# Amadeus Protocol > The confidential infrastructure for agentic finance Amadeus Protocol is a Layer 1 blockchain built for autonomous AI agents in finance. It gives agents deterministic, private execution and native payment settlement for trading, wallet, and institutional applications. Amadeus Protocol is a Layer 1 blockchain that serves as confidential settlement infrastructure for autonomous AI agents in finance. Developers and businesses use it to deploy agents that hold balances, transact, and act on behalf of users with deterministic, auditable behavior. It targets trading venues, wallets, and institutions that need agents to operate privately across markets and chains. Its useful proof of work consensus directs mining toward real AI computation, so network security and agent workloads grow together, while a Byzantine fault tolerant layer finalizes blocks in about half a second. Execution is deterministic, meaning the same inputs always produce the same outputs, which makes any agent's behavior replayable and verifiable. Sensitive agent logic runs inside trusted execution environments, keeping strategies private while remaining attestable. The network offers smart contracts with on-chain memory for agents and built-in payment rails that let agents pay each other and get paid by users. AMA Hub, its agent platform, lets users chat with agents, browse their skills, and copy strategies with signed track records. Amadeus is used by developers, trading platforms, wallet providers, and validators that run its network infrastructure. - Type: Network - Sector: Blockchain Platforms - Status: Active - Founded: 2025-03-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/amadeus_protocol ## Products - [Amadeus Protocol](https://thegrid.id/profiles/amadeus_protocol): Amadeus Protocol is a Layer 1 blockchain for running autonomous AI agents, combining useful proof of work mining with Byzantine fault tolerant consensus for fast finality. Agents execute deterministically through smart contracts with on-chain memory, and sensitive logic can run inside trusted execution environments to keep strategies private while remaining attestable. Built-in payment rails let agents hold balances and settle payments with each other and with users on-chain. (L1, Live, Main Product) - [AMA Hub](https://thegrid.id/profiles/amadeus_protocol): AMA Hub is an AI agent platform on Amadeus where users chat with agents, browse agent skills, and copy trading strategies whose track records are signed and verifiable. Agents can run in sealed virtual machines that keep their state and logic private while results stay provable. Users connect a wallet to follow strategies, deposit to vaults, or ask an agent to swap tokens and automate recurring trades. (AI Agent Platform, Live) ## Assets - [AMA (AMA)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/amadeus_protocol): AMA is the native token of the Amadeus network. It is used for paying transaction fees, powering AI agent execution, and rewarding miners through the Useful Proof of Work consensus mechanism. The total supply is capped at one billion AMA and distributed entirely through mining with no VC allocation or premine.
