According to Cointelegraph, Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley said that the rise of AI agents is similar to the beginning of the corporate era in the 19th century, able to sign contracts, employ people, own assets and exceed human lifespans.
Crypto trader Alex Becker predicts that 2025 will be the “year of the AI agent/AI boom.” AI agents are gaining attention for their ability to build Web3 applications, issue tokens, and interact with people.
Matt Hougan, head of research at Bitwise, said the interaction between AI agents and cryptocurrencies has unlimited potential.
Blockworks researcher Dan Smith said that AI tokens on Virtuals Protocol account for 12% of the Base network DEX trading volume, up 6,851% since January 1.
Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal believes that the current AI agents are different from the AI agents that will appear in the next few years. The current ones are just robots.
