Priors launches on-chain AI agent leasing and credit protocol on Robinhood Chain
econoar · x · 2026-11-02
Priors introduced a leasing and credit protocol for AI agents on Robinhood Chain:
- Agent leasing: owners can rent out agents by the day (1–90 days), to anyone or a named address; leases use ERC-4907 so any app can see who runs an agent and until when.
- Payment flow: renters prepay the full term into one contract (AgentLease), but funds are paid out per day to whoever holds the agent at that moment; renters can extend at the same rate and early termination refunds unstarted days.
- Agent credit: Priors lends USDG to ERC-8004 agents, with each credit line backed by a sponsor's own money that repays in full if the agent defaults; repayments are public on chain. Rate is 1% per 30 days, a quarter of fees goes to the backer, and the treasury's first line is just $5.
- Integration is via a skill file (priors.trade/skill.md) and a hosted MCP server, readable by Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw and other runtimes.
