SiFi thesis Agents will outnumber humans on the internet. Personal agents like @bot and @muse will run your whole life from one chat. They shop for you, book for you and find new products for you. Agents can't hold a credit card, so they pay onchain. They use x402 to pay, USDC as money, and Base to settle it all. The agents already moving money on Base: ■ @bankrbot builds and executes your onchain trades ■ @virtuals_io gives your AI a wallet to manage money ■ @AskVenice runs private, unrestricted agentic chat ■ @OpenGradient settles private AI inference over x402 ■ @usedotai powers anonymous private inference for agents The next billion internet users are agents, and every one of them needs a wallet.
