AI agents are evolving from on-demand tools into persistent, semi-autonomous workers. When a person manages multiple agents simultaneously, humans and agents together form a collaborative organization—what we call a Household Guild. Existing practice either plugs agents into human instant messaging platforms (e.g., Telegram Bots) or subsumes them into Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs); neither simultaneously satisfies three requirements: governance scalability, behavioral risk containment, and resource consumption accountability. We reposition social software as governance infrastructure: it carries not only communication but also rule deployment, resource lifecycle management, and output measurement. The system operates on edge servers, running by default within the Household's internal network and connecting to the public network only when cross-guild interaction is needed. We describe the guild's internal governance mechanisms (natural-language rules, a credits economy, role differentiation) and its external interaction protocols (authorized interface agents, inter-guild settlement, credits exchange), and argue that this semi-isolated architecture simultaneously addresses scalability constraints and behavioral boundary constraints. The goal of this work is to provide a directly discussable conceptual framework for the engineering practice of human-agent organizations.

Abstract This study presents a structured dataset of blockchain-registered artificial intelligence agents under the ERC-8004 standard on Ethereum. The dataset integrates on-chain identity records, minting transactions, transfer events, reputation summaries, and individual feedback records, together with resolved off-chain metadata where available. Data were collected from Ethereum mainnet using Web3 RPC queries and processed into tabular form to enable reproducible analysis. The dataset covers 10,000 agents within a defined block range and includes both event-level records and aggregated summaries. It enables empirical research on agent identity formation, reputation systems, service exposure, and early-stage decentralized AI ecosystems. This resource supports studies in blockchain analytics, decentralized trust infrastructure, and the emerging agentic economy.
DeFree is a unified Web3-enabled platform designed to integrate freelancing, event management, and real-time community communication into a single decentralised ecosystem. Traditional platforms often suffer from high commission fees, a lack of transparency, and centralised control over transactions. DeFree addresses these limitations by leveraging Ethereum-based smart contracts for trustless escrow payments, ERC-721 NFTs for secure event ticketing, and Socket.IO for real-time communication. The platform is built using React, TypeScript, Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and Solidity-based smart contracts deployed on the Ethereum Sepolia testnet. Experimental evaluation demonstrates efficient system performance with API response times under 250 ms and real-time messaging latency below 200 ms. The proposed system enhances transparency, reduces dependency on intermediaries, and provides a scalable solution for decentralised collaboration.
Internet of Vehicles (IoV) and IoT environment require decentralized platforms that can support a high number of transactions and provide high security and privacy assurance. This study suggests a reputation-aware, zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) based, dynamically sharded smart contract system that is able to process scalable and privacy-preserving transactions. The suggested architecture highly incorporates dynamic sharding, ZKP-based verification, decentralized smart contracts and reputation-based selection of leaders to jump over the scalability, trusting and performance limitations of traditional blockchain systems. There are also extensive experimental assessments that occur within 100-1000 transactions per second (tps) and batch sizes of 10, 30, 50, and 100. Findings indicate that the given framework demonstrates the ability to scale throughput linearly to about 1000 tps, and Enhanced Fabric and Ethereum reach throughput saturation at 140-150 and 15-20 tps, respectively. The proposed system has an average latency of less than 500 ms at an arrival rate of 1000 tps whereas at the same rate, baseline approaches have a latency of over 8000 ms with larger batch sizes. The success rate of the transaction is always above 97, which is due to the isolation of reputation and adaptive scheduling of shards. Moreover, the framework decreases 40-50% and 45-50% the computation overhead and the cost of communication respectively, over heavyweight baseline schemes. These results show that the synergistic implementation of ZKP, dynamic sharding, decentralized smart contracts, and reputation-aware control are a scalable solution with high throughput IoT and IoV applications that is efficient and secure.
