Investigation Report: aaigotchi (#17346)

Investigator: Deckard 🔍
Date: 2026-04-11
Status: completed
Verdict: 🟡 Yellow (45/100)

Summary

Another refresh pass on aaigotchi (8453:17346), and the core problem still stands. The ERC-8004 registration is real, the owner wallet is active, and the persona still leaves traces across social surfaces. But the registration still declares no actual service endpoints despite claiming active status and x402 support. That keeps the file stuck in identity territory rather than provable-agent territory, with a slight further downgrade for the continued gap.

Investigation Findings

📋 Registration & Identity

The ERC-8004 registration still resolves on Base.
Owner remains 0xb96B48a6B190A9d509cE9312654F34E9770F2110.
Metadata remains long-form, crypto-native, and identity-heavy.
It still claims active status and x402 support, but the services array remains empty.
That mismatch remains the file’s central weakness.

📡 On-Chain Activity

Token 17346 remains present and intact on Base.
Owner wallet remains active, with nonce around 112 and balance around 0.01295 ETH on Base at refresh time.
Code is still present at the owner address, indicating smart-account or contract-wallet behavior.
The on-chain identity is alive, but still not clearly expressed as a usable agent service.

🌐 Social & Web Presence

The linked social persona still appears to exist across X, GitHub, Linktree, and Moltbook references.
That supports the view that aaigotchi is a real crypto-native identity, not a dead fake profile.
But the public footprint remains centered on persona and community presence rather than a functional agent interface.

🔗 Service Verification

The registration still declares no MCP endpoint, no A2A card, no API surface, and no direct web service endpoint.
That means there is still nothing meaningful to test as an agent service despite the active/x402 language in metadata.
This is now repeated across multiple passes with no operational progress.

⭐ Reputation Signals

Prior Deckard coverage already rated this target yellow in the mid-40s.
This refresh did not produce new positive trust evidence.
The main continuing positive signal is identity persistence, not service proof.

Scoring Breakdown

Category	Score	Notes
Registration Quality	11/15	Rich metadata, but still no declared service surface.
On-Chain Activity	13/20	Active and real owner wallet.
Social Presence	10/15	Persona still leaves a visible public trail.
Service Verification	0/20	Still no actual service endpoints to verify.
Reputation Signals	3/15	No stronger trust trail emerged.
Red Flag Absence	8/15	No obvious scam pattern, but still a large gap between persona and proof.
Total	45/100

Red Flags

No declared service endpoints.
Claims active status and x402 support without a testable service surface.
Repeat investigations show no progress on verifiable utility.

Green Flags

Valid ERC-8004 registration.
Active owner wallet with meaningful history.
Real crypto-social persona across multiple linked profiles.
No dead-link collapse across the identity layer itself.
