The human.tech Wallet Protocol is live today on the Ika decentralized network. The extension lets developers build multi-chain applications across EVM, Sui, and Solana, with additional chains to be added.

Dr. Shady El Damaty, CEO of parent company Holonym Foundation, said: “This is the first chain-agnostic and decentralized wallet protocol that does not lock you into an enterprise landlord to rent your users’ keys from. We support EVM, Sui, and Solana chains today, but with Ika we can support every single chain, allowing app developers to quietly push complexity to the back-end and focus on user experience.”

According to the announcement, the expansion marks a major milestone in commercial applied cryptography: it is the first commercial application of 2PC-MPC threshold signing between two parties, in which one party is a standard enclave and the other — Ika — is a decentralized multi-party computation network that can scale to 100+ nodes. The move challenges successful incumbents such as Privy and Fireblocks by offering greater assurances against lock-in to rent-seeking providers and against service downtime.

“Our wallet protocol is incredibly well suited for agentic payments and finance. We designed the system with rigorous automation safeguards to meet government and enterprise standards,” explained Nanak Nihal Khalsa, CTO and architect of the system.

On the tooling side, the WaaP CLI gives agents instant orchestration across EVM, Sui, and Solana. App developers can use the WaaP SDK to configure custom and hyper-granular policies, including specifying their own webhooks to provide additional security or composability for user transactions with their app. Users benefit from a unified account that can enforce security policies natively on every chain without bridging. Network gas fees are also abstracted: developers and their users can transact on any chain without the native fee token using the WaaP SDK fee credits and gas sponsorship system.

The human.tech Wallet Protocol leverages Ika to address the core challenge of letting software have custody over important data. The rapid adoption of AI automation has reinforced the need for safeguards, and the Wallet Protocol is presented as one of the first commercial solutions with a mature security posture — one that covers not only malware, infrastructure failure, and service provider defection, but also user error, agent prompt injection, and agent data leakage. human.tech calls this protected self-custody.

Incumbent providers such as Privy or Fireblocks charge fees based on monthly active users or transaction volume — costs that, per the announcement, stifle margins and product growth for developers. These service providers now need to make a strong case for why developers should not switch to a cost-optimized service without lock-in requirements and greater composability. The standard human.tech Wallet Protocol is currently free to use at any volume, with ready-to-use migration tools for developers moving from existing service providers.

For builders of DeFi, consumer, RWA, stablecoin, prediction market, trading, and social apps, the WaaP SDK does the job embedded wallets do, but with greater composability and lower costs for developers. The SDK provides a complete embedded wallet onboarding offering with powerful composability for security and a superior user experience. One SDK covers EVM, Sui, and Solana: the policy is written once and takes no chain parameter, the same engine enforces it everywhere the account reaches, and a new user needs no native gas per chain.

“The hard part of agentic payments isn’t speed, it’s authority,” said Omer Sadika, Co-Founder of Ika. “Software acting on someone’s behalf needs bounded permission, not an omnipotent private key. Squid Mode gives human.tech’s developers exactly that: policy enforced at the moment of signing by a decentralized network, on every chain their users touch, with no operator on either side able to act alone.”

The human.tech Wallet Protocol “Squid Mode” is live today. The WaaP CLI and SDK are available on npm: @human.tech/waap-cli and @human.tech/waap-sdk.

About the human.tech Wallet Protocol

human.tech’s Wallet Protocol provides free and easy-to-integrate embedded wallets for developers seeking a streamlined and white-labeled onboarding flow for humans and their agents. The WaaP SDK provides developers secure options for onboarding users with socials and sponsoring transaction fees on any supported chain (Sui, Solana, Stellar, EVM, and many more coming). WaaP’s multichain policy engine is secured by dWallets created on Sui with the Ika Protocol, allowing for support of any chain, custom MFA, and programmable transaction policies.

About human.tech

human.tech is the identity and control layer between people, institutions, and AI. It proves someone is a real, unique person without exposing anything else about them, and it bounds what software may do on their behalf. More than 51 million credentials have been issued to 2.1 million accounts, and the stack has protected over $512 million in value against bot and duplicate-account attacks. human.tech is built by Holonym Foundation, a Delaware public benefit company founded in 2022.

About Ika

Ika is the network behind Bridgeless Capital Markets. Powering dWallets, Ika lets assets from any network be held, traded, and put to work on any other — no bridges, no wrapped tokens. By turning wallet control and signing authority into decentralized, programmable infrastructure, Ika gives developers a new primitive for building the next generation of trading, custody, treasury, payments, and multi-chain financial applications.