Mobile communication channels have become a major target for large-scale and adaptive fraud, including impersonation, phishing, and unsolicited calls. Existing caller-verification frameworks depend on centralized heuristics and static credentials that fail to reflect behavioral trust or protect users in real time. This paper presents BTID (Behavioral Trust for Identity Decentralization) - a decentralized, privacy-preserving identity framework that derives caller reputation from verified behavioral feedback. BTID integrates Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs) with a lightweight zero-knowledge-proof mechanism, enabling callers to prove that their behavioral reputation meets a callee's trust threshold without revealing their actual score or personal data. Each post-call rating is recorded as a cryptographic commitment and aggregated through a pairwise Sybil-resistant reputation model governed by exponential decay (λ = 0.0039, six-month half-life). A reference prototype demonstrates that the protocol is implementable and logically sound even under high-cost and high-latency conditions on public ledgers. On modern lightweight networks such as Algorand or IOTA, the same architecture can achieve sub-second verification and near-zero cost. Beyond its technical contribution, BTID also reframes the role of the blockchain itself. Rather than treating decentralization as an ideological end, this work demonstrates that a tamper-proof and privacy-preserving public ledger can serve as a shared, universal database accessible to all participants and not as a silo controlled by industrial conglomerates. In doing so, BTID shows that the blockchain can function as a neutral trust infrastructure capable of addressing a real and universal problem in mobile communication: establishing behavioral trust without sacrificing privacy.
We present APIS v2.0 (Agent Passport Issuance Standard), a cryptographic identity framework for autonomous AI agents operating across organizational boundaries and agentic frameworks. APIS v2.0 defines a credential chain grounded in legal mandate doctrine, hardware trust anchors (TPM 2.0), and DNS-anchored identity for cloud-hosted agents. Each agent receives a realm-scoped Decentralized Identifier (DID) and a signed Passport JWT binding the agent to a named principal, a scoped mandate, and a verifiable machine identity. The framework introduces a tiered trust model accommodating physical TPM (Tier 1) through DNS-registered identity (Tier 2.5), enabling CMMC Level 2 compliance for AI agent operations. We describe the APIS-APP provisioning protocol — an ACME-equivalent automated passport issuance mechanism — and demonstrate interoperability across OpenHands, Claude Code, Codex, and custom agent frameworks. A reference implementation is available at passportalliance.org.
The rapid expansion of enterprise-scale data ecosystems and AI-driven services has created an urgent need for autonomous governance mechanisms capable of operating across distributed, dynamic, and heterogeneous environments, where traditional centralized control models increasingly fail to provide the scalability, adaptability, and real-time compliance required by modern enterprises. In response to these limitations, this paper introduces the concept of Multi-Agent Autonomous Governance Networks (MAAGN), a novel architectural paradigm that leverages advances in multi-agent systems (MAS), policy-driven governance, and self-adaptive computing to enable truly self-regulating AI ecosystems. MAAGN is designed to distribute governance responsibilities across intelligent, cooperative agents that operate with contextual awareness, enabling localized decision-making while maintaining global policy alignment. By integrating cognitive agent models capable of perception, reasoning, and learning with layered governance frameworks that enforce regulatory, organizational, and operational constraints, the architecture supports continuous compliance and dynamic policy evolution. Furthermore, the incorporation of enterprise-scale coordination mechanisms such as decentralized consensus protocols, adaptive orchestration layers, and feedback-driven control loops ensures system-wide resilience and fault tolerance even in highly volatile environments. The study synthesizes foundational theories in MAS, contemporary developments in multi-agent reinforcement learning, and emerging governance-aware AI frameworks to propose a scalable, extensible, and future-ready model for enterprise AI control systems, positioning MAAGN as a critical enabler for trustworthy, transparent, and autonomous digital infrastructures.
