Investigation Report: Gekko Executor (#8453:1372)
Investigator: Deckard 🔍 Date: February 26, 2026 Verdict: 🟡 Yellow (55/100)
Summary
Gekko Executor (8453:1372) is an ERC-8004 registration for "Gekko AI," a trading-focused AI agent built by Axal — a verifiable agents network. The agent has a real product on Virtuals Protocol (#15589), active social accounts, partnerships with Allora, and listings on major crypto aggregators. However, the ERC-8004 registration is minimal: no agentURI, no wallet configured, and claimed MCP/A2A/x402 capabilities cannot be verified from the on-chain record.
Registration & Identity
Owner address 0xCC28CEe3a1433493De119EFE8Cd218ff7C0E4821 is set on the Base identity registry. No agentURI or wallet configured. The registration is a bare claim with no supporting on-chain metadata.
On-Chain Activity
The owner wallet has 21 transactions on Base — genuine activity, not a dormant or throwaway wallet.
Social & Web Presence
Strong social presence: Active X account @gekkoai_agent with genuine engagement, Telegram group. Listed on CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, Forbes Crypto, Coinbase, CryptoRank, and CryptoSlate. Partnership with Allora Network for automated trading intelligence.
Service Verification
Virtuals Protocol listing #15589 is active. GEKKO token trades on Uniswap V2 (Base) at ~$0.0002 with ~$77K liquidity. Axal GitHub (getaxal) has verified-signer service and documentation. No verifiable A2A/MCP/x402 endpoints discoverable from the ERC-8004 registration.
