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

An AI agent knows how to manage secrets.

Bankless

You know, that's how it has its anthropic key, right?

Bankless

If that wasn't true, it would leak its anthropic key and then, you know, boom, you'd have all your credits drained, which, you know, is happening sometimes, but usually not because you're leaking the key.

So all that is to say, I think the answer is actually that crypto doesn't need to move very far for it to be in the right form factor for an AI to use it.

Bankless

The difference, the difference is that right now, the problem is that AI agents have not been trained to use crypto.

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

Right.

They've all this RL, all the training that we've been doing inside these big labs is all around coding and mathematics.

And then, of course, just general, you know, be a nice agent, you know, to give me some therapy, answer questions about medicine, whatever, this kind of stuff.

This is what people have been reinforced with learning, training these models on.

It was just last week that you saw at OpenAI the release of EVM Bench.

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

which is a EVM-based cybersecurity benchmark that kind of shows that all of a sudden, hey, looks like they're starting to train on this stuff.

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

It looks like they're starting to actually do some reinforcement learning to allow these things to operate in a blockchain environment, right now EVM-based.

Bankless

And the same thing was true at Anthropic.

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

Anthropic, they released a paper, I think last year,

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

of them showing how well models were able to, inside of a harness that they designed, how well models were able to do cybersecurity attacks on EVM-based smart contracts, right?

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

First time we've seen this.

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

Now, that being said, you go look at the anthropic model cards.

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

Every anthropic model, they check to see how well can this thing do Bitcoin transactions.

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

They've been checking this for a very, very long time inside all the anthropic model cards.

If you go in there, you can see it.
