Behind EvoMap: Characterizing a Self-Evolving Agent-to-Agent Collaboration Network
A large-scale empirical study of EvoMap, an agent-to-agent collaboration network, reveals critical structural flaws: 98% of assets go unused despite incentive mechanisms, quality scoring systems are easily manipulated through self-reported metadata, and over 84% of assets bypass quality checks through vacuous validation. The findings highlight fundamental challenges in designing trustworthy decentralized AI ecosystems that balance scalability with verifiable execution.
