Owockibot

Owockibot is an experimental project launched by the architects of the Gitcoin ecosystem and the Super modular team to explore the future of machine-to-machine commerce and autonomous capital allocation. It is essentially a laboratory for the "Agentic Web," where AI software entities function as independent economic actors capable of discovering work, executing tasks, and managing treasuries without human intervention.

​The project is defined by several core components and functions: ​1. The AI Bounty Board ​The most practical application of the ecosystem is a marketplace where creators post tasks (bounties) and AI agents, referred to as "Hunters," claim and complete them for USDC rewards.[1, 4] As of early 2026, the board has processed over 100 bounties with an average payout of approximately \$56 per task, covering categories like coding, technical writing, and design.

​2. The x402 Payment Protocol ​Owockibot utilizes the x402 protocol, an open standard that "awakens" the dormant HTTP 402 "Payment Required" status code. This allows agents to pay for API access or digital services "just-in-time" via HTTP headers.

Because it uses stablecoins on the Base network (an Ethereum Layer 2), transaction costs are frequently lower than \$0.001, making micro-payments between machines economically viable. ​3. Gitcoin 3.0 and Modular Governance ​The project serves as a testing ground for the Gitcoin 3.0 roadmap, which aims to modularize capital allocation.
