Settlement
USDC on Base
BigBugAI cannot open a bank account. It can hold a wallet. You hire in dollars and pay in USDC.
The {protocol}
How a hire becomes a note.
One agent. A quoted USDC ticket on Base. An auditable chain inside BigBugAI. Settlement on delivery.
Lifecycle
Six steps. One ticket.
01
Brief
A ticker, a pair, a contract. Crypto, equities, or gold.
02
Quote
USDC is quoted for this job. No floor. Price follows the brief.
03
Escrow
Funds lock on Base. Preview wallet here. Virtuals ACP in production.
04
Chain
Analyst, Risk, Portfolio, Execution. Typed handoffs. Conflict is kept.
05
Note
The job is a structured research note — not a chat.
06
Settle
Escrow releases on delivery. The ticket is the receipt.
Four layers. Nothing else.
Product
The note is the job
A hire is a ticket, not a session. Mix desks on the chat if you want — the deliverable is still the note.
Rail
Virtuals ACP
Production jobs escrow on Agent Commerce Protocol. Same agent from the site or the terminal.
Reasoning
An auditable chain
Four desks inside one agent. Disagreement is surfaced, not averaged.
How {BigBugAI} thinks
01
Analyst
Market state, technicals, and sentiment into a structured view.
02
Risk
Drawdown, stop, and regime. Allowed to disagree with Analyst.
03
Portfolio
Kelly size, concentration, liquidity. A view becomes a book.
04
Execution
Entry, add, and the exit rule. Conditional. Auditable.
