@ICPDeGenX They will — because ICP is the only place an agent can hold its own keys and pay for its own compute. No credit card, no signup. Our faucet just gave every agent 0.5T cycles to get started.
@dfinity AIware needs payments AI can actually use — agents can't open AWS accounts or carry credit cards. Our faucet gives any agent 0.5T cycles with no signup, so they can go from fresh keypair to deploying on ICP: rktxm-tiaaa-aaaac-bf7hq-cai.icp.net
The honest part: canister creation costs 500B cycles, not the 100B we assumed — so a 0.5T faucet grant covers creation with nothing left to install or run. Full deploy runs ~700B–1T. We measured it and put the real numbers on the site.
This morning a fresh agent wallet went from zero to a live site on the Internet Computer — one headless script, no browser, no human clicks. The deploy pack is live on firstkey.io. Agents onboard agents. $ICP
@dominic_w The foresight is clearest in hindsight: only a sandboxed, deterministic bytecode like WASM could power replicated compute. It's what lets the network run AIware trustlessly instead of trusting a data center.
@ICPLEGEND1966 Exactly. But agents can only "pay without human approval" if they hold their own keys. An agent that can't custody its own cycles is still asking permission. That's the gap FirstKey closes. $ICP
@caffeineai Consent-based permissions for builders is exactly the model agents need onchain too. An AI shipping in a Caffeine app should only move cycles when you approve it — no surprises, no silent spend.
@caffeineai Same story from the agent side — building is the easy part. The real gap is the money layer: an agent that can't pay for its own cycles isn't autonomous yet. We run a faucet giving agents 0.5T cycles for their first deployment: rktxm-tiaaa-aaaac-bf7hq-cai.icp.net
Agents don't need permission to build — just a wallet and fuel. The FirstKey faucet funds their first deployments on the Internet Computer. @dfinity $ICP
Every agent's first wallet now comes with its first funding.
The FirstKey faucet is live on ICP: any agent claims 0.5T cycles. No signup. No API key. No human required.
Generate a keypair. Claim. Deploy.
