Tempo CBO @dwr explains why trillions of dollars in stablecoin transactions are a misleading measure of adoption, and why crypto's real revolution is only just beginning: "The expansion of financial services with stablecoins is the trend to watch." "A lot of data with stablecoins tends to focus on these very large numbers, hundreds of billions, trillions of dollars moved on blockchains. There’s a lot of noise in that data. You have a lot of trading that’s happening on chain, but it’s maybe not the most economically productive activity. The real world use cases of stablecoins are just starting." "I’ve been in crypto for a decade. This is actually where crypto is starting to impact regular people’s lives. Can I actually spend it? Can I get my money paid out faster? Can I earn a bit of upside?" "Those are the core things that are gonna scale the impact of crypto that we’ve all been waiting for." @tempo

Tempo CBO @dwr predicts AI agents will soon have their own financial accounts, allowing them to negotiate bills, collect refunds, and manage money on your behalf: "In terms of the actual numbers of agentic transactions, those are still small. That’s across the board, not just stablecoins." "In the last 6 to 8 weeks, we’ve seen a lot of excitement around personal agents. Instinct, Meta’s Muse product, ChatGPT just released Dots. 6 months from now, virtually every consumer platform with some level of scale in AI is going to have some type of personal agent product, and those personal agents are going to be doing transactions for people." "There is a real opportunity for agents with wallets, because agents are not creatures of habit like humans, so they’re able to simultaneously use both cards and stablecoins." "There’s a lot of focus on how can I spend money, but there’s a version of the world where, how can I actually receive money? Receiving a refund, or negotiating your bill down and those funds coming back to a stablecoin wallet that your agent is managing. A lot of these personal agents with wallets are gonna start to resemble proto-financial accounts." @tempo
