Ep 37 — How AI Agents Will Reshape DeFi & Crypto Infrastructure with Ejaaz Ahamadeen

The DCo Podcast

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Agents are the Interface: Expect autonomous agents, not traditional apps, to become the dominant way users interact with both AI and crypto, abstracting away underlying complexity.
  2. Money Talks: The most successful near-term crypto AI agents will likely focus relentlessly on generating financial returns for users, tapping into crypto's core speculative drive via sophisticated, proprietary trading strategies.
  3. Build Real Products: Sustainable value comes from solving user problems with excellent UX and viable business models (potentially subscription-based initially), not just tokenomics. AI necessitates a shift from infrastructure hype to product-led growth.

Ben Fielding: Gensyn’s Fueling an AI-Native Internet, Open vs. Closed Source AI and RL Swarm

Delphi Digital

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. AI scaling hits physical limits: Centralized hyperscalers face diminishing returns; the future needs horizontally scalable, decentralized compute enabled by protocols like Gensyn.
  2. The Internet gets personal (and probabilistic): Expect a shift from static databases to dynamic, parameter-based experiences, requiring ubiquitous, verified ML execution.
  3. Open beats closed (eventually): Open-source models and decentralized learning (like RL Swarm) will likely outpace closed systems by leveraging global compute and diverse data, mitigating centralized bias risks.

The Agent Network — Dharmesh Shah, Agent.ai + CTO of HubSpot

Latent Space

AI

Key Takeaways:


1. Agents Evolve into Teammates: Shift perspective from agents as mere tools to digital collaborators within hybrid teams, requiring platforms like Agent.ai for discovery and interaction.


2. Engineer Pragmatically, Vibe Code: Lean towards under-engineering; AI reduces refactoring costs, making it cheaper to pay down tech debt later than to over-invest in unused abstractions now.


3. Unlock Networks with Standards & Memory: Prioritize building blocks like the mCP standard and tackle the critical challenge of secure, shared, cross-agent memory to enable true agent collaboration.

The Last Companies That Will Ever Exist

Bankless

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The global economy is transitioning from a "bits" era of digital innovation to an "atoms" era, driven by AI and robotics, where control over physical resources and their efficient deployment becomes the ultimate competitive advantage.
  2. Prioritize investments in companies demonstrating vertical integration across intelligence, energy, and labor, especially those building physical infrastructure and manufacturing capabilities at scale.
  3. The race to acquire the "Infinity Gauntlet" of capitalism is on. Companies that achieve self-sufficiency in intelligence, energy, and labor will redefine economic power, making traditional capital almost irrelevant and creating a new class of unassailable monopolies.

Logan Jastremski: Solana vs Hyperliquid - Who Wins The Global Exchange Race?

Delphi Digital

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The global financial system demands 24/7, credibly neutral price discovery. This pushes blockchain architecture beyond raw throughput to geographically optimized, low-latency transaction inclusion, creating a truly global market.
  2. Invest in infrastructure and applications on chains pursuing multi-leader consensus and proprietary AMMs. These designs offer superior price discovery and execution for the next generation of global trading.
  3. The global exchange race is an engineering marathon, not a sprint. While Hyperliquid excels regionally, Solana's architectural bet on physics-defying global fairness aims to become the world's true price oracle, unlocking trillions in new trading volume.

How to Fix Tokenized Securities with Olivia Olivia Vande Woude from Ava Labs

The Rollup

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. Trust is moving from opaque balance sheets to verifiable, cryptographically enforced infrastructure. This means financial protocols, not just institutions, will increasingly dictate settlement, custody, and compliance.
  2. Prioritize tokenized assets and investment vehicles that offer direct legal claims and verifiable on-chain mechanics. For builders, focus on creating infrastructure that eliminates intermediaries and provides transparent, programmable utility, like vaults.
  3. The future of finance is about verifiable infrastructure and programmable ownership. Understanding the nuances of tokenized security structures and the rise of on-chain vaults will be critical for investors and builders navigating the convergence of traditional finance and DeFi over the next 6-12 months.

Crypto is so Cooked.

Taiki Maeda

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: Institutional capital flow dictates market cycles; the current downturn purges weak projects, paving the way for a value-driven recovery.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Identify projects with genuine value accrual, strong fundamentals, and potential for buybacks, preparing to dollar-cost average into these "Carvana" plays.
  3. The Bottom Line: The current "gross" feeling is a signal to strategically deploy capital into long-term, high-conviction assets, rather than short-term trading.

Looking for Gains Right Now? Crypto Isn’t the Trade — This Is: Bits + Bips

Unchained

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. Capital is migrating from speculative, long-tail crypto assets to tokenized real-world assets and sophisticated derivatives. This reflects a broader market demand for yield, hedging, and perceived stability.
  2. Explore tokenized commodities (gold, silver) and equity perpetuals for new leverage and yield opportunities. Exercise extreme caution with prediction markets and weekend tokenized equity trading due to information asymmetry and manipulation risks.
  3. The crypto market is maturing beyond pure digital assets, integrating with traditional finance through tokenization and derivatives. Position your portfolio to capture value from this convergence, prioritizing robust liquidity and verifiable information over pure speculation.
