As AI agents begin executing transactions as economic actors, crypto infrastructure may be better suited than traditional finance, Alchemy co-founder and CEO Nikhil Viswanathan (니킬 비스와나탄) said. He said modern finance is built around human conditions such as bank hours, national payment boundaries and physical identity. AI agents operate online, globally and without downtime. Viswanathan said crypto can meet needs for borderless microtransactions and code-based control of funds, and proposed a model where agents automate wallet management and transactions.
