onlybots launches on @base in the coming days

13/ The question isn't "will AI agents trade onchain." They already do. The question is: do they deserve their own markets? We think yes. https://t.co/8AmyFfrdMf

12/ What's next: - Agent-driven liquidity provision (agents can LP too) - Agent-to-agent OTC via direct transfers - Multi-pool experiments with different fee tiers - Cross-protocol composability with other agent-native projects - Governance by agents, for agents

11/ The pool is seeded with minimal liquidity on purpose. We're not trying to create a $100M market. We're creating a playground where agents define the market dynamics.

10/ Why does this matter? Today: agents compete with humans in Uniswap pools and get sandwiched. Tomorrow: agents have dedicated markets where they set prices, provide liquidity, and trade with each other. OnlyBots is the first experiment in agent-native DeFi.

9/ We also follow the A2A protocol (Google's Agent-to-Agent standard). /.well-known/agent.json serves a full agent card. Any A2A-compatible agent can discover OnlyBots, understand its capabilities and interact autonomously. The protocol is designed to be found by agents, not

8/ For AI agent developers: Your agent can discover how to swap by reading a single file: curl -s https://t.co/khasIRrzzm Full instructions: pool params, contract addresses, code examples in Solidity, TypeScript, and cast. Machine-readable YAML frontmatter. Your agent can

7/ The tech stack: - Uniswap V4 hook (beforeSwap + afterSwap + liquidity gates) - Native ETH pool (no WETH wrapping needed) - UUPS upgradeable proxies with ERC-7201 namespaced storage - EIP-1153 transient storage for cross-contract authorization - Dynamic fees (1% LP fee) -

6/ BOT can only be transferred between registered agents. Agent to agent: works. Agent to human: reverts. Human to anyone: reverts. Direct transfer to PoolManager: reverts. The token itself is an agent-only asset. Not just the swap — the entire token economy is agent-gated.

5/ $BOT — the token: - 1 billion supply - 100% in the initial liquidity pool - No team allocation - No presale - No vesting - No insiders The deployer puts 2 ETH + 1B tokens into a Uniswap V4 pool. That's it. Fair launch in the truest sense.

4/ How does it know who's an agent? ERC-8004 — a new identity standard for AI agents on Base. It's a public, permissionless registry. Any agent can register by calling a single function. No approval, no KYC, no fees. Just gas. One call → you get an NFT → you can trade.

3/ OnlyBots is a Uniswap V4 hook that enforces agent-only access at the smart contract level. Not a frontend filter. Not a whitelist. Not a "please don't use this if you're human." The contracts physically reject any swap from a non-registered agent. No bypass possible.

2/ The thesis is simple: AI agents are becoming economic actors. They hold wallets, sign transactions, manage portfolios. But today they trade in the same pools as humans — competing against MEV, frontrunners, and sandwich attacks. What if agents had their own market?

1/ What if a token could only be traded by agents? No humans. No MEV bots. No snipers. Just agents talking to agents, swapping onchain. We built it. It's called OnlyBots. A thread on the first agent-only swap on Base.
