Lately, everyone’s been hyping AI Agents that can fully automate on-chain “surfing.” I’m definitely tempted—but the moment it comes to paying real money, someone still has to act as the fallback… For instance, when it comes to authorizations/signatures, cranking permissions too high is basically like handing the key to a stranger; and when it comes to cross-chain and route-swapping back and forth, once slippage shifts, it turns into “Why am I losing again?” Then there’s also the whole question of whether contract addresses are real or those phishing links—no matter how smart the Agent is, it can’t stop humans from doing evil. In plain terms: the machine runs the errands, and I’m responsible for that last “confirm” moment.
Social mining and fan tokens this round also feel pretty similar. The slogan “attention is mining” sounds lively, but attention itself is too fleeting—so in the end, it still comes down to who bears the risk of delivering the goods and running away… I’d rather miss out. I don’t want to turn sleep mining into overtime mining.
Personally, I trust data more. The reason is simple: intuition can get unreliable, but on-chain records won’t pretend to be asleep. That’s it for now—I’m going to catch up on sleep.
