AI AGENTS COULD BECOME CRYPTO’S NEXT BIG SECURITY THREAT
AI agents are being integrated into crypto tools like wallets, trading bots, and on-chain assistants, automating complex decisions in real time. Many rely on the emerging Model Context Protocol (MCP), which controls how agents operate. While powerful, this flexibility also opens the door to serious security risks — including data poisoning, command overrides, and malicious plugin attacks. As adoption grows, these AI systems may become a major vulnerability in the crypto space.
