Lately, I've been hearing everyone talk about AI Agents automatically handling on-chain operations. Honestly, I'm a bit tempted but also a little anxious. Being able to run scripts and sign transactions doesn't mean it's "safe." If something really goes wrong, it still comes down to human oversight: like who to authorize, how much limit to set, whether to test with a small amount first, whether the contract address is actually official... These Agents are good at "completing tasks," but they’re not very good at taking responsibility for the consequences.

Especially now, with phishing links on the rise, dropping a quick "update plugin / claim airdrop" in the group chat results in a bunch of people clicking. Hardware wallets are still out of stock, and it feels like everyone's security awareness has improved but also become more anxious. As for me: Agents can help me with queries, comparisons, and reminders, but before I sign anything, I still need to carefully review the transaction details. If possible, I prefer to do it step-by-step—better to be slow and cautious than to give away all permissions at once. That’s all for now; I’ll probably be even more unable to sleep after seeing a bunch of screenshots of stolen funds tonight.
