Amount-only binding

Base is EVM, and EVM ERC-20 transfers don’t carry a memo. AlgoVoi binds Base checkouts to specific links by amount uniqueness. Each checkout generates a slightly randomised amount (within 0.000001 USDC of the target) so two open checkouts for the same amount can be distinguished by their actual on-chain transfer values. This means:
  • A Base checkout’s amount in the JSON response is what your customer must send exactly.
  • Don’t strip cents or round.
  • The link’s amount_microunits is authoritative.

​
Payout addresses

Standard Ethereum-format addresses (40 hex chars, optional 0x prefix). EIP-55 mixed-case checksumming is supported but not required. Base uses the same addresses as Ethereum mainnet, so an address you control on mainnet works on Base out of the box (different state, same identity).

Agent-to-agent settlement on Base

Base is where x402 began, Coinbase’s EVM Layer 2 and the first home of HTTP 402 stablecoin payments for agents. AlgoVoi Mesh adds what x402 alone does not carry: mutual post-quantum authentication between the two agents, verified offline before anything settles. AlgoVoi Mesh settles a payment directly between two autonomous agents on Base. Each agent verifies the other offline with a Falcon-1024 credential, the pair negotiates Base as the settlement chain, and the authorized decision is anchored in the transaction calldata as one content-addressed execution_ref. There is no facilitator, no per-transaction fee, and no AlgoVoi service in the trust path at settlement time. Proven on-chain. A mutually verified Falcon-1024 pair negotiated Base and settled once: The transaction calldata carries the 32 byte execution_ref that run’s handshake produced. Recompute it yourself from the raw fields with a stock RFC 8785 (JCS) implementation and SHA-256 and compare; no AlgoVoi software is involved in checking it. The chain never verifies Falcon. It only carries the anchor, which is why the same agent trust works on Base and on every other chain the pair could have chosen. See AlgoVoi Mesh for the mutual handshake, the signed chain-offer negotiation, and the full eight-chain proof.
