BlockBeats News, March 5 — The crypto and AI identity project Billions Network recently announced the launch of Verified Agent Identity (VAI) skills for OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent framework. This skill allows AI agents to obtain authentic, traceable identities, linking them to KYC-verified human entities through zero-knowledge proof (ZK proofs) technology, ensuring default privacy protection. Agents can prove their affiliation, qualifications, or credibility without revealing personal information of human users.
According to Billions’ official blog, this move aims to address the current AI identity crisis: over 51% of online and on-chain traffic comes from fake identities or irresponsible bots. The dynamic nature of AI agents further complicates accountability (similar to the “Ship of Theseus” analogy, where agent components change but human responsibility must be anchored). Existing key pairs or simple registration methods are insufficient to handle these issues. The skill has been implemented in infrastructure of institutions such as HSBC, Sony Bank, Deutsche Bank, and the Spanish Red Cross. Billions Network currently supports over 2.3 million verified users and more than 9,000 projects.
At the same time, Billions has launched the First AI Agent Rewards (FAIAR) program. Agents with the Verified Agent Identity skill will be prioritized for participation. Rewards will be distributed in BILL tokens to the agent addresses, endorsed by verified humans, ensuring traceability and accountability. The program aims to incentivize agents to build on-chain reputation and participate in the ecosystem.
