About Event Build Tomorrow's On-Chain Agent Economy We believe that the future will be agentic, with the size of the agentic economy to be in the trillions of USD in the coming years. This will change the way how we interact, shop, communicate and live our lives.
LLM's have gone a long way, agents gave them tools to interact with the world and web3 will provide the final tool that every economic actor needs - money.
Will the future agents look like Jarvis or like Jetsons? Will they be obedient helpers or independent actors with a mind of their own? This is for you and your fellow builders to decide - the future is being build now.
