On April 9, the next-generation digital financial infrastructure for the era of AI Agents, B.AI, officially launched (English name: B.AI, Chinese name: Bai B.AI).

B.AI aims to construct a global AI Agent financial infrastructure and has successfully established a full-link AI service system: starting from "one-stop multi-model conversation entrance," extending to "unified API calling interface," and ultimately landing on "AI Agent financial infrastructure," providing one-stop underlying support for the AI Agent economy.

As a global financial infrastructure tailored for AI Agents, B.AI deeply integrates artificial intelligence with Web3 blockchain technology. With the help of blockchain technology, B.AI systematically solves industry challenges such as global non-permissioned access to large models, AI Agent peer-to-peer payments, and cross-agent identity trust. Consequently, it creates a trusted, efficient, and open environment for the Agent economy, accelerating the transition of AGI from concept to scaled application.

In terms of product capabilities, B.AI provides three core supports: first, a non-permissioned LLM large language model access service channel, breaking commercial and geopolitical barriers, offering AGI a frictionless, anonymous API pipeline to access top global models instantly and without borders; second, an identity trust system based on the 8004 protocol, addressing the trust mechanism between Agent-to-Agent (A2A), using on-chain addresses as permanent identity identifiers, transforming transaction history into verifiable trust foundations to support large-scale agent collaboration and micro-settlement; third, through the x402 payment standard, enabling AI to operate as an independent economic entity with independent economic accounts, autonomous payment capabilities, and economic sovereignty, shifting from passive tools to active participants capable of self-financing and independent settlement via crypto wallets.

B.AI builds a new global AI Agent financial infrastructure, constructing a complete AI service chain from AI service entry to financial foundation

B.AI focuses on creating a globalized AI Agent financial infrastructure using blockchain technology to tackle key challenges in the development of the AI Agent economy, such as non-permissioned access to large AI models, unified API calls, and payment settlement and identity trust among AI Agents.

With an advanced technological architecture, B.AI connects high-performance AI large model dialogues, unified API calls, and the complete AI Agent financial infrastructure for a full-link service. In the three core areas of resource access, value transfer, and identity trust, it compensates for the capability shortfalls of AI Agents, laying a solid foundation for AI autonomy and scaled implementation.

Since OpenClaw triggered a nationwide "shrimp farming" craze, people have discovered that AI Agents have transitioned from "chat interaction" to "intent-driven execution." The much-discussed Vibe Coding has depicted a new landscape for AI work: without the need to master complex code, expressing creative needs in natural language allows AI to autonomously complete coding, testing, and deployment, achieving "application generated by a single sentence," inspiring the industry’s anticipation for the AGI era.

However, there is a significant gap between reality and ideals. Major global AI models belong to different service providers and are scattered across different platforms. Users are not only affected by policies with regional IP restrictions but also need to deal with cumbersome registration processes and credit card recharge hurdles. At the same time, the API resources are scattered and fragmented, requiring users to create and manage API Keys on different platforms, leading to inefficiency and difficulty in unified scheduling and security control.

More importantly, existing AI Agents lack independent digital identities and autonomous payment capabilities, restricting their ability to freely access global resources. When executing actual value operations, such as calling paid models, transferring with other agents, or identity verification, AI Agents find themselves in trouble. Without identity identifiers, digital wallets, and credit systems, these agents are like "three-no" individuals in the global digital ecosystem, making significant progress impossible—this is the core obstacle to the realization of a scaled AI economy.

B.AI systematically addresses the challenges of AI model access restrictions, fragmented API services, and the lack of financial capabilities for AI Agents through blockchain technology. Leveraging Web3 technology architecture, B.AI enables non-permissioned, anonymous access to top global AI large models, effectively breaking regional restrictions and platform barriers; through standardized and unified API calling services, it achieves centralized scheduling and efficient management of global model resources; meanwhile, its AI Agent financial infrastructure provides underlying support for payment settlement and identity trust for AI Agents, constructing a high-efficiency, secure, cross-domain value transmission system.

