Bringing AI agents onchain with Warden
How Warden uses Privy to deliver social payments and cross-chain capabilities for agentic experiences

The rise of AI agents isn’t just changing how users interact with software. It’s also enabling a new kind of economy.
When built on crypto rails, the possibilities go beyond chat interfaces or recommendations. Agents can execute transactions, manage assets, and interact directly with smart contracts on a user’s behalf. This is only possible because of crypto’s permissionless architecture, where any program or agent can act independently onchain.
Pair that with natural language processing, and much of crypto’s historical complexity begins to fall away. No more switching networks, managing seed phrases, or deciphering signing prompts. Instead, users can describe what they want to do, and delegate the rest.
But delivering these capabilities requires more than just language models. It demands infrastructure built for delegation, programmability, and scale.
As the first crypto super app designed for agents, Warden brings together instant onboarding, social payments, and AI-native integrations in one seamless user experience. In its first month alone, the platform has onboarded over 3 million users across EVM and Solana.
At the core of every agentic interaction is a Privy-embedded wallet, which supports smart accounts and delegated access needed to power the agentic economy.
What is Warden?
Warden is designing an AI-native crypto super app, where users, agents, and applications interact seamlessly across chains and social identities.
At its core, Warden is built to make crypto more usable. It does this by combining embedded wallets, natural language interfaces, and a built-in social layer to abstract away the typical complexity of onchain interactions.
With Warden, users can:
Onboard instantly via email, social login, passkey, or an existing wallet – no seed phrases or extensions required
Delegate actions to AI agents who can help stake, swap, send assets, and more, all through natural language
Research onchain assets and activity using conversational interfaces, enabling agents to assist with due diligence before executing transactions
Send assets to any @handle, even if the recipient hasn’t created a wallet yet, through identity mapping and social payments
Transact across EVM, Solana, and smart accounts, all from a single, consistent experience
By combining agentic workflows with a social-native identity layer, Warden offers a more intuitive entry point into crypto. This is done without compromising the transparency or control users expect from onchain interactions.
How Privy infrastructure powers Warden
Beneath every Warden interaction is a programmable, embedded wallet powered by Privy.
These wallets aren’t just entry points. They are agent-ready accounts that support complex access logic, delegated signatures, and seamless coordination across chains. Whether initiated by a user or an agent, every transaction flows through Privy’s infrastructure.
What makes this possible:
Programmability: Privy wallets support delegation. Users can grant agents permission to transact on their behalf, with fine-grained policy control and enforced guardrails.
Multi-chain by default: Privy supports EVM and Solana smart accounts in one unified experience, allowing Warden to abstract chain-specific logic while maintaining consistent UX.
Scalable, production-grade infra: With battle-tested performance across 75M+ accounts, Privy handles high-throughput transaction volume with low latency and high reliability, even during Warden’s hypergrowth to 3M users in its first month.
“From testnet to production, Privy has been a true partner in helping us scale. Ahead of launch, we worked closely to simulate mainnet flows, stress test security, and validate agent permissions. As usage has grown faster than expected, Privy’s team and infra have been instrumental in helping us adapt and continue delivering a seamless experience.”
— David Pinger, Warden CEO
By combining programmable accounts, cross-chain support, and enterprise-grade infra, Privy enables Warden to move beyond traditional wallet flows and unlock what’s required for an agentic, scalable crypto app.
What’s next for Warden
Warden’s early growth is just the beginning. The team is now focused on scaling performance and expanding the platform’s capabilities across every layer of the stack.
In the short term, this means increasing responsiveness, improving transaction throughput, and enhancing the stability of agent-initiated action under real-world load.
Looking ahead, Warden is rapidly building toward a more intelligent, composable ecosystem:
Warden Studio lets developers build AI-integrated smart contracts using verifiable, plug-and-play agents (AVRs)
The Agent Hub, now live with Uniswap, enables users to swap assets via natural language across EVM chains
Partnerships with Irys and Hyperlane unlock onchain memory and universal cross-chain access for AI agents
Voice commands, gamified UX, and fiat onramps are already in testing to reach a broader user base
As Warden expands its vision of onchain intelligence from asset management to autonomous memory, the demands on infrastructure will only grow.
Privy is proud to be Warden’s trusted wallet and identity partner, powering everything from delegated execution to cross-chain UX and production-grade scale. As we continue building the infrastructure layer for the agentic economy, we’re excited to help unlock what’s next.
