Tesla launching Robo-taxis over the weekend gonna have a profound impact on society over the coming years.
Autonomous driving has officially kickstarted the robotics narrative.
There are around 2 billion jobs in the world that involves driving.
Which is no small amount.
But with AI, it also decreases cost of living…. Uber costs $25 a ride versus Tesla $4.20 a ride.
It also provides a new source of income for all Tesla drivers.
There will always be trade-offs with technology.
Jobs will get displaced but new jobs and revenue will be created.
AI Agents + robotics gonna be the next major areas in AI after Chatbots.
The reason why $CODEC @Codecopenflow is such an exciting top tier crypto x AI project is because both desktop agents and robotic AI will be able to use Codec’s infrastructure to sets up these operators and run vision language action models to take AI to new heights.
$Codec is finally building the infrastructure along with Fabric to solve big problems that currently exist in AI which is cost savings on cloud providers and giving AI the ability to control the machine stack that will unlock Agents and robotics to do more complex tasks not possible before.

With Crypto x AI, we were promised autonomous AI Agents using crypto’s financial service rails to provider better UX and products to users.
The crypto x AI bubble popped after Q4 2024, and we still haven’t seen many breakthrough AI projects hit the masses.
This is still the biggest opportunity in crypto. Crypto’s financial rails will integrate with AI Agents. It’s not a matter of it but when.
AI Agents will not use the traditional financial system to send and transact money. They will use a digital native currency (crypto) to transact autonomously.
We need more teams like $Nuit @nottecore and $Codec @Codecopenflow building strong AI Infrastructure for the next wave of AI Agents and robotics.
The AI sector thinks crypto is a joke because blockchain hasn’t solved anything useful in the real world.
They not wrong!
But it also means less competition in the crypto x AI space.
AI teams need to look at first principles and understand why crypto’s rails can benefit AI.
AI devs: Please don’t be afraid to push innovation and build something new.
It’s way better than building out another copy cat.
Not only it’s more rewarding financially but the market is maturing enough that fundamentals and revenue ACTUALLY MATTERS!
Most of the new accepted YC companies are doing something with AI and AI Agents.
We seeing more startups than ever because AI is the ultimate tool for founders to build great companies.
It begs to question where does crypto fits in this equation?
There weren’t many crypto x AI startups that got accepted until this new batch of YC Startups
In order for crypto x AI to actually materialize, founders need to build better AI applications using crypto networks.
Some key advantages for crypto x AI companies:
➡️Open Source ➡️Crypto payments for AI due its digital native nature ➡️Token rewards to incentivize behavior for users and/or AI ➡️Greater Digital Ownership of the AI ➡️Crypto networks offers better UX/UI for AI Agents to do tasks online
Crypto x AI holds so much promise but we as an industry need to start building better AI Applications with some of these crypto advantages so we stop looking like a joke outside of our crypto bubble.
I see a few crypto x AI projects that’s pushing the boundary of our crypto bubble and gaining web2 customers and/or building new, innovative products.
But we need more founders willing to take tasks and push the boundary of what’s possible in the crypto x AI market
Personal update: Been taking a break from crypto (been grinding since 2017) and I’ve never really taken a break.
The last few months have been extremely difficult for me.
It’s been a lot of ups and downs and it’s been disappointing to see crypto utility plays underperforming.
This asset class is still the best asset class in the world in terms of retail participation and the ability to invest in startups with instant liquidity.
The problem is the structure is broken and this space is filled with scams, vapor, and memes.
I was one of the early investors of $Luna and even though it collapsed, at least push at forefront of innovation.
Payments, savings, and investments were all revolutionized by $Luna.
We have an incentive problem in crypto.
There just aren’t many great entrepreneurs willing to put in the work to push crypto innovation to the masses.
And VC’s are investing at crazy valuations in crypto startups that don’t support retail participation.
Thats why memecoins became so popular because VC’s pushed retail to invest in memecoins instead of their low float, high FDV shitcoin.
Not too mention, crypto startups gets too high of valuation in too short of a time which gives founders no incentive to push innovation since they already became millionaires once token gets listed on exchanges.
I still believe in this space and I see hard working teams in the crypto x AI space pushing for adoption.
Right now, I’m focused on my mental and physical health and not eager to invest in new projects until we see a new narrative or more innovation.
Right now, im hoping the market is cleansing the filth in this industry.
Crypto projects needs to start generating revenue and pass that revenue to token holders in order to survive this cleanse.
Thank you for all the support for the last 4 years!
Crypto is still undergoing growing pains.
But the #1 rule in crypto is to survive.
Take healthy breaks if you need to, don’t lose all your money, invest in real estate.
