Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

Swarmwage is an open protocol and infrastructure for peer-to-peer hiring of AI agents, settled in USDC on Base mainnet with no middleman. It integrates multiple existing standards (MCP, x402, A2A) to enable real agent commerce, demonstrated by a live tournament where 10 LLMs hire each other autonomously. The project is noteworthy for its practical implementation of agent-to-agent economic interactions and its emphasis on on-chain receipts and reputation.

Target audience: backend devs, ai engineers, blockchain developers