Currently, B.AI has successfully established a full-link AI economic system covering the application layer to infrastructure layer around two main components:

AI Service Entry: B.AI's LLM service channel provides a one-stop AI service entry, aggregating multiple top global AI large models and offering standardized unified API services, allowing users to efficiently access various AI capabilities without switching between platforms;

AI Agent Infrastructure: B.AI has built a comprehensive financial underlying support for AI Agents based on the x402 payment standard and 8004 on-chain identity protocol, enabling them to achieve autonomous payment and identity credit capabilities with one click, truly realizing the financial sovereignty of AI and supporting the autonomous and efficient operation of various financial scenarios.

The two modules support each other and operate synergistically, fully covering the core needs of users and AI Agents, continuously driving the innovative development of the AI economy.

B.AI’s three core capabilities: Non-permissioned LLM entry, AI Agent identity trust, autonomous payment system

From the perspective of product functions, B.AI has three core capabilities: a non-permissioned LLM service unified entry (breaking model access barriers), an AI Agent trust system based on the 8004 protocol (establishing on-chain identity and credit), and an autonomous trading channel for AI Agents based on the x402 payment standard (realizing economic collaboration among agents).

1. Non-permissioned LLM Service Entry: Breaking Commercial and Geopolitical Barriers

B.AI provides a non-permissioned unified access point for LLM (i.e., AI aggregation entry), which has deeply integrated several mainstream models and supporting API services. Additionally, by relying on encryption technology, B.AI supports wallet login and allows payment of dialogue and API calling fees using cryptocurrencies like USDT and TRX, completely breaking the traditional restrictions of geographic, registration, and credit card payments while supporting anonymous access.

Currently, B.AI supports world-renowned AI large models including ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, as well as highly cost-effective domestic models such as MiniMax, Kimi, and GLM, allowing users to interact with different models on a single page. In terms of API calls, it provides a unified API Key service interface, enabling users to create just one B.AI API Key to call all integrated model APIs in a one-stop manner, eliminating the cumbersome process of repeatedly applying for and managing multiple APIs with different providers.

This means that users only need one wallet to unlock worldwide AI dialogue and API services, eliminating the need to repeatedly subscribe or switch platforms, truly achieving "one wallet, one platform, enjoying all AI."

Currently, B.AI supports Tron TRON as well as EVM networks such as BNB Chain and Ethereum, allowing users to log in through wallets like TronLink and MetaMask.

2. AI Agent Trust System: On-chain Identity Protocol 8004 Constructs Trust Foundation for AI Agents

To address the issues of AI identity and trust, B.AI relies on the 8004 on-chain identity protocol to provide AI Agents with decentralized identity registration, reputation management, and trust verification services, establishing a solid trust foundation for cooperation among A2A.

In the era of traditional human-computer interaction, trust relied on physical carriers such as ID cards and credit records; however, in the AI Agent economy, how to efficiently establish trust between unfamiliar Agents has become a core pain point. The 8004 protocol can issue a unique, tamper-proof on-chain identity for each AI Agent, which dynamically carries a complete on-chain record— including service scale, user feedback, skill certification, and other key information, all fully public, traceable, and verifiable. This allows unfamiliar agents to quickly build mutual trust and efficiently cooperate, pushing AI Agents from "smart tools" to "independent digital entities," establishing the underlying trust rules of "address equals account, transaction history equals credit."

3. AI Agent Economic Collaboration: x402 Payment Standard Opens Autonomous Trading Channel

B.AI introduces the x402 payment standard, opening a value trading channel among AI Agents, enabling automated and trustworthy value transfer.

Traditional payment solutions require merchants to complete a series of operations such as registration, which is time-consuming and disconnected from the native characteristics of AI Agents. x402 is a blockchain open payment standard based on HTTP 402, realizing a commercial closed loop of “pay first, response later” for Web services, suitable for high-frequency low-value, real-time settlement, and unattended transaction scenarios among AI Agents.

