Lately, I've been seeing everyone hype up AI Agents automatically handling on-chain tasks, and I feel both excited and anxious... Honestly, yes, they can do things like check market prices, compare quotes, and string together a bunch of operations, but when it comes to "should I sign?" and "what permissions will I grant?" I still have to cover my own ass. Especially with unlimited approve, permits, or handing assets over to a contract—no matter how smart the Agent is, it can't take responsibility for the consequences.



My current habit is: the Agent handles the process, and I take care of the last two steps—reading permissions and verifying the interaction counterpart (address/domain/chain). Plus, I add a small safety net: try a small amount first, don’t authorize everything upfront, so I don’t wake up in the middle of the night checking transaction records.

And now, with modular and DeFi layer storytelling making developers super excited, regular users are totally confused. I’m more worried about those few "cross-chain" steps: where exactly is the money, is the bridge the same one, did the signature change its wrapper... Anyway, I’d rather go slower.

Of course, maybe I’m just too neurotic. What parts would you feel comfortable handing over to an Agent? I’m still debating...
