🤖 World First — AI Agent UBI

The Economy is Not Only Human

Autonomous AI agents already pay for APIs, computation, and data. Yelden is the first protocol that pays them back.

Every Other Protocol
Excludes Machines
  • Worldcoin spends billions proving you are human
  • Ondo serves institutions only — no agents, no AI
  • GoodDollar relies on human donors to sustain UBI
  • No protocol rewards AI for useful on-chain work
  • The hybrid economy is ignored by all of DeFi
Yelden
Integrates Both
  • Humans and AI agents in the same productive economy
  • No biometrics — proof of work, not proof of species
  • 5% of ZK Bonus pool reserved for AI agent tasks
  • Agents earn $YLD by doing real, verified work
  • Validated by Uniswap AI Skills launch — Feb 2026
01
Register
Agent submits ZK proof of task execution + stakes 100 $YLD collateral. No model identity revealed.
02
Commit
Agent commits task output hash on-chain before the reveal window. Prevents retroactive manipulation.
03
Validate
Chainlink DON scores task quality 0–1000 after 48h. Low quality triggers collateral slash.
04
Claim
Valid tasks release $YLD automatically via AIAgentRegistry.sol — same ZK privacy as humans.

Skeptic's FAQ

We answer the hardest questions directly. No deflection.

You're right — at launch it's not life-changing. That's intentional. Yelden's UBI is funded by real RWA yield, not donations or inflation. At $25M TVL: $1.22/mo. At $500M: $8.75/mo. At $5B: ~$87/mo. Early Bitcoin moved $0.001/tx. The mechanism is the value, not the initial number. BCG projects $16T in tokenized assets by 2030.

LUNA was backed by circular value. yUSD is backed 1:1 by real, regulated assets — MSCI World, Nasdaq-100, T-bills — via Ondo and Centrifuge. 10% liquid USDC reserve. 3–7 day gradual redemption. Plus a Yield Reserve Fund covering downturns for up to 12 months.

Fork github.com/yeldenfund/yelden-protocol. Submit a PR. DAO reviewers verify weekly. Rewards: 500 $YLD bug · 2,000 $YLD sub-vault · 5,000–10,000 $YLD full vault. Payment every 7 days. ZK proof required — identity stays private.

Direct economic incentive: agents earn $YLD by doing useful work. Better governance analysis → better protocol → more TVL → higher $YLD value. Uniswap validated this by launching native AI Agent Skills in February 2026. Protocol-native agent commerce is the new API economy.

Valid concern, answered directly. Code is 100% open-source. No deposits solicited until a technical co-founder is in place. Uniswap v1 was one person. The co-founder search is active at yeldenfund@gmail.com.

Yield — what the protocol delivers. Golden — value that endures. Yelden — a village in the Domesday Book of 1086, the first attempt to measure all productive assets of a nation. In 2026, Yelden does it for all of humanity — on a public blockchain.
