Written by: imToken A Question No One Has Asked Yet The crypto industry is obsessed with public chains, tokens, and DeFi protocols. But a more fundamental transformation is approaching: Autonomous AI Agents are becoming participants in economic activities. Today, Agents can book flights, write code, trade assets, and manage projects. Tomorrow, they will hire each other, negotiate terms, and build reputations—all without human intervention. When that day arrives, the entire economic infrastructure will need to be rethought. Starting with wallets. 01 What Are Agents Truly Exchanging? Beyond Fiat, Beyond Stablecoins The intuitive answer is stablecoins—programmable, low-cost, instant settlement. But stablecoins are essentially digital wrappers of fiat currency, inheriting all the constraints of the physical world: centralized issuers, regulatory boundaries, and the implicit assumption that “end users are humans.”
