Autonomous agents, powered by artificial intelligence and run on decentralized networks, will strengthen the financial market – contain the playing field, bring in more market transparency and grow the usefulness of crypto.
More than 75% of all transactions in traditional markets are made by algorithms, whereby quantitative trade agencies cashed in for their ability to bring the return above the market averages. However, these insights (and subsequent profit) are still locked and not evenly distributed to all investors. Autonomous agents build on this technology and democratize it through the blockchain. At the moment, these self -executive programs can already communicate with block chains, carry out transactions, manage portfolios and participate in decentralized financial protocols.
Autonomous agents explained
There is currently a lot of talk about agents on the market, but not everything that an autonomous agent is called is really one. A true autonomous agent can work independently with AI without human help. For example, it is not very autonomous if an agent relies on a public API that can be concluded or a credit card is refused for payments. Companies such as Microsoft already use real (non-autonomous) agents to improve their processes in areas such as sales, finances and activities. These agents take over repetitive tasks, which saves companies time and money.
Autonomous agents can democratize access to financial aids and opportunities about blockchain, making the ecosystem more inclusive. With their ability to process enormous amounts of data and act intelligently, these agents can stimulate innovation, improve capital efficiency and unlock new ways for participants to enter into markets. It is as if you give blockchain a brain from a rigid system in something that can learn, adjust and make intelligent choices in real time.
Take up finance
In traditional finances, data flows are stopped and controlled by major players. Access to this data requires money and gaining faster access requires even more money. Even then, investors cannot be 100% sure that others have no preferential access. In Crypto, data is more meritocratically accessible to everyone. People have the same tools to extract data from a blockchain as major players such as BlackRock or Citadel. And through autonomous agents, retail investors can manage intelligent and continuous tasks, such as market monitoring, asset spreading and risk reduction. In decentralized stock markets such as Botega, investors have access to a system where autonomous agents can subscribe to liquidity pools and price sources. These subscriptions essentially inform agents quickly of any changes in volatility. At the moment, agents are already doing more than 70% of all transactions at decentralized trade fairs.
More access and faster insight means greater profit. This will have a huge impact on retail investors, data providers on chains and the usefulness of crypto. In addition to the consumers, who have access to rather outdoor market strategies, data collecters in chains that can deliver data in a trusted and honest way will become essential. This creates an opportunity for companies that build robust infrastructure to support the growing ecosystem of autonomous agents. The availability of autonomous agents will also grow the general user base of Crypto. By eliminating the need for technical expertise or constant supervision, agents will give everyday users the confidence to participate in Defi, which applies a broader crypto adoption and inclusiveness.
Potential risks
There are risks that we should pay attention to – the most striking is their dependence on centralized infrastructure. Many autonomous agents are performed on centralized servers, use Enterprise APIs to gain access to AI models, operate on traditional financial rails and source data from paid providers. Each of these is a potential only point of failure. An agent could lose his possibilities as a result of debt, censorship or infrastructure closures. Another high risk is the lack of transparency about whether these agents are really AI. It is often difficult to say whether a decision, mail or statement comes from a real AI or a human mandment as someone to manipulate stories. Ironically, the challenge, although Captcha’s have long evolved to distinguish people from machines, verifying whether a machine is actually behind a decision.
Decentralized infrastructure offers a solution for these risks by enabling cryptographic verification of AI actions in the chain, guaranteeing transparency and reducing dependence on centralized systems.
Looking at 2025
By the end of 2025, agent interactions will probably surpass human interactions in the financial sector of the blockchain, in particular in Defi. This shift will be powered by the efficiency, speed and scalability of autonomous agents, making them the preferred choice for carrying out transactions, managing portfolios and automating complex strategies.
Autonomous agents represent the following logical step in autonomy, which fundamentally change how we live, work and operate companies. They offer an opportunity to participate in the productivity and innovation that they make possible. Missing this shift would be short -sighted, because the growth potential for those who support the right solutions is enormous. However, we must be careful with excitement. Just like the DOT-COM era, not all autonomous agents will succeed, but those who deliver real value will have enormous potential.
