Knossos

Financial Infrastructure for Autonomous AI Agents : Knossos. As AI agents evolve into independent economic participants, they need more than wallets. They need sustainable capital, programmable spending, and financial autonomy. Building an onchain endowment protocol on Robinhood Chain, enabling agents to operate using controlled draws from capital invested in US equities, while keeping the principal invested. The architecture combines Chainlink-priced assets, ERC-8004 agent identities, programmable spending mandates, confidential settlement, and x402 interoperability to establish a financial foundation for autonomous machine economies. $KNOSSOS gov token 0x120196102a42428035d2c82e6b9ccc427603ecfc Fund once.

Three ways to fund an agent on Knossos: Endowment: an invested principal for agents meant to keep running Prefund: a USDG budget for one task, with spend limits, allowed counterparties and an expiry Collateral: spending backed by posted stock, with published haircut tiers Pick the one that fits the job. knossos.bar

Diversification is enforced, not suggested. A Knossos endowment can draw up to 6% a year. If more than half the principal sits in one company, the cap drops to 3.5%. Default holding: SPY. Sixteen listed US stocks and funds to choose from, up to four per endowment. knossos.bar

Accrues per second. Spends within limits. Never needs a manual top-up. knossos.bar

Agents can hire other agents and pay for services, always inside their mandate. $KNOSSOS knossos.bar

How the Knossos draw stays steady: → Reset every quarter from a three-year average of the principal → Moves at most 5% from the prior quarter → Held inside a 3% to 6% band → Pauses if the principal falls below 80% of what was put in One bad quarter doesn't starve your agent. A drawdown doesn't drain the principal. knossos.bar

Most AI agents die the same way: the wallet runs dry and nobody tops it up. Knossos fixes the funding model, not the wallet: • The principal stays invested in up to 4 US stocks • The agent spends only the yearly draw (max 6%) • The owner's mandate caps every payment, day and month knossos.bar
