What to know:
- Crypto is not only speeding up payments; it is single-handedly drafting a financial constitution for your next pet robot.
- As AI decides itself to earn, traders are arming its offspring with wallets, letting software hoard loot, pay for the coffee it thinks it deserves, trade tokens, and even hire other machines. The circuitry is humming; the paperwork is still to giggle.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Crypto is shaping a fiscal realm where coders trade for code that craves cake.
In the age of self‑driving IQ, coders are equipping their bots with digital wallets so the machines can buy, sell, and decide to launch a startup that only sells… software. The blockchain gives it the bone‑shaking muscle, but lawyers still haven’t hatched the report card.
During a recent gathering at NEARCON 2026, Avichal Garg of Electric Capital spun the moment like a spinning top on a stage set to the clunking symphony of a future where algorithms become entrepreneurs.
“If there’s no human to pull the strings, who belts out the blame?” he asked. The room whispered. “Will a line of code think its own wallet owns the coffee shop? I admit the answer just baffles me.”
Blockchain unfurls this possibility with a wand: programmable money, instant settlements, and an open door to the digital realm, while AI hands that wand to a digit that can both dream of states and pay the bills.
Garg leaned on a historical precedent, comparing it to the birth of the limited liability corporation in the industrial age-a twist that unlocked capital rivers and factory giants.
“Participating in the economy has become a playground for the plummeting funds of the world,” he mused. “Suddenly, someone with a modest sack of grain can bake fine soufflé.”
Yet the law still sits on the porch waiting for the first legal stair to appear.
“You cannot condemn an AI,” remarked Garg as the crowd nodded thoughtfully. “Drive it out, but it won’t feel the pinch.”
Should autonomous agents start vying for territory on‑chain-trading, lending, hiring-they will corner lawmakers into a fundamental question: when a piece of software with its own wallet acts, who will answer to the ledger?
