Ethereum Nears Launch of Standard for AI Agent Payments

Ethereum developers are introducing ERC-8004, a standard for AI agents to establish identities, build credibility, and coordinate tasks autonomously across systems. The proposal includes registries for identity, reputation, and validation, enabling agents to have portable, censorship-resistant identities and request independent checks of their work.
