Enabling the verifiably fair, decentralized commercial exchange of any asset or service between any agent, human or AI
We’re thrilled to unveil the Boson Decentralized Agentic Commerce Metasystem (DACM) whitepaper—a culmination of years building decentralized commerce infrastructure, now evolved to meet the demands of the emerging agentic economy.
The whitepaper is now available on our new Boson Metasystem website and via direct download.
An Age of Abundance—For All Who Can Obtain a Fair Share
The industrial revolution replaced manual labor with machines, unleashing two centuries of exponential economic growth. This transformation created unprecedented wealth while fundamentally reshaping society.
Today, we stand on the cusp of a new revolution—one where machines, in the form of AI and autonomous agents, are replacing human cognitive labor. This shift to an agentic economy represents a transformation more profound than industrialization itself.
The shift to an agentic economy promises an age of abundance, for all who can obtain a fair share.
Boson’s Expansion: From Protocol to Metasystem
Boson Protocol’s original vision was to be the world’s open, public infrastructure layer for commercial transactions—free from the excessive extraction of Web2 e-commerce monopolies.
A system which anyone can use and everyone can trust; and where everyone shares in the value they create.
As the agentic economy has emerged, Boson’s scope has evolved from a protocol into a comprehensive metasystem. What began as infrastructure for tokenizing physical goods has expanded into the foundational layer for all commerce in the agent era.
DACM: The commerce layer for the agent stack
The Boson Decentralized Agentic Commerce Metasystem (DACM) enables the verifiably fair, decentralized commercial exchange of any asset or service between any agent, human or AI.
DACM serves as the commerce layer of the agent stack—think of it as Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Commerce. Just as MCP enables agents to connect to tools and data, and A2A facilitates agent communication, DACM provides the missing piece: verifiable commercial exchange.
Our dual protocol architecture addresses the full spectrum of commerce:
- Boson Protocol: Efficiency Optimized For Everyday Commerce
Boson Protocol locks-up funds in smart contracts for a defined term, using an efficient optimistic assumption of transaction success unless explicitly disputed. Disputes are mutually resolved, with exceptional cases escalated to external resolvers.
- Fermion Protocol: Security Optimized For High-Value Commerce
Fermion Protocol locks-up assets through trusted verifiers and custodians, enhancing security to facilitate immediate seller payments for improved capital efficiency, and enabling secure fractionalization of tokenized assets.
Eight foundational principles ensure that DACM remains an immutably open and verifiably fair commerce infrastructure:
- Trust-minimized
- Immutably open
- Verifiably fair exchange
- General-purpose
- Minimally extractive
- Credibly neutral
- Composable
- Progressively decentralized
The Fork Ahead: Open Agentic Commerce vs. Closed, Extractive Platforms
The digital economy faces a new wave of extraction. We see dual threats: centralized tokenization infrastructures maintaining custodial control, and pseudo-decentralized commerce protocols replicating Web2 rent-seeking behaviors.
As Erik Voorhees warns: “We have become farm animals; we graze and produce wealth that our digital landlords harvest.”
The simultaneous maturation of blockchain infrastructure and large-scale artificial intelligence presents society with a fork in the path of economic evolution. One trajectory leads toward closed, extractive platforms that re-centralize power; the other realizes an open, credibly neutral system where every agent—human or machine—can engage in commerce on fair and transparent terms.
DACM represents our commitment to the open path—ensuring the wealth of the agentic era is shared by the many, not captured by the few.
Join the Agentic Commerce Revolution
This whitepaper details how DACM combines crypto’s deterministic execution with AI’s adaptive intelligence, creating The Crypto x AI x RWA Incentive Machine. Through $BOSON and $FMION tokens, we’re building a self-reinforcing flywheel that connects fragmented markets into a unified digital economy.

Together, we can build public commerce infrastructure for the agentic economy—ensuring this new age of abundance benefits humanity, not digital landlords.
The revolution needs builders. The revolution needs you. This is the way.
