It's so interesting to give money to AI Agent to issue assets! Originally, I thought that AI Agent could combine the verifiable architecture of blockchain to realize autonomous asset management, autonomous intention transactions, and autonomous cross-chain seamless transactions, but it is obviously still far from this vision. However, the emergence of aipool for pre-sale, anti-runaway and anti-MEV is not also an upgrade to the current DeFi experience? Let's not talk about the distant future, but the big benefits that are in sight are worth talking about:
1) The overall engineering implementation of aipool is not complicated. Users send SOL (non-CA address) to the wallet address of AI Agent, which generates a private key in the TEE environment and presets access rights to manage the Pool. When certain conditions are met, AI will automatically create a liquidity pool on the on-chain DEX and distribute tokens to eligible participants, and the collected transaction fees will be gathered in the AI wallet; 2) The whole process is no different from the previously popular KOL Fi, the difference is that this round of FI is driven by AI Agent, AI Agent independently controls the private key address (cannot run away), AI Agent independently creates the transaction pool (sets whitelist, unlocks funds in batches, sets initial price, uses oracle pricing, etc.) to reduce the impact of MEV arbitrage.
How to let AI Agent generate private keys autonomously, AI-Pool uses @PhalaNetwork TEE technology solution, the general process is:
1. Generate private keys in the Secure Enclave, the private keys will not leave the TEE environment, and all signature operations are only completed in the TEE;
2. TEE can define a set of verifiable interactive communication rules, and external remote authentication, transaction verification and real-time status monitoring can be achieved, which is equivalent to using the decentralized consensus of the chain (smart contracts, transparent traceability) to manage and schedule assets in TEE. Phala Contract can run in the TEE environment for offline computing and interact with external chains to achieve multi-chain interoperability;
Although Phala Network's performance in the last wave of AI narratives is not eye-catching, to be honest, in terms of AI Agent connecting to TEE to achieve secure asset custody capabilities, and integrating decentralized chain consensus governance and smart contract scheduling with the AI operating environment, Phala's AI Agent's solution was adopted by ai16z, a huge new commercial IP, and imagination was opened up all of a sudden.
3) AI Agent's inclusion in the "trading features" has always been something that the market expects to happen, but it is rare for AI Agent to automatically execute some pre-programmed logic without making mistakes. It is still early to truly reach the stage of autonomous discovery of trading opportunities, autonomous decision-making, autonomous stop loss and stop profit. This requires a lot of support at the distributed chain consensus level:
For example, can there be a decentralized Oracle to feed prices accurately in real time? Can there be a DA data availability solution adapted to AI Agent? Can there be a decentralized governance verification solution? Can there be a Solver Marketplace that can handle large-scale multi-scenario intention transactions, etc.
Since the workflow of AI Agent cannot avoid calling off-chain API interfaces such as GPT4, this set of chains adapted to AI Agent must solve the off-chain + on-chain integration problem at the same time. This makes sense. The old chain infra also needs to integrate off-chain to find new growth opportunities. The new narrative of AI Agent will accelerate the integration of the on-chain and off-chain worlds.
But, I want to say that AI Agent + Chain is still a starry sea in this wave of AI narrative goals, and the current degree of autonomy of AI Agent is far from reaching it.
However, focusing on the present, AI Agent can only snatch the "asset custody rights" from a large number of habitual offenders who issue fraudulent coins and do Rug Pull evil, which is already a great achievement. So, a PumpFun full of AI Agents will come out? An open source enhanced version of the Virtual open platform is coming? A new DeFi market dedicated to serving AI Agents will also be refreshed at the same time? .....Control your imagination.
In short, let me give you a clue. As for how many new and interesting things will come out of AI Agent+DeFi, AI Agent Money Fi, and AI Agent Fusion Chain, let the next "explosion" of the market prove it.