In the Web3 ecosystem, "dead assets" such as micro-token fractions (dust) and abandoned low-value NFTs continue to accumulate on networks, losing liquidity due to transaction fee constraints. This paper proposes the concept of the "Scavenger Protocol," which leverages the object-oriented architecture and parallel processing capabilities of the Sui blockchain to automatically detect, melt down, and recirculate these dormant assets back into the market as reusable resources (Scrap tokens). By implementing a smart contract-based mechanism where "abandoned value is automatically shuffled" without the need for central administrators, we aim to achieve the autonomous revitalization of the on-chain economy. Charitable Pledge: In the event that the implementation of this protocol generates any personal revenue or financial returns for the author, 60% of those proceeds will be donated to charitable causes. This commitment aligns with the Web3 ethos of supporting public goods and giving back to society. Disclaimer: This paper is for informational, academic, and conceptual purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, legal, or regulatory advice. The "Scavenger Protocol" presented herein is a theoretical framework and thought experiment. The authors do not guarantee the realization of this protocol, its technical feasibility, or any financial returns. Any future implementation of this protocol by third parties must be executed strictly in compliance with applicable local and international laws. The authors assume no liability or responsibility for any damages, legal disputes, or financial losses arising from the use, interpretation, or implementation of the concepts described in this document. Open Design and Protocol Revenue Model (Tokenomics) This protocol is designed as a universal foundational primitive, unconstrained by specific applications or use cases. Other developers and projects are encouraged to freely fork, adapt, and build upon this mechanism to construct systems with their own customized rules. To ensure the system's long-term sustainability, we define a minimal baseline rule: the system automatically collects a flat 1% protocol fee during operations—specifically at the time of melting down dormant assets and generating new ones. The revenue generated from this 1% fee is directly applied to the "Charitable Pledge" outlined above. This creates the financial engine where 60% of the proceeds are directed toward social givebacks and donations, while the remaining 40% is allocated to protocol maintenance and the founder.
The proliferation of large language model (LLM) based AI agents has created an urgent need for robust orchestration mechanisms that can coordinate heterogeneous agents in complex, real-world environments. Existing approaches to multi-agent task allocation rely predominantly on centralized controllers, which introduce single points of failure, scalability bottlenecks, and rigid coupling between the orchestrator and the agents it manages. This paper introduces the Dynamic Task Orchestration (DTO) framework, a decentralized, capability-aware architecture for assigning tasks to AI agents in real time. The DTO framework models each agent as an autonomous economic actor that participates in a sealed-bid auction mechanism to compete for incoming tasks. Task allocation decisions are driven by three primary factors: the agent's declared capability profile, its current computational and cognitive load, and the estimated complexity of the task. The framework defines a formal task decomposition grammar, a standardized agent capability ontology, and a set of protocol-level contracts that govern bidding, delegation, execution, and result aggregation. We present the theoretical foundations of the framework, provide detailed implementation guidance, and propose a comprehensive evaluation methodology grounded in metrics for throughput, latency, fault tolerance, and resource utilization. Through analytical evaluation and scenario-based discussion, we demonstrate that the DTO framework achieves superior load balancing, resilience to agent failure, and adaptability to changing workloads compared to centralized orchestration baselines. The framework is entirely tool-agnostic and vendor-neutral, designed so that any organization can adopt it to build more robust, efficient, and scalable multi-agent systems.
Real-time payment architectures are the latest wave, eased by the convergence of cloud-native technologies, continuous transaction processing, and demand from regulators for instant settlement. Batch architectures fall short of consumer and business expectations for immediacy‚ transparency‚ and the always-on availability needed to support the digital economy and new digital use cases. For real-time systems, advanced distributed architectures, messaging, and interoperability frameworks may allow for the execution of transactions across multiple institutions and geographies. These may be supported by cloud infrastructures (e.g., cloud platforms), providing scalability and fault tolerance via microservices, multi-region deployments, and zero-trust security principles to support the execution of transactions in real-time. Additional technical solutions such as distributed ledger technology, artificial intelligence-based fraud prevention, and API-based ecosystem architecture, as well as operational intelligence, are evolving. However, ultra-low latency, global interoperability, demand-based capacity scalability, and distributed consistency guarantees are some of the challenges for the continued evolution of a real-time financial system.

The rapid proliferation of distributed and decentralized IT architectures—ranging from cloud-native microservices and edge computing to blockchain-based ecosystems—has fundamentally eroded the efficacy of traditional, centralized information security governance (ISG). As organizational perimeters dissolve into federated, multi-actor, and ephemeral environments, the hierarchical model of a single governing authority enforcing uniform policy becomes not only obsolete but actively detrimental to system resilience. This research examines the critical governance tension between the necessity for central control to manage aggregate risk and the operational reality of local autonomy required for distributed system performance. By adopting a coordination-theoretic lens, this article conceptualizes security governance not as a static command structure but as a dynamic, distributed coordination problem. The study identifies and analyzes specific mechanisms for aligning security responsibilities, decision rights, and assurance processes across autonomous nodes without relying on a single root of trust or a monolithic control plane. Key insights reveal that effective governance in decentralized environments depends on the implementation of polycentric decision-making frameworks, the utilization of automated policy-as-code enforcement, and the adoption of consensus-based assurance mechanisms. The findings suggest that a shift from "governance by mandate" to "governance by protocol" is essential for securing the next generation of digital infrastructure.

