Show HN: Get an Ethereum wallet for your agent with one API call, no OAuth

https://aethergent.com

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.

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.
