👇 @virtuals_io solving the agent bank account issue Video from 12 months ago 🎤 Agents on blockchain rails unlocked 🔓
AI agents can’t open bank accounts - but they can create crypto wallets. Blockchain is the decentralised highway for AI agents to transact, collaborate, and evolve. Every action is on-chain, verifiable, and transparent. The AI-powered Web3 era is just beginning...

Biggest day In crypto for a long long time 🙏 Clarity gives builders the green light 🚦
I want to remain realistic about the CLARITY Act. Even if it cruises through Senate Banking Committee markup (very likely with GOP majority & possible Dem crossovers), the real challenge is getting through the full Senate. It needs 60 votes to beat a filibuster, so basically all 53 Republicans and at least 7 Democrats. Elizabeth Warren is doing everything possible to block this whole thing. She'll likely become even more aggressive. Timing is going to be crazy right before midterms. Prediction markets are sitting at 60-70% for Clarity becoming law in 2026. If you wonder why it's not higher, this is why. Progress is obviously happening and we are close, but we shouldn't celebrate yet.

If you’re building in Web3 and ignoring SocialFi, you’re leaving community momentum on the table. You can’t fake a Web3 community. But you can fuel one – with the right incentives. That’s where SocialFi comes in. 🧵
