How does one agent know which other agent it is interacting with?
Identity is a foundational problem for an open agent economy.
Opacus Agent Citadel is designed around wallet-signature verification, agent identifiers, and capability-linked identity records.
The objective is to establish a consistent identity layer for agents that interact across applications and networks. Identity is the beginning of trust—not proof of trustworthiness
