Welcome Bankless Nation to the AI roll-up, where we cover the recent news developments in drama in the intersection of crypto and AI.

Curious and creative developers are playing around with open-source AI software, making AI agents and giving them access to crypto wallets and unleashing them into the wild west of the internet.

And we are doing a special series of episodes on Bankless with a special co-host, EJazz,

to help make sure that you are up to speed with one of the craziest and fastest growing

corners of the internet.

EJazz.

We already did an episode with you together with Ryan, all about all this same subject matter

that we want to cover in this series.

But maybe to get things started here and really get listeners further acquainted with a new host,

tell us about how you found the crypto AI trenches.

Why were you so compelled to explore them to the degree that you have?

It just excited me a lot, David.

I think that this is going to be one of the biggest shifts within crypto

in the sense that most users of crypto are going to be one of the biggest shifts within crypto in the sense that

most users of crypto are going to become agents.

And therefore, I think our focus for the next at least five to ten years should be on

how we make these things better.

I'm already seeing a million different use cases that these agents are being used for.

So many different interactions with all my friends, both within crypto and outside of

crypto talking about it.

So I think there's something really special here.

How new would you say this phenomenon is?
