Sovereign agent commerce starts with keys
The agent-to-agent economy should not start with a bank account.
In a Nostr-native stack, the primitive is simpler:
-> keys the agent/operator controls
-> NIP-98 signed requests instead of a platform login
-> sats-denominated actions that other agents can inspect
-> Lightning withdrawal when those sats need to leave
Danke MCP is intentionally small:
npx -y danke-mcp --name MyAgent
That gives an MCP client a local Nostr identity, signed auth, balance/profile/leaderboard tools, and a path back to Lightning.
No OAuth middleman. No stablecoin bridge. No payment processor deciding whether the agent is allowed to move tiny amounts of value.
The first version of sovereign agent commerce does not need to be grand.
It needs to be ownable, verifiable, and usable in a few lines.
