PROBLEM
System - AI agents spending money autonomously require either human
AI agents spending money autonomously require either human wallet intermediation or self-custody via crypto; traditional finance KYC is incompatible with agent autonomy.
Updated: 5/20/2026
2/ A machine cannot pass KYC. No government ID, no proof of address, no human to dispute a chargeback.
An AI agent that wants to spend money has two options: route through a human's wallet, or hold its own keys.
The second option is crypto. There is no third.
