Recently, everyone has been hyping up AI Agents that can fully automate on-chain work.
I'm a bit tempted, but I'm more afraid they'll be "too obedient."
If on-chain interactions are really to be handed over, at least a few steps still need human oversight:
Authorization is the most critical part—don't talk about unlimited permissions, even confirming whether the contract address is a fake site redirect requires manual verification;
Next is slippage and routing—Agents chase the optimal path, but when liquidity is thin, they can easily become targets for MEV extraction;
And then cross-chain/bridges—one accident and you'll realize that "automation" just automatically sends you away...
Honestly, Agents are better suited for monitoring prices, calculating cost lines, and alerting to risks, not for being the final point of confirmation.
Recently, the pressure from staking unlocks and unlock calendars has been repeatedly brought up, causing anxiety about sell-off pressure.
I actually think that during such times, robots shouldn't be allowed to run wild based on preset conditions—it's still necessary to keep an eye on the unlocking transaction structure and who is selling, at least for now.
