What is an AI Agent?

An AI Agent is an intelligent software entity that can perceive its environment, make decisions, and take actions autonomously to achieve specific goals. It uses artificial intelligence techniques and algorithms to interact with the world around it.

Why do AI agents need Crypto?

Authentically independent entities require unrestricted access to financial systems.

Cryptocurrencies provide a decentralized and secure foundation that enhances the autonomy of AI agents.

By removing the reliance on traditional financial intermediaries, these agents can function transparently and efficiently.

Through blockchain technology, they gain access to tools like smart contracts, enabling autonomous execution of tasks, secure microtransactions, and transparent financial interactions.

Additionally, cryptocurrencies facilitate proof of ownership, which is essential for promoting shared ownership and democratizing the deployment and usage of AI agents. This integration empowers agents to interact independently with platforms while maintaining security and transparency.
