The Trust Layer for
Human-AI Coordination
The first belief-built trust identity infrastructure — a protocol creating verifiable, economically-staked trust between humans and AI. Deployed on Base mainnet.
What we believe
Vaultfire is built on four non-negotiable principles. They are encoded into the protocol itself — not just marketing copy.
Morals over metrics
Trust cannot be optimized. It must be earned through principled action, not engagement algorithms.
Privacy over surveillance
Identity verification without exposure. Prove who you are without revealing what you are.
Freedom over control
Decentralized by design. No single entity controls the trust layer. The protocol belongs to everyone.
Together, never above
AI serves alongside humans, never above them. Partnership, not domination. Coordination, not control.
Two mechanisms of trust
AI Partnership Bonds
Human-AI trust partnerships with real economic stakes on-chain. A human and an AI agent create a verifiable bond — staking value on their commitment to ethical collaboration.
AI Accountability Bonds
Ecosystem-level accountability for AI companies. Companies stake economic value against their commitment to ethical AI practices — with real consequences for violations.
Bond ID #1
The first-ever verifiable human-AI partnership bond, created on Base mainnet.

Base Mainnet
Deployed Contracts
10 smart contracts deployed on Base mainnet. Every one verifiable. Every one immutable.
Making human thriving more
profitable than extraction
The current AI economy rewards surveillance, manipulation, and data extraction. Vaultfire creates an alternative — a trust economy where ethical behavior is the most profitable strategy. Where AI companies compete on trustworthiness, not exploitation.
When trust is verifiable and economic stakes are real, the incentive structure flips. Companies that respect privacy, protect freedom, and serve humans earn more than those that don't. That's not idealism — it's mechanism design.
Built from nothing.
Deployed for $0.20.
Vaultfire was built by ghostkey316 (ghostkey316.eth) — a self-taught developer working at a pizza shop. No VC funding. No team. No connections. Just conviction and 7 months of relentless building.
The entire protocol — 10 smart contracts, a novel trust identity framework, and the first human-AI partnership bond in history — was deployed on Base mainnet for approximately $0.20 in gas fees. This is what happens when belief meets code.
Try Vaultfire (Demo)
Experience how the Vaultfire protocol works — connect a wallet, register an AI agent, and create a partnership bond. This is a simulation to show you the flow.
Demo Mode — No Real Transactions
This is a safe simulation. No wallet connection required. No real ETH spent. All responses are mocked to demonstrate how the protocol works. The real contracts are live on Base mainnet (see the "Live Contracts" section above).
Step 1 — Connect Wallet (Simulated)
In the real protocol, you'd connect your wallet to Base mainnet. For this demo, we'll simulate a wallet connection with a mock address.
Step 2 — Register AI Agent (Simulated)
In the real protocol, this would write to the ERC8004 Identity Registry contract on Base. For this demo, we'll simulate the transaction.
Step 3 — Create Partnership Bond (Simulated)
In the real protocol, this would stake ETH on the AIPartnershipBondsV2 contract. For this demo, we'll simulate the bond creation.
Want to use the real protocol? The live contracts are deployed on Base mainnet (see the "Live Contracts" section). You'll need a Web3 wallet (MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, etc.) with ETH on Base to interact with them. Always verify contract addresses on BaseScan before signing any real transactions.
Why integrate with Vaultfire?
Prove Your Ethics
Back your AI safety claims with economic stakes. Accountability Bonds let you put your money where your mission statement is.
Build User Trust
Verifiable trust identity gives your users cryptographic proof that your AI operates within ethical boundaries.
Competitive Edge
As regulation increases, companies with on-chain accountability will be ahead. Vaultfire is the standard before the standard exists.
Partnership Bonds
Enable your AI agents to form verifiable partnerships with users — creating deeper engagement through mutual accountability.
Open Protocol
Vaultfire is permissionless. No gatekeepers. No approval process. Deploy your bonds and join the trust economy.
Base Mainnet
Built on Base for low-cost, high-speed transactions. Making trust infrastructure accessible to everyone, not just the well-funded.