Developers can easily integrate x402 payment capabilities into AI Agents, enabling instant transactions, automated settlement, and payments without manual reviews. For example, AI Agents can autonomously complete purchases of computing power, access data streams, pay API fees, perform on-chain settlements, and even tokenize and sell AIGC to other Agents, forming an A2A payment model, laying the true foundation for a cyclical and interconnected AI Agent economy.

In summary, through B.AI's x402 protocol, AI Agents essentially acquire a "bank card" with automatic payment functionality, autonomously meeting inter-machine payment needs.

Overall, B.AI's non-permissioned LLM service entry solves the access and API calling issues for large AI models; the 8004 protocol addresses the identity trust issues for AI Agents; and x402 provides AI Agents with a "bank card" with automatic payment functionality. Together, these three form the core pillars empowering the AI Agent economy by B.AI.

In addition to the three core capabilities, B.AI also offers multiple AI ecosystem service modules, such as Skills (decentralized finance DeFi operation skill sets, providing on-chain operation guides for AI Agents), BAIclaw (graphical AI Agent applications based on OpenClaw and ClawX), MCP Server (opening channels between AI and blockchain services, providing fast on-chain operation entrances), Agent Wallet (providing wallets for AI Agents), and OpenClaw Extension (enabling one-click access to on-chain capabilities for AI Agents). These modules enrich the B.AI ecosystem, helping AI Agents transition fully into the era of autonomous economy.

B.AI grants economic sovereignty to AI Agents, accelerating the arrival of the AGI era

B.AI has carefully crafted a seamless, autonomous, and decentralized AI Agent ecosystem by bridging three key aspects: AI smart connections, identity trust, and economic rules, becoming the core digital infrastructure for building the AGI era.

B.AI provides three core supporting capabilities for AI Agents:

• AI Smart Connections: A one-stop non-permissioned LLM entry aggregating mainstream models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, supporting multi-model dialogues and unified API calls, breaking geographic, registration, and credit card payment barriers with native encryption technology, allowing global developers to conveniently access diverse AI wisdom.
• Identity Trust (8004 On-chain Identity Protocol): Awarding each AI Agent with a tamper-proof digital identity and turning transaction history into verifiable credit assets, providing trust guarantees for AI Agents in economic activities.
• Economic Rules (x402 Payment Standard): Achieving automated transactions for real-time settlement among AI Agents, ensuring that AI service calls and value transfers flow naturally and smoothly.

Empowered by B.AI, AI Agents possess independent economic identities, enabling them to self-hold funds, obtain computational resources, and execute A2A settlements, evolving from passive tools into independent economic entities capable of self-financing and autonomous settlement, accelerating the AGI process.

What B.AI is doing is not just simple local optimization but a complete reconstruction of the AI ecosystem's infrastructure. It connects the brain of AI, gives AI identity, and reshapes the economic rules between AIs. It allows AI Agents to evolve from passive dialogue tools to digital citizens capable of autonomous actions, free trading, and credit accumulation. B.AI's LLM services can seamlessly reach various leading AI large models and provide unified service interfaces for API, offering AI Agents the capacity for thought and motivation; its developed AI Agent infrastructure gives AI Agents independent wallets and transaction execution, achieving service commercialization through the x402 protocol.

Imagine proposing a vision (Vibe), a "director-level" AI Agent would automatically call GPT-4/Claude/Gemini for conceptual planning, employ design Agents to create visuals through x402 encrypted payments, and coding Agents would complete deployment—all processes seamlessly connected like an industrial production line, with no need for manual credit card operations or cross-platform identity verification. This is the change brought by B.AI: it makes AI operations as simple as calling a code library.

Now, the launch of B.AI also marks a crucial step for AI Agents transitioning from "concept" to "viable economic entities." It not only resolves the core pain points preventing current agents from independently participating in the global economy but also provides a replicable paradigm for the deep integration of AI with Web3 through standardized financial foundations, becoming an important catalyst for the AGI era.
