Coinbase Ventures, the investment arm of Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) has unveiled its core thesis on the future convergence of cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence, highlighting the potential for blockchain technology to enhance AI accessibility, transparency and use cases.
What Happened: The report, authored by Jonathan King, outlines a vision where AI agents operating on crypto infrastructure could become significant drivers of economic activity, leading to the rise of an “Agentic Web.”
As King explains, “We predict a future where agents will have their own crypto wallets to autonomously transact and fulfill user intents, access lower-cost, decentralized compute and data resources, or leverage stablecoins to pay humans and other agents to complete tasks necessary for their overall objective function.”
