Data covers ERC-8004 agent registrations and Agent Trust Score assessments. Week 31 = week ending Sunday, August 2, 2026.
Week 31 looked stable at first glance – 21,378 new agents registered, only 7.0% below Week 30’s 22,989. But the number of unique owner wallets behind those registrations collapsed, down 58.7% to just 8,413. The gap between those two numbers tells the real story: registrations concentrated sharply into fewer hands this week. Median trust score also fell further, down 33.1% to 200 – the floor of the Elevated Risk tier, and a value historically associated with farm-flagged registration batches.
Week 31 Key Numbers
Week 31 Analysis
Registrations Held Steady – But Unique Owners Collapsed
Taken on its own, a 7.0% drop in registrations would read as an unremarkable, quiet week. It is the unique owner count that changes the picture entirely: only 8,413 distinct wallets registered agents in Week 31, down from 20,355 in Week 30 – a 58.7% collapse. Registrations fell only slightly while the number of participants fell by more than half, which can only mean one thing: the wallets that did register this week each registered far more agents, on average, than in the prior week.
Agents Per Owner More Than Doubles
Dividing registrations by unique owners gives a rough measure of how concentrated a week’s activity is. In Week 30, that ratio was about 1.13 agents per owner – consistent with most owners registering a single agent, broad-based growth. In Week 31, the same ratio jumped to about 2.54 agents per owner – more than double. This is a marked shift from the pattern described in last week’s tracker, where owner growth closely tracked registration growth. This week, a smaller set of wallets accounts for a similar volume of registrations, which is the signature of batch or fleet-style registration activity rather than broad, independent participation.
Median Trust Hits the Tier Floor
Median trust score fell again, down 33.1% to exactly 200 – the lowest boundary of the Elevated Risk tier, one step above Untrusted. This is not a new value in the tracker’s history: several earlier weeks – W07, W09, W13, W21, and W22 – also recorded a median of exactly 200, and those weeks were consistent with cohorts dominated by low-history or farm-flagged registrations rather than organically diverse agent deployments. Combined with this week’s collapse in unique owners, Week 31 fits that same pattern: a smaller number of wallets registering agents in bulk, with a trust profile that reflects it.
Three Weeks, Three Different Stories
The past three weeks illustrate how differently a similar registration number can behave under the surface. Week 29 saw registrations fall sharply alongside owners, in step with each other. Week 30 saw registrations more than double alongside a nearly equal rise in unique owners – broad-based growth with declining trust. Week 31 saw registrations hold roughly steady while unique owners collapsed – concentrated growth with trust at the tier floor. The registration count alone would not have distinguished any of these three weeks from one another; the unique owner metric is what reveals the difference.

Note: Median trust score reflects the median Agent Trust Score of agents registered in that specific week, not the cumulative population median. Unique owner wallets counts distinct wallets that registered at least one agent that week; agents per owner is registrations divided by unique owners for that week.
About This Tracker
ChainAware.ai’s weekly ERC-8004 agent tracker monitors new agent registrations on the ERC-8004 Identity Registry, the number of unique owner wallets behind those registrations, and the median Agent Trust Score of each week’s registration cohort. Agent Trust Score is a 0-1000 score combining owner wallet fraud probability, feeder address analysis, farm detection, and criminal record checks – see the full Agent Trust Score methodology for how the model scores agents and their controlling wallets. Data is updated weekly alongside ChainAware’s PancakeSwap/Uniswap rug pull tracker.
