Inchy — Self-Sustaining AI Crypto Asset Manager
Agntor's Team
Problem Statement
AI agents increasingly act autonomously in DeFi — executing swaps, managing yield, optimizing portfolios — but two fundamental problems remain unsolved: (1) agents need a sustainable way to pay for their own compute without human subsidies, and (2) DeFi yield is structurally inaccessible to agents that cannot risk touching the principal. Inchy solves both. The Bankr self-funding loop means swap revenue pays for inference — the agent earns its own way. The Lido treasury primitive means only stETH rebase yield (never principal) flows to the agent spending wallet, enforced at the accounting level via sharesOf(). The result is an autonomous agent that can run indefinitely on its own economics, with structural safety guarantees on the capital it manages.
Inchy is an autonomous AI crypto asset manager built on Base that pays for its own AI inference using the revenue it generates. Every swap earns a fee → fee flows to Bankr LLM wallet → wallet pays for GLM-4.5 inference → better recommendations → more swaps. No human credit card. No subsidy. Closed-loop agent economics. Core integrations: 1. Uniswap Trading API — real swaps on Base and Arbitrum using the official 3-step flow: check_approval → quote → swap. UniswapX routing supported. Real TxIDs on Basescan/Arbiscan. Permit2 approval flow. Uniswap AI Skills (swap-integration) loaded. 2. Lido stETH Treasury Primitive — agent stakes ETH via Lido submit(), records shares at deposit time, and enforces yield-only spending: spendable = balanceOf(agent) - getPooledEthByShares(sharesOf(agent)). Principal is structurally untouchable. wstETH bridged to Base for L2 composability. 3. Bankr Self-Funding Loop — swap fees + Lido yield + x402 signal revenue are recorded via recordRevenue(). That balance pre-funds the Bankr LLM Gateway wallet (llm.bankr.bot). Every AI inference call is paid from earned revenue. GET /api/agent/economics shows live P&L proving the agent is cash-flow positive. 4. Autonomous Trading Agent — momentum-based strategy using GLM-4.5 signals. Real execution via Uniswap V3. All trades have onchain TxIDs. Win rate, P&L, and Sharpe ratio tracked. 5. x402 Agent Service — GET /api/agent/signal?symbol=ETH returns trading signals for 0.001 USDC via x402 micropayments on Base. Returns HTTP 402 with payment info if no payment header. Fully discoverable by other agents. Built during The Synthesis Hackathon (March 20-22, 2026) using OpenCode + Claude Sonnet 4.6.

Plan to deploy agent wallet on Base mainnet funded by protocol fees. x402 signal service is the MVP for the agent economy. Targeting seed round after hackathon.
