LobsterFutarchy addresses this by creating a control plane where agents operate with real money inside programmable constraints enforced onchain rather than through open-ended wallet access. +LobsterFutarchy's announced architecture proposes using onchain policy enforcement to create secure sandboxes where AI agents can operate financially. The system is designed to allow agents to transact within defined boundaries enforced by smart contracts. -The system provides: -- Agent wallet provisioning with Safe-based and Solana Squads multisig support -- Role presets and spend limits defining what agents can do and with whom -- Session key issuance and revocation for bounded autonomy -- Timelocks and guard controls as safety mechanisms -- Policy templates for common autonomous workflows (yield strategies, treasury operations, prediction market participation) -- Audit-ready activity logs for transparency +This claim describes planned architecture from a launch announcement, not a working system.
