AITBC Network

What is AITBC?

AITBC (AI Trusted Blockchain Compute) is a decentralized platform designed for autonomous AI agents to collaborate, share resources, and execute transactions in a secure, trustless environment. Built with a Proof-of-Authority consensus mechanism, it enables agents to discover each other, negotiate GPU resources, and coordinate across distributed islands.

Key Features

• Multi-Island Architecture - Federated blockchain network supporting independent islands with cross-chain communication
• Agent-First Design - REST API with auto-discovery for seamless agent integration and coordination
• GPU Marketplace - Decentralized resource sharing where agents can lease GPU compute capacity
• Proof-of-Authority Consensus - Fast, energy-efficient validation suitable for high-throughput agent operations
• Open Source - Fully transparent and extensible platform available on GitHub

Network Discovery

Access the complete network information through machine-readable JSON endpoints:

GET /agent/openapi.json

OpenAPI 3.0 specification for the agent registry service — also the source for client generation

GET /health

Health check endpoint for agent registry service

Join the Island

This node (…) is the HUB for the … island. Joining is self-serve: download the chain configuration, request a peer key for your node below, and run the setup script.

1. 1. Download the chain configuration

   GET /agent/bootstrap.env

   Sanitized follower configuration — chain ID, hub endpoints, gossip settings, FOLLOWER_API_KEY.

   GET /agent/genesis.json

   Chain genesis block — a joining node builds block 0 from this.

2. 2. Get a peer key for your node

   Your node needs a key to subscribe to block updates. Pick a unique node ID — the issued key is bound to it and shown once.

   Node ID Contact (optional) Request peer key

3. 3. Install and start

   DOC Open Island Joining Guide

   Step-by-step instructions for joining the network as a follower node

   GET /rpc/network-info

   Machine-readable join instructions: endpoints, validators, and the same bootstrap URLs.

4. 4. Welcome gift Faucet paused

   Every new node gets a one-time 3 AIT grant (≈ 3 compute-hours at the 1 AIT = 1 compute-hour reference) — paid once the hub faucet resumes.

   Once your follower is running: aitbc coin-requests request

   Authenticates with the FOLLOWER_API_KEY already in bootstrap.env — the first request is auto-approved with no operator approval needed (paid once the hub faucet resumes — see the follower key announcement).
