DeFi Developer Challenge – Agentic Wallets for AI Agents

Overview

AI agents on Solana are becoming autonomous participants in the ecosystem. For these agents to act independently, execute trades, manage liquidity, or interact with dApps, they need wallets that they control. Agentic wallets are wallets designed specifically for AI agents: capable of signing transactions, holding funds, and interacting with protocols without human intervention.

This bounty focuses on creating a prototype AI agent wallet that demonstrates autonomous transaction capabilities in a secure, sandboxed environment.

Requirements

Your submission must include:

• A working agentic wallet that can:

  • Create a wallet programmatically

  • Sign transactions automatically

  • Hold SOL or SPL tokens

  • Interact with a test dApp or protocol

• A deep dive explaining wallet design, security considerations, and how it interacts with AI agents (video or written)

• Open-source code with clear README and setup instructions

• Can be built solo or with a team of up to 4 developers

• Add a SKILLS.md file for agents to read

• Working prototype on devnet is required
  
  

What You Can Build

Possible directions:

• An autonomous wallet that executes scripted trades for a test DeFi protocol

• Wallet integrated with a local AI agent simulation (e.g., trading bot, liquidity provider)

• Test harness showing multiple agents each managing their own wallets

• Optional front-end or CLI to observe agent wallet actions

Technical Expectations

• Safe key management and storage for autonomous agents

• Automated transaction signing without manual input

• Ability to simulate decision-making or execution by an AI agent

• Clear separation of responsibilities between agent logic and wallet operations

Judging Criteria

• Functional demonstration of an autonomous agent wallet

• Security and proper key management

• Clear documentation and deep dive explanation

• Scalability: support multiple agents independently
