I love bankr. But I still hold this opinion. My bet on bankr is that it pivots to something very powerful, and this buying stuff through text is just one narrow use case it keeps getting used for.

so with a lot of these "ai agents" we really mean bots on twitter. that's it, that's the unique thing. it's that the realm they exist in is different. i casted about this a while ago but it's a new paradigm that i call "API over Account" since we have LLMs that basically treat natural language as endpoints telegram bots have found their use case and are extremely widely used- unibot during the bear market of all things did 20m+ in revenue. for some reason everyone uses tg bots to buy coins early as well i think everything is still early, and you can think of like infra- you have no clue what will come of building a bot that uses a social feed as an interface, but it's possible now and it wasn't before one obvious element is that the visibility of the bot is massive- twitter/fc goes by a social graph and algorithms boost all accounts, including bots. this isn't a thing in telegram which is a closed loop and cannot perpetually increase engagement. so bankr + any wide-reach game is possible now

another example is warpcast + clanker. the feed and algo serves as a way to rapidly communicate the launch of a new coin, it's easily shareable, everyone on the protocol can see it (and, unfortunately, snipe it too) it then makes its way into group chats within minutes of launch for discussion. the post itself serves as proof of the launch, so it makes it easier for people to move onto deciding whether they'll buy or not i think for bankr you can do a bunch of funny games. an easy example i can think of is "take profit, or double it and pass it to the next person". kind of a stupid game but funny, and impressive if it reaches 100 people or something before someone finally rugs. like a quote cast chain with money attached
