Virtuals: AI agents become economic actors

Virtuals Protocol founder Jansen Teng says AI agents are evolving beyond chatbots into autonomous economic actors that earn, spend, and coordinate without constant human oversight.

This shift changes everything for crypto. Agent-to-agent transactions could become a massive new volume driver on-chain. But autonomy brings real risks: mistakes, fraud, and no clear accountability when an AI makes a bad trade or loses funds.

Virtuals is building decentralized infrastructure for this agent economy. Their thesis: closed ecosystems controlled by big tech won't scale. Open, permissionless networks where agents transact freely will win over walled gardens.

The tension is obvious. More autonomy means more risk. Less human oversight means faster execution but higher exposure. The projects that nail this balance will define the next wave of on-chain activity.
