What is Human Wallet Intermediation?
Traditional approach where AI agents cannot directly access financial systems and must route transactions through human-controlled wallets due to KYC/AML requirements incompatible with machine identities.
✅ What Human Wallet Intermediation does well
- • Compliant with traditional finance KYC
- • Human oversight and control
- • Familiar regulatory framework
❌ Limitations for Agents
- • Introduces latency and friction
- • Requires human intermediation
- • Limits agent autonomy
- • Creates bottleneck for agent operations
Why AI Agents are replacing Human Wallet Intermediation
AI agents requiring autonomous financial capability must use self-custody via crypto/blockchain since traditional finance KYC is incompatible with machine identities
