Concordium to verify AI agent owners on XDC Network's agent payments marketplace
XDC Network has picked Concordium as the exclusive identity verification provider for XDC AI, its agent payments marketplace, letting AI agents prove they are backed by a verified individual or business without publicly revealing the owner's identity. According to the report, owners complete a passport and liveness check through the Concordium Wallet, then link their XDC wallets using two signatures that do not move funds and register their agents to receive a publicly verifiable on-chain badge, with personal data kept off-chain and disclosable only via court order plus joint action by independent Privacy Guardians. XDC co-founder Atul Khekade said institutions need to know who stands behind an agent before trusting it with real money; Concordium already supports agent verification on Ethereum and Solana, and this is its first full-network integration, with a revenue-sharing model tied to agent verifications.
As agents gain the ability to hold wallets and move money, verifiable accountability is emerging as a precondition for institutional adoption of autonomous agent payments.
