Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

Like when Ethereum first started working, they were like, oh, Ethereum's working.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

What they meant was that it worked in a command line.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

It was you specify exactly what the number is of a way that you are sending in a number in your command line, right?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

That's how you sent ETH back in the beginning before all these UIs came in and made everything much easier.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

So the point that I'm making is that crypto from the beginning

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

was designed in a form factor that's perfect for AIs, right?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

It was already there.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

We one-shotted it.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

Our bad UX is their good UX.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

Exactly, exactly.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

And for what?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

What else is a good UX?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

Oh, yeah, Privy and Google OAuth wallets.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

These models cannot OAuth.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

They don't know how to do any of that stuff, right?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

It's actually much worse and harder for them, and you don't want it to do that.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

You do not want this model to have your Google OAuth token because then it can just literally go into your Google and wreak havoc, right?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

You don't want that.

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

You want it to just have a small amount of crypto in a wallet that's self-segregated and clear rules around what it can and cannot do, right?

Bankless
Haseeb Quereshi: Crypto’s Not Made for Humans—It’s for AI

So ironically, crypto has always had the UX that is perfect for AI agents in terms of exactly what is easy for them to parse and interact with.
