The use of AI agents in the crypto industry is gaining popularity. AI agent sentiment is at an all-time high, and they have been integrated into various sectors such as memecoins, social media influencers, venture funds, launchpads, and trading. The recent ETHGlobal hackathon saw a dominance of AI agents, with many teams using them in their projects. The integration of AI agents into crypto use cases has been made easier by tools like Coinbase Developer Platform's AgentKit SDK. Well-funded teams are expected to achieve even more in this space. The blend of AI agents with the permissionless ethic of crypto building blocks was observed at the hackathon. The competitive nature of the crypto industry and the pace of innovation are driving the hype around the potential of AI agents to reshape the blockchain economy. Additionally, AI agents are just one of many use cases applied to crypto, including data training, zero-knowledge machine learning, and decentralized compute.
