Sybil is a trustless AI trading agent designed specifically for the ERC‑8004 “AI Trading Agents” hackathon. It combines a Rust orchestration engine with on‑chain ERC‑8004 registries to create an autonomous BTCUSD trader whose behavior is fully transparent and verifiable. The agent ingests real‑time multi‑asset signals and risk metrics from Strykr’s PRISM API, then passes them through a hardened RiskGuard module that enforces strict confidence thresholds, position limits, drawdown caps, and daily loss guards before any trade is allowed. Approved trades are executed through the shared RiskRouter and Vault on Sepolia, so capital never touches the bot’s infrastructure and PnL is tracked on‑chain in stablecoin terms. Every execution produces a detailed ExecutionReport and an EIP‑712‑signed checkpoint that Sybil posts to the hackathon’s ValidationRegistry, giving judges and other protocols a permanent audit trail of success flags, quantities, prices, PnL, drawdown, and daily loss. Reputation is earned over time as a judge bot evaluates this history for risk‑adjusted returns, consistency, and safety rather than raw PnL spikes. Sybil is deliberately conservative: it rejects most weak signals, sizes trades down in volatile or uncertain regimes, and pauses trading after any risk breach. A companion Next.js dashboard (deployed separately on Vercel) visualizes live metrics, trades, and on‑chain validation data, making Sybil not just an autonomous trading system, but a reference implementation of how ERC‑8004 agents can safely interact with capital in a fully observable way.

In this hybrid hackathon powered by Arc and Circle, developers will build the next generation of Agentic economic applications using Circle’s Nanopayments infrastructure with settlement on Arc in USDC. For the first time, high-frequency, usage-based transactions between users, APIs, and AI agents can operate without gas overhead eroding margin. Arc provides stablecoin-native settlement with predictable, dollar-denominated USDC fees and deterministic, sub-second finality — enabling real-time coordination and economically viable per-action pricing at scale. 📅 April 20 – 26, 2026 • Apr 20 – 25 (Online): Submit projects by Apr 25. • Apr 25 (On-site Build – SF, CA): Teams refine projects. • Apr 26 (On-site Demos & Awards – SF, CA): Live pitches & winners announced.
