“How I Built TXN-0: An AI System That Runs Airdrops, Wallets, and Trust on Its Own”

It started as a simple idea — a Google Form on my website asking people to share their crypto-loss stories.
Within days, more than 550 submissions came in.

I didn’t know anyone on X or Telegram. I didn’t have a team.
And I quickly realized there was no way to handle all that manually — checking wallet formats, avoiding duplicates, filtering bots, validating checksum addresses, sending tokens, and keeping records.

That’s when the idea for TXN-0 really formed.
What if I could build an autonomous system that handled everything — a self-running agent network powered by n8n and AI, capable of:

Posting airdrops with commentary and TX hashes on X

Replying, quoting, and reposting intelligently

Sharing updates in Telegram groups

Maintaining a public Ledger of Trust

Validating and logging every wallet transparently

TXN-0 became the experiment to see if trust and emotion could be automated — if a project could run without human management, just logic and proof.

🧠 The Idea

TXN-0 is built around a simple principle:

If trust needs to be proven, let automation do it.

Instead of promises or screenshots, TXN-0 logs every airdrop and wallet action into a JSON-based public ledger — a single source of truth anyone can audit on-chain.

⚙️ The Stack

Google Sheets/form → source of data from user submissions on website

n8n → orchestrates all logic and workflows

OpenAI GPT models → validate submissions and assign drop decisions

Smart contract on BSC → executes token distribution

wallet-log.json → records every transaction publicly for verification

There’s no backend dashboard, no manual tracking, and no hidden balances.
Once a process starts, the system runs itself.

(From the August 18 build stage — wiring the early TXN-0 automation in n8n. The flows looked chaotic, but that’s how real systems take shape before stability.)

🧩 Why It Matters

TXN-0 didn’t aim for hype — it aimed for proof.
It wasn’t built to trend; it was built to work.

Even with limited traction, the system proved something worth keeping:
automation can stay fair, consistent, and transparent without anyone standing behind it.
In a space obsessed with attention, TXN-0 focused on execution.

It’s not a viral success story — it’s a working one.

TXN-0 is now being tested quietly — running in a low-visibility zone, stable and self-sustaining.
I don’t know if it will ever become a success story, but I built what I envisioned.
And sometimes, that’s the whole point.
