I wanted to expand on what we're building. The AI agent economy isn't some far future thing - it's literally happening rn.
If you've been watching
@virtuals_io,
@ai16zdao,
@aixbt_agent, etc. you know AI agents are already moving hundreds of millions in value.
Every time an AI agent makes a prediction, processes data, or executes a trade, it incurs real compute & data costs. Right now, there's no native way for agents to handle these economics themselves.
This is the critical bottleneck: We can build sophisticated AI agents that analyze markets & make decisions, but they can't manage their own resources.
What we built at Nevermined is the protocol that turns every AI computation into a permissionless transaction. When an agent needs to process data or run inference, it can autonomously price & settle that computation.
This matters because the next wave of AI agents won't just trade tokens - they'll form complex networks & swarms, sharing compute & data. Without proper financial infrastructure, this ecosystem hits a wall.
We’ll be shipping some exciting stuff soon & we’re actively hiring!
If you're building AI agents or just get why this matters, my DMs are open.
