We’ve spent 7+ years (more if you're @JoshCrumb) building globally resolvable identity infrastructure to answer these questions for humans. @Abaxx_Labs extends that foundation to agents, applying the same cryptographic containers and logic to a new class of actors – enabling them to operate as trusted, verifiable extensions of the individuals and organizations they represent. The initial release of the Agents++ open-source library supports developer implementation of the ID++ protocol for AI agents, with a path to integration to our full MarketOS™ suite.
Where ID++ establishes trust for human users within a client environment, Agents++ does not extend that trust to agents, requiring them to provide explicit identity and authorization for every action.

One small step for 🆔++, one giant leap for agent kind. 🌖 This is the start, a first library release (more to come) of what could be the biggest moon shot within @abaxx_tech. I founded Abaxx ~eight years ago with digital identity at the core, the long horizon Thing that every other Thing gets us to. Turns out our architectural vision for humans was even more important for agents (the ones acting for humans, with protecting your data with accountability, skin in the game). Digital Identity — 🔑 to unlocking the next stage of AI (a16z) Digital Identity — 🔑 to unlocking real time token finance (Blackrock) Sovereign Identity — 🔑 to reversing the enshitification of the internet for the next generation (Abaxx) Now let’s put these libraries on a Tilt-A-Whirl. #29ers Please Retweet far and wide! #MayDay #WorldBuildersOrBust $ABXX
Meet Agents++ Our first open-source release to develop the next generation of technology that will build smarter markets. Agents are moving from tools to actors, initiating and coordinating actions across systems as delegated extensions of users and institutions.

The future of environmental finance doesn't have to be complicated. As emissions break records, energy demand accelerates & policy fragments, carbon markets only grow more complex. Base Carbon makes it simple. Real emissions reductions Measurable impact Quality carbon credits

🧵China's dominance of critical minerals markets is often demonstrated through the lens of its production and processing capacity. Less examined is its dominance of the infrastructure governing these markets. In a new piece for @CFR_China, @ash_georgexx examined this.
