On the NEAR website, it positions itself as infrastructure for “agent economy,” emphasizing cross-chain liquidity, confidential execution and reasoning, as well as users owning their own assets and intelligence.

NEAR co-founder previously said that AI agents could become the primary users of blockchain.

This statement is imaginative—and also a little scary.

If, in the future, the ones using the chain frequently aren’t humans but AI agents, then wallets, exchanges, front ends, payments, and risk control will all be redesigned.

Today we’re still discussing user experience; tomorrow we may be discussing machine experience.

This means many products that look mature today may just be outdated versions designed for human traders.

Encrypted fairy-tale observation:

Next round of on-chain users may not be new humans, but new machines.
