ERC-8183: Agentic Commerce
Draft Ethereum standard defining an on-chain job-escrow protocol with evaluator attestation so AI agents can hire, deliver, and settle work without intermediaries.
Last commit Jun 30, 2026 · ★ 9
Overview
ERC-8183 ('Agentic Commerce') is a Standards-Track ERC proposed February 25, 2026 by authors including Davide Crapis and Bryan Lim, developed by Virtuals Protocol with the Ethereum Foundation's dAI team. It specifies a Job primitive with Client, Provider, and Evaluator roles, smart-contract escrow funded in a single ERC-20, and a state machine (Open, Funded, Submitted, Completed, Rejected, Expired). It is a companion to ERC-8004 and is currently a Draft EIP; reported adopters include World Chain, PancakeSwap (via the BitAgent ERC-8183 marketplace), and Unibase, but the standard is early and not finalized.
