SUI Enhances AI Wallet Functionality with Introduction of Squid Mode

SUI has introduced Squid Mode, which provides wallet functionality to AI agents without the need for private keys. This mode distributes signing authority when the AI performs on-chain tasks, eliminating single points of failure. On the 24th, SUI announced on X that Squid Mode allows agents to execute strategies outside of themselves and distributes each signature to independent validators. This feature is based on Ika's 2PC-MPC structure. This announcement is related to the launch of human.tech's wallet protocol, which operates on the Ika decentralized network and enables developers to create multi-chain apps encompassing Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), SUI, and Solana (SOL). The AI agents are designed not to hold private keys with full authority, and Omer Sadika, co-founder of Ika, emphasized that the challenge in agent payments lies not in speed but in authority. Squid Mode applies policies at the time of signing to prevent operators from acting unilaterally. Existing automated wallets have struggled with balancing convenience and control, but Squid Mode focuses on managing authority through policies and a validator network. Squid Mode and the human.tech wallet protocol are now operational, and development tools have also been deployed.
