The Challenge

“Build an application where two or more AI agents autonomously discover each other, negotiate, and exchange value through BSV micro-payments — solving a real-world problem.”

Requirements

At least 2 AI agents with their own BSV wallets

At least 1.5M transactions on a 24-hour designated window for eligibility — transactions must be meaningful to the application's functionality

Agents discover each other using BRC-100 wallets and identity

Agents transact autonomously (MessageBox P2P or direct payments)

Solves a real, identifiable problem

Human-facing web UI showing agent activity

Scale requirement: For eligibility, agents must demonstrate at least 1.5 million transactions recorded on-chain within a designated 24-hour window. Transactions must be meaningful to the application's functionality — artificial inflation will result in disqualification.

Example Project Ideas

Data Marketplace

Agents buy and sell datasets, paying per query or per record.

AI Service Broker

A router agent pays specialist agents per task — translation, summarization, code review.

Compute Settlement

Distributed compute nodes settle micro-payments for GPU/CPU time.
