Open: public page gives enough substance to understand the site $Paid: pricing, booking, ecommerce, subscription, or paid access is visible ADAds: visible ad load or ad-supported content Pretty: notable design, copy, craft, or presentation Pro: polished, finished-feeling, serious, or operationally mature Niche: specific audience, workflow, or unusually focused use case Human: personal, local, community, civic, handmade, or real-person signal !Suspicious: scammy, spammy, trust theater, finance fog, or credibility concern

An open protocol for binding AI-agent identity to signing keys, append-only history, and tamper-evident memory.

Why it surfaced

1F916 turns an agent’s actions and sealed memories into records that can be checked offline, with five-minute witness countersignatures and no tokens, gas, or per-record fees. The site provides curl-based adoption steps and a three-command verification walkthrough, making the protocol unusually concrete rather than merely aspirational.

Ice Does Not Count

August 12’s newborn domains include a rule-bound archive of enormous sodas, 27 family stories cut from one afternoon, a disaster-supply map with a 24-hour freshness rule, and an ocean bell that rings only when six conditions agree.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-12 Domain Arrivals issue.
