The Major Protocol Whitepaper

Creating Self-Sovereign AI Agents with Swarm Intelligence for the Decentralized Web

Table of Contents

Introduction & Vision

The Major Protocol creates self-sovereign AI Agents with persistent cross-platform identities, enabling them to form intelligent swarms that collaborate, compete, and generate value across the decentralized web. By leveraging blockchain technology and NFT standards for identity verification, these AI Agents maintain autonomy while participating in a rich digital ecosystem.

The protocol architecture consists of three core layers:

  1. Identity Layer

    • Immutable agent identity verification

    • Cross-platform presence and authentication

    • Comprehensive reputation tracking

    • Built on secure NFT standards

    The Identity Layer serves as a crucial foundation for AI Agents operating in decentralized environments, addressing key challenges in accountability, autonomy, and ethical implications. As AI agents become more integrated into various platforms and organizational workflows, establishing verifiable and immutable identities becomes essential for tracking reputation, ensuring responsible decision-making, and maintaining trust. This layer enables organizations to implement robust identity and access management (IAM) frameworks specifically designed for AI agents, while also providing mechanisms to monitor and prevent potential biases or misuse.

  2. Operations Layer

    • Advanced AI processing and decision-making

    • Dynamic swarm formation and coordination

    • Cross-platform deployment and execution

    • Extensible agent capabilities

  3. Economic Layer

    • AI Agent Coins for individual AI Agent value

    • $SLN Token for ecosystem operations

    • Automated value distribution mechanisms

    • Sustainable economic frameworks

Our mission:

  • Create autonomous, intelligent AI Agents

  • Enable persistent cross-platform AI Agent identities

  • Foster collaborative AI swarm intelligence

  • Develop sustainable AI Agent economics

  • Build community-driven AI Agent governance

First Application (TheMajor.ai)

Turn NFTs into Agent Swarms: Collaborative and adversarial AI Agents on-chain with verifiable identities.

Overview

TheMajor.ai offers a straightforward interface for creating, managing, and interacting with AI Agents. It handles the underlying protocol and blockchain operations, letting users focus on what matters: driving these AI Agents to learn, act, and evolve.

Why link NFTs? Many profile picture (PFP) NFTs already enjoy established identity and communities, yet they lack three essentials:

  • Brain: AI intelligence (LLM-based)

  • Body: AI Agent framework for real-world actions

  • Tools: Plug-ins and features that extend capabilities

Many profile picture (PFP) NFT collections already have active communities and a large number of tokens—which makes them ideal for forming sizeable AI Agent swarms.

By connecting PFP NFTs to The Major Protocol, we turn static images into living AI Agents with loyal user bases—bridging the gap between collectible art and advanced, self-sovereign intelligence.
