Sunrise Lists Billions Network on Solana, Bringing Native ZK Identity to the Agent Economy
The ZK identity network that lets users prove they're real without an iris scan, a central database, or any biometric data is now natively tradable on Solana. Sunrise has listed BILL, the native token of Billions Network, establishing a canonical Solana market for the identity infrastructure that powers proof-of-personhood and Know-Your-Agent (KYA) verification across 9,000+ projects. Billions Network, built on the ZK stack originally developed at Polygon Labs as Privado ID, now has a native Solana presence across major DEXs, wallets, and aggregators for the first time.
ZK Credentials Without Biometrics or a Central Database
Proof-of-personhood is a solved problem for those willing to collect iris scans; Worldcoin built its proof-of-humanity system around an orb that photographs users' eyes, storing biometric data in a centralized repository to establish uniqueness. Billions Network takes the opposite approach with zero-knowledge proofs generated locally on any device and no physical hardware, biometric collection, or central store of identity data. Users prove they are real, unique, KYC'd, of age, or eligible in a given region without exposing the underlying data. A verifiable credential is generated locally; only the ZK proof leaves the device.
The ZK stack underlying BILL was developed over years as Polygon ID, then Privado ID (a Polygon Labs spinout) before rebranding as Billions Network in 2025. It powers enterprise deployments at HSBC, Deutsche Bank, Telefonica Tech, and India's Aadhaar identity program. Notably, Worldcoin itself integrates the underlying ZK stack. In 2025, Deloitte named the Billions tech stack a recommended KYC/AML primitive for tokenized finance in its market report on the $4 trillion tokenized asset opportunity.
Addressing Solana's Agent Economy Bot Problem with Infrastructure
On Solana, AI agents already execute DeFi strategies, claim airdrops, and interact with protocol contracts autonomously — but with no native way for those protocols to know whether they're dealing with a verified human, a credentialed agent, or a bot. BILL's listing through Sunrise changes that: for the first time, Solana developers building for the agent economy have a canonical, natively tradable identity primitive to build against.
Billions' KYA Protocol issues verifiable credentials to AI agents, letting applications distinguish human-controlled agents from unauthorized ones and tie agent actions back to credentialed human principals. The Human Leaderboard, launched in May 2026, extends this further: it links verified human decisions directly to AI agent execution, creating an auditable accountability layer for onchain agents. Billions serves as the official identity and reputation layer for Sentient, one of the most active AI networks in the space, and recently launched a Verified Agent Identity skill for the OpenClaw platform.
BILL launched in May 2026 with listings on Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, and Bybit, backed by $30 million from Polychain Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Polygon Ventures, BITKRAFT Ventures, and Liberty City Ventures. Through Sunrise, BILL is now natively tradable on Solana for the first time, accessible across Jupiter, Phantom, Solflare, Mayan, Titan, DFlow, Archer Exchange, and other major Solana wallets, DEXs, and aggregators without wrapping or fragmented liquidity.