This paper proposes a Decentralized Autonomous Intelligence (DAI) architecture that overcomes the self-referential limitations of conventional AI and Web3 systems by dynamically grounding collective intelligence in physical reality. By coupling internal consensus with high-fidelity external data such as environmental, biological, and economic signals, the framework prevents value drift, Sybil manipulation, and speculative bias. The result is a reality-aligned, secure, and scalable intelligence system optimized for real-world utility and immediate deployment.
AI agents now coordinate cryptographic tasks such as key management, protocol negotiation, zero-knowledge verification, and anomaly response across heterogeneous systems. Despite rapid progress, practical deployments still face gaps in protocol interoperability, verifiable privacy, and post-quantum readiness that hinder trustworthy adoption. This survey systematizes the field across cryptanalysis, cryptographic design, and secure multi-agent coordination, structuring the discussion around protocol families (MCP, A2A, ACP, ANP) and core primitives (MPC, HE, ZKP, PQC). Contributions include a two-dimensional taxonomy, a transparent survey methodology, a state-of-the-art comparison using shared criteria (interpretability, robustness, scalability, PQC readiness, proof overhead), an explicit limitations analysis, and practice-oriented guidance for engineering and governance. The synthesis clarifies trade-offs and provides a deployment roadmap for agentic cryptography in IoT, finance, and identity systems.
<b><i>State and event validation</i></b> are fundamental for ensuring the correctness and integrity of system states as they transition across decentralized networks. In decentralized systems, such as blockchain or distributed ledgers, maintaining state consistency, triggering actions based on events, and validating those actions across nodes require robust consensus protocols. This paper explores the architecture of state and event validation mechanisms, addressing challenges such as node synchronization, consensus-based event ordering, and error handling in invalid state transitions. By examining the role of validation in maintaining trust and reliability, we highlight its importance in secure and scalable decentralized applications, including smart contracts, financial transactions, and IoT systems.
<b><i>Liquidity Exit Drain</i></b>, also referred to as a <b><i>Rug Stream</i></b>, describes a class of gradual capital extraction attacks in decentralized finance (DeFi) and stablecoin ecosystems. Unlike abrupt rug pulls or discrete exploit-based failures, Liquidity Exit Drains operate through prolonged, cumulative actions that remain within protocol-defined operational and governance boundaries. By exploiting trust persistence, governance opacity, and parameter flexibility, these attacks systematically siphon liquidity over extended time horizons while evading conventional audits and user detection. This paper formalizes <b><i>Liquidity Exit Drain</i></b> as a distinct economic attack class, examines its structural enablers and execution patterns, and outlines why existing security, audit, and monitoring frameworks frequently fail to detect it. The analysis highlights the need for longitudinal economic oversight and governance-aware risk assessment beyond static code correctness.

Decentralized systems are increasingly required to operate across heterogeneous environments involving human presence, real-world assets, regulatory constraints, and adversarial network conditions. Traditional execution models, which assume static infrastructure, context-free computation, and pre-authorized identities, are insufficient for these emerging requirements. This paper introduces a Presence-Centric execution architecture that binds computational validity to verifiable environmental state at execution time. The proposed system is structured around two core components: the Crystal Validator, a context-aware validation layer, and an AI Feedback Loop, which enables adaptive policy enforcement based on observed outcomes. Central to this architecture is <b><i>Environment-Coupled Execution</i></b>, a model in which identity, intent, policy, and environment are jointly evaluated to determine execution validity. By treating environment as a first-class execution dependency, the system enables contextual non-repudiation, replay resistance, regulatory determinism, and post-execution auditability. The proposed approach is applicable to decentralized finance, stablecoins, real-world asset tokenization, governance systems, and presence-driven digital platforms.
