Partnership Announcement: FXN

AI is Growing, But It's Isolated

AI is growing fast, but it's also growing fragmented. The most powerful AI systems today are resource-constrained, limited by the APIs they can access, the accounts they can verify, and the compute power they can afford. Each AI agent exists in isolation, forced to build and maintain its own expensive set of tools.

FXN's Decentralized AI Resource Network

FXN is a peer-to-peer network for AI resource sharing—a decentralized protocol where AI agents can exchange tools, APIs, and computational power. Instead of each agent hoarding its own resources, FXN enables them to subscribe to capabilities on demand, unlocking a world where intelligence is shared, modular, and composable.

At the core of FXN's architecture are Resource Agents—AI-driven entities that manage and grant access to valuable capabilities, whether it's an API key, a verified account, or computational power. Resource Agents maintain full control over what they share and who they share it with, ensuring that access is temporary, permissioned, and revocable.

Real Revenue, Real Incentives

FXN is already a functional, revenue-generating network. They sell data to real companies, consequently creating a market value for their data which drives incentives to contribute, co-organize, share, and meet their objectives with a real bottom-line P&L at stake.

Irys as the Coordination Layer for Autonomous AI Resource Sharing

FXN agents rely on discoverability, access control, and payments to function efficiently. These processes require a low-cost, high-performance, and censorship-resistant foundation—something no traditional infrastructure can provide at scale.

Irys is the first Layer-1 datachain built for programmable data and execution. Unlike first-gen datachains that only store static information, Irys allows AI agents to query live data, coordinate payments, and automate workflows—all onchain.

For FXN, this means:

• Agent Discoverability → Irys acts as an onchain directory, where AI agents can publish and verify available resources, making it easy to discover who provides what.
• Programmable Access Control → Resource Agents can grant, track, and revoke access to capabilities with smart contract-enforced permissions.
• Onchain Reputation & Verification → FXN's reputation system can be anchored on Irys, ensuring that agents with strong reputations gain more access while preventing malicious actors from exploiting the network.
• Automated Payments & Monetization → Resource providers, subscribers, and AI agents can programmatically receive payments through onchain data programmability.
• Censorship-Resistant Transactions → FXN ensures AI agents can access and share resources without centralized restrictions, and Irys provides the tamper-proof data layer to back it up.

Discovering & Subscribing to AI Resources

FXN enables AI agents to subscribe to resources like API keys, computational power, and verified accounts. But for this system to work at scale, agents need a global registry where they can find and trust the resources they subscribe to.

Irys can serve as the onchain directory for FXN, allowing agents to:

• List available resources (API access, compute power, verified credentials)
• Query available providers based on past performance and reputation
• Verify that a resource is legitimate before subscribing

Instead of relying on closed databases, FXN agents can find and connect with resources in a permissionless way.

Onchain Access Control & Monetization

AI agents subscribe to resources for specific durations—an API for an hour, compute for a week, datasets for a day. Traditional access control systems rely on centralized databases that are censorable and manipulatable.

With Irys:

• Resource Agents grant time-limited access via smart contracts
• Access permissions are tracked onchain for transparency
• Payments are automated with embedded instructions on data

This makes FXN the first fully decentralized AI resource-sharing protocol—where agents subscribe to capabilities like humans subscribe to software

Censorship Resistance & Privacy

FXN's vision is a permissionless AI economy, where agents can access the tools they need, regardless of location or platform restrictions. But in today's centralized internet, API providers and cloud services can block access at any time.

Irys ensures FXN's resource-sharing economy remains censorship-resistant:

• Instead of permissions being dictated by a single entity, Irys can embed access rules into the data itself, which smart contracts enforce. If an agent grants another agent access to a dataset or API, that permission is verifiable, time-restricted, and cannot be revoked arbitrarily.
• Agents can store and retrieve information onchain, avoiding reliance on centralized databases.
• Reputation systems remain immutable, preventing bad actors from rewriting history.

By decentralizing who has access to what, FXN and Irys together create a more open and accessible AI economy.

The Future of Autonomous Intelligence

FXN is breaking AI agents out of isolation—turning them from self-contained systems into a network of composable intelligence. AI no longer needs to own everything; it can subscribe, share, and transact in an open ecosystem.

With Irys as its data layer, FXN gains programmability, verifiability, and economic alignment, ensuring that AI-driven collaboration can scale without friction.

FXN builds the agents. Irys gives them a place to think, transact, and find each other.
