In this groundbreaking conversation with Eman Mostaque, we explore the inevitable convergence of cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence—two revolutionary technologies poised to fundamentally reshape our economic systems. Mostaque makes the provocative case that crypto is essentially "AI money," arguing that within 1000 days, Wall Street as we know it will be replaced by AI-driven financial systems operating on blockchain rails. We dive deep into how AI agents will soon manage our investments with superhuman capabilities, learning our trading habits and executing strategies that outperform human traders. As these autonomous agents emerge, the need for instant, low-cost, cross-border settlement becomes critical—positioning assets like XRP as potential infrastructure for agentic payments. The discussion reveals how attention—not computation—will become the scarcest commodity as AI creation costs approach zero, fundamentally shifting value from production to curation.
