Crypto built the financial rails for machine-speed economic actors.
AI built the actors.
The convergence is happening right now. Most organizations have no idea what's about to hit them.

AI agents.
75M+ transactions. 4M+ in volume. EVM chains and Solana.
Native web payments at the protocol layer. No accounts, no API keys.
Just a payment header.
The new stack:
Humans — strategy (our last moat)
Agents — the new workforce
Inference — knowledge on demand
Infra — the picks and shovels
Foundation — chips, models, energy
