AmericanFortress and 0G launch the first AI-native private and compliant transaction stack
Wyoming, US, January 26th, 2026, Chainwire
AmericanFortress and 0G today announced a launch of what both teams describe as the missing half of the AI agent economy, providing a private identity layer that agents can trust.
As AI agents begin executing blockchain transactions, managing treasuries, and interacting with DeFi protocols, two problems have become impossible to ignore: agents still rely on raw wallet addresses, an infrastructure designed for humans, not autonomous systems and almost none of the existing infrastructure is private.
This gap has already created rising security risks, from phishing vulnerabilities, goal hijacking and objective manipulation to agents being tricked into sending assets to incorrect addresses through context attacks. Phishing losses hit $3.8B in 2024 according to Chainalysis, and address-level attacks like poisoning and transaction hijacking grew over 60% year-over-year.
The partnership solves this from first principles, with 0G providing the compute layer for autonomous agents and AmericanFortress a patented dynamic stealth-address computation and full confidentiality system that allows both humans and AI agents to transact by referencing a name, not an exposed on-chain address.
Each transaction generates a cryptographic one-time address that only the sender and recipient can compute, eliminating address poisoning, clipboard hijacks, explorer spoofing, IP–balance correlations, and static address exposure. The result is true sender-receiver unlinkability to third-party observers, while still enabling cryptographic proofs and decentralized identity (DID) between counterparties, creating a form of decentralized KYC visible only to the parties involved in the transaction.
AmericanFortress will also release a user-selectable “Hide My Balance” capability for both users and AI agents, debuting on 0G. It brings the privacy of a fully zero-knowledge chain directly to the 0G mainnet, without requiring any mixing of funds. Balances remain completely confidential, while cryptographic KYC proofs between sender and receiver are preserved.
Unlike mixers or privacy tokens that obscure funds at the protocol level, AmericanFortress is designed for regulatory compatibility from day one. Transactions remain verifiable, compliance proofs can be selectively disclosed, and users retain privacy without entering legal gray zones or triggering red flags for institutions, auditors, or regulators.
The infrastructure is built to scale to billions of machine-generated transactions without ever leaking metadata.
“AI agents are about to outnumber human traders. But the infrastructure they transact through hasn’t changed in 10 years,” said Mehow Pospieszalski, CEO of AmericanFortress. “0G gives agents intelligence, we give them protection. Raw addressed non private transactions were never designed for automated decision-making. This partnership fixes that.”
“Compute without private transactions is incomplete and AI agents don’t just need intelligence, they need a transaction layer that matches their autonomy,” said Michael Heinrich, CEO of 0G Labs. “By integrating AmericanFortress, 0G becomes the first network where agents can execute value transfer with built-in privacy, compliance, and cryptographic trust without leaking identity or balance data to the world. This is what it means to be truly AI-native infrastructure.”
The partnership comes as institutions, wallets, and L2 ecosystems begin integrating AmericanFortress SDKs for their own agent frameworks.
