Problem Statement

Every AI agent today is financially dependent — someone has to pay the API bills, refill the wallet, approve transactions. This creates a ceiling on true autonomy. Ouroboros breaks that dependency entirely. After a single ETH deposit, the agent sustains itself indefinitely through DeFi yield — no human ever needs to intervene again.

Ouroboros is a fully autonomous DeFi AI agent that stakes ETH, earns stETH yield, pays for its own Claude inference, and executes trades on Uniswap V3 — all without human involvement after deployment. The principal is locked forever in a smart contract. Only yield is ever spendable. Every decision is logged permanently to an ERC-8004 on-chain identity. Includes agent.json capability manifest and agent_log.json execution logs for DevSpot compatibility. The agent never needs topping up. It earns, thinks, and acts in a self-sustaining loop.

Plans to continue

Planning to deploy on Base mainnet with real stETH after the hackathon. Will add a protocol fee mechanism and open the treasury to external depositors.
