All shareholders will receive a one-time payout of $0.05 per share in ETH. Shareholders who transfer their shares to book entry with the company’s transfer agent and hold them until January 26, 2026, will earn an extra $0.35 per share in ETH.

Ethereum protocol developer Davide Crapis introduced ERC-8004, a standard that extends the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol by adding a trust layer that allows discovery and interaction with AI agents across organizational boundaries. The standard proposes three onohain registries, Identity, Reputation, and Validation, while leaving complex scoring, aggregation, and incentives to offchain infrastructure. A2A currently operates within trusted organizational boundaries. ERC-8004 aims to support an open, cross-organizational AI agent economy by providing a unified interface and tiered trust models suited to different levels of risk. The ERC is currently in a draft phase and open for community feedback.
