Show HN: Get an Ethereum wallet for your agent with one API call, no OAuth(aethergent.com)

Doesn’t this mean you have access to all the private keys and can take all the crypto from the wallets? Even if you of course pinky swear you would never take it.

  Good question. The server sees the key at generation. It's not stored. The wallet is a normal Ethereum wallet, and this design is what lets agents provision one from a Python sandbox, an MCP tool, or any pure-HTTP environment where running Node or installing crypto libs isn't an option. Compared to embedded-wallet services like Privy or Magic — which see the key, store it persistently, and bind it to your OAuth identity — Aethergent never ties the wallet to who you are. It generates it, sends it to you, then immediately discards it. TEE generation with attestation is on the roadmap.

    But that isn’t verifiable right? It is only what you claim. It requires that people believe you have no intention to ever take the money that you could take.

Hi, I'm Eoin. I kept hitting the same problem when building and testing tooling for AI agents: they need a wallet to pay for things (x402, MPP, etc.), but every existing option assumes you can run Node or install crypto libraries. That doesn't work from a Python sandbox, a curl-only environment, or inside an MCP tool. It's a 10-minute detour that breaks the agent's flow.
So I built Aethergent. POST to the API, get back an Ethereum-compatible wallet — address, private key, funding instructions. No account, no API keys, no signup. One HTTP call.
It's deliberately simple. No private keys stored, no auth, just math over HTTPS.
Works from anywhere that can make an HTTP call — including environments where shelling to a Node CLI isn't an option. There's also an MCP endpoint at /mcp for agents that prefer to discover tools that way.
Appreciate any feedback.
