Here's what's going to happen with A2A (agent-to-agent) - The payment masters will win. - The winning "crypto" will be orthogonal forms of cryptography. TEEs for verification, zkps embedded into the agent process for agents to demonstrate rule following without disclosing much else - The winning "crypto" as in cryptocurrency will be EigenLayer AVS, Phala, NEAR, a few other infra players. It won't have anything to do with payment in the way people are talking about it. It will be hard-core infra for trust primitives. But this is also not absolute. Crypto natives will have to become smarter, repair the industry perception, and articulate why decentralized alternatives actually matter or else AWS etc. will win. Every time you promote a scam, you are making the chances of adoption for the teams with non-zero chances of success a little bit more difficult. Chance of agent coin adoption: 0% Chance of launchpad-driven project beating PayPal and Google: -5%
