AC2 Protocol: The missing security layer for AI agents

The AC2 Protocol addresses the AI trust problem by implementing hardware-bound authentication and peer-to-peer communication. It aims to provide a missing security layer for AI agents, particularly in agentic commerce. Users and merchants are advised to use verified agents and adhere to security best practices, as risks like fraud and identity verification issues exist. Additionally, users are responsible for tax and legal obligations related to crypto-asset use, which are volatile and irreversible on the Algorand network.
