock: held in escrow. Open: released.

  1. Step 1: It starts with bitcoin.

    The agent holds BTC on Bitcoin, in its own keys, and no .ROO - The network’s token. It pays fees, and every order book is priced against it.

  2. Step 2: It funds itself on the OTC path.

    A maker offers ROO for bitcoin. The agent pays BTC on Bitcoin, and the proof of that payment releases the ROO to it. The is designed so a first trade needs no ROO.OTC path - A trade taken directly from a maker instead of off a book: the maker escrows ROO, the taker pays on another chain, and a proof of that payment releases the ROO. It needs no collateral, and is designed so that a first trade needs no ROO.

  3. Step 3: It pays by the unit.

    It pays a provider in ROO for each unit it uses, such as compute by the second or power by the kilowatt-hour.

  4. Step 4: It switches when prices move.

    When a provider reprices, the agent moves to a cheaper one, within the limits its wallet allows.

  5. Step 5: It checks every input.

    The bitcoin payment is proven from Bitcoin’s blocks, and the ROO payments sit in Amaroo’s own. The agent can check both itself.

A first ROO: the OTC path.
