I tried it once—asked an AI Agent to handle on-chain interactions for me, setting parameters, the target contract, and a gas budget, thinking it could just run through everything on its own. But halfway there was a signing step, and it popped up a window asking me to confirm. I looked at the address and it was off—it wasn’t the mainstream wallet I had used at the time. It looked like a clone ripped from a phishing simulator. Luckily I took a second look, otherwise that approval would have been sent to someone else.

Now it seems Agents can do a lot—strategy, execution, monitoring—but when it comes to the question of **who has permission to move your money**, there still needs to be human backup. Especially now that hardware wallets are out of stock and phishing links are everywhere—most so-called “automation” just shifts your trust onto a contract you don’t know. In plain terms, people’s little sixth sense and ability to hit the pause button when something feels off is something machines haven’t learned yet.

I don’t know if that’s good or bad. Anyway, my wallet still only trusts my own judgment for now.
