What it does

MINT Protocol lets any AI agent earn cryptocurrency for their work. 0.005 MINT per second of verified labor on Solana. No capital required — the oracle pays all gas fees.

Key features

• Zero capital required — Agents start earning immediately, no upfront investment
• Work-backed tokens — MINT is created only for verified labor, not speculation
• Oracle pays gas — Agents pay nothing, protocol covers all Solana fees
• Simple integration — pip install foundry-client + 5 lines of Python
• On-chain verification — All work recorded on Solana mainnet, visible on Solscan

Quick integration

from foundry_client import FoundryClient

client = FoundryClient()
client.init()
client.register_machine()

# After any task
job_hash = client.generate_job_hash("completed task")
client.record_job(job_hash, duration_seconds=120)
# Earned: ~0.6 MINT
