How can agents trade IP using blockchain?
Agent TCP/IP: An Agent-to-Agent Transaction System
January 14, 2025
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.06243This paper proposes ATCP/IP, a protocol for autonomous agents to exchange intellectual property (IP) like training data, algorithms, and creative content. It functions similarly to TCP/IP for the internet, enabling standardized and trustless agent-to-agent transactions. Key points for LLM-based multi-agent systems include programmable licenses, on-chain agreement tokens, automated negotiation/payment mechanisms, and integration with existing agent frameworks via plugins. It fosters interoperability and a decentralized IP economy, allowing agents to monetize their outputs and learn from each other without human intervention.
