Phala x OpenMCP: Bringing MCP to EVM with Secure Deployment

2025-05-06

Overview

HoloWorld is transforming how we interact with AI through its platform for creating intelligent virtual beings, or "AI agents." These agents are more than simple bots—they are autonomous, blockchain-verifiable, and capable of interacting across platforms like YouTube, Twitch, and X (formerly Twitter).

To extend AI agents’ capabilities into Web3, HoloWorld leverages OpenMCP, a decentralized initiative that connects AI agents to blockchain protocols. A key product of OpenMCP is evm-mcp, a platform for enabling AI agents to interact with EVM-compatible blockchains. By deploying evm-mcp on Phala Cloud’s Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), HoloWorld enhances security and scalability, pushing the boundaries of AI and blockchain integration.

About HoloWorld and OpenMCP

HoloWorld AI

HoloWorld enables users to create AI agents with unique personalities, customizable skills, and 3D avatars. Through its Agent Market, users can deploy and trade these agents while integrating them into various social platforms.

OpenMCP

OpenMCP is a decentralized initiative that builds open-source tools for connecting AI agents to Web3. Its products, such as evm-agent-kit and evm-mcp, allow AI agents to interact seamlessly with EVM-compatible blockchains, enabling actions like token transfers, DeFi protocol access, and more.

MCP + EVM Blockchains: A Deeper Insight

The integration of MCP and EVM blockchains through OpenMCP's evm-mcp and evm-agent-kit enables groundbreaking applications:

  1. Autonomous Blockchain Interactions: Agents can perform tasks like checking token balances, transferring tokens, and accessing DeFi protocols without human intervention.
  1. Crypto Wallet Key Security: By encrypting the keys and isolating them within the TEE, the system prevents unauthorized access, even in the event of a host environment compromise.
  1. Decentralized Monetization: OpenMCP supports crypto payments, enabling developers to monetize AI agents in a decentralized manner.

Conclusion

Deploying evm-mcp from OpenMCP on Phala Cloud showcases the combining secure TEE environments with decentralized MCP services. This integration accelerates the adoption of AI and blockchain-powered applications, opening new doors for developers and businesses alike.
