12 months from now, I expect there will be much more clarity about what use cases and platforms for agentic AI have PMF in crypto.

Over this period, I think we’ll see several apps get traction and define the first generation of viable use cases. 

These leading apps will then bootstrap the network effects of agent platforms, influencing which platforms become Schelling points.

The first step in the sequence is building compelling user-facing experiences that leverage agents. Some of the use cases I think most likely to get early traction:

-Token discovery, research, and trading
-Airdrop and yield farming
-Gaming: agents as playable characters and NPCs
-AI companions
-Autonomous content producers

I’m really excited to see the coming wave of innovation across these and other use cases. It should be a  fun time to be a crypto user!

@balajis.eth made this pop culture reference in a random meeting in 2018 and it's been living in my head rent free ever since.

True for building anything, but especially true when building protocols.

this applies to just about everything that is worth doing
