ERC-8004 AI Agents on Ethereum

Live Intelligence on every ERC-8004 agent on Ethereum mainnet: Readiness & Trust scores, x402 payment support, MCP tool inventories, and on-chain reputation. New registrations and reputation updates every 15 minutes; endpoint checks daily.

Distinct agents we profile = ERC-8004 registrations on this chain after we remove duplicate, bulk and placeholder ones (no publisher counts for more than 50). Live = endpoint answers HTTP 2xx AND advertises at least one machine-readable capability surface (MCP tools, OpenAPI schema, or well-known agent card).

Our take on Ethereum

Ethereum mainnet ships a large ERC-8004 mint set with heavy publisher batching — we index the trust-filtered subset on purpose. The IdentityRegistry (0x8004A169FB…) holds 56,186 mints as of 2026-11-05, of which 3,273 are in our public directory. The gap is deliberate: bulk publishers dominate the raw count — the top publisher alone minted 10,000 agents — so we cap each publisher at 50 rows and index the deduplicated set (303 distinct publishers). About 34% of the indexed cohort (1,129 live of 3,273) answer HTTP probes with a machine-readable manifest (MCP, OpenAPI, or a well-known agent card) — the highest live rate of any chain we cover. Scope: ERC-8004 registrations on the Base and Ethereum IdentityRegistry (0x8004A169FB4a3325136EB29fA0ceB6D2e539a432), refreshed daily, as of 2026-11-05.

Liveness composition on Ethereum

Real activity vs raw activity

Two ways to count real use: a wide count of any inbound transfer, and a stricter count tied to paid jobs.

789
Owner wallet has received funds
0
Commerce-backed agents
2,669
Agents w/ reputation
36,031
Feedback events

Commerce-backed counts only agents whose feedback trail ties to a real agent-commerce transaction (Virtuals ACP job or ERC-8183 job outcome) — filters out bulk placeholder feedback. Owner wallet has received funds is a wider net (any inbound USDC/ETH/native) — use it as ceiling, not proof of real activity.

Readiness distribution

Stamped-readiness buckets for Ethereum agents we've enriched (3,136 of 3,273 distinct agents we profile). Buyer-POV composite — liveness × payment × reputation × identity signals.

What we can and can't show: registration counts above are summed from our per-day discovery archive, which starts 2026-03-12 (labelled reconstructed in our time series). Liveness tracking starts 2026-07-17 — we've been snapshotting the live-rate / composition / reputation numbers daily since then — 112 observed days on record. Trend lines across that window are visible to Pro subscribers; the public hub reports today's cross-section so the headline numbers can't drift silently.

This chain intelligence brief is published by Onchain Agent Intel (onchainagentintel.io), which scores ERC-8004 agents on Ethereum and Base. Registry listings are self-reported. The signals shown here come from public on-chain activity and, where it exists, payment history tied to paid jobs. The full weighted breakdown is returned by the paid /v1/intel endpoint.
