human.tech Launches Wallet Protocol on Ika Network for Decentralized Apps and AI agents (24 Aug)

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, August 24th, 2026, Chainwire The human.tech Wallet Protocol is live today on the Ika decentralized network. This extension lets developers build multi-chain apps across EVM, Sui, and Solana, with additional chains to be added. CEO of the parent company, Holonym Foundation, Dr. Shady El Damaty 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.” The new human.tech Wallet Protocol expansion marks a major milestone in commercial applied cryptography. It is the first commercial application of 2PC-MPC threshold signing between two parties, where one 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 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. The WaaP CLI gives agents instant orchestration across EVM, Sui, and Solana. App developers can utilize 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, devs and their users can transact on any chain without the native fee token using the WaaP SDK fee credits & gas sponsorship system. The human.tech Wallet Protocol leverages Ika to address the core challenge with letting software have custody over important data. The rapid adoption of AI automation has reinforced the need for safeguards and the human.tech Wallet Protocol is one of the first commercial solutions with a mature security posture that includes 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 hefty fees for monthly active users or transaction volume, stifling margins and product growth for developers. These service providers now need to make a strong case 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 from existing service providers.
