The next economy won't be visible to humans. AI agents will transact, settle, and coordinate value at machine speed, and the only rails built for that are crypto. In this episode of The Journeyman, I explain why the major layer 1s aren't just crypto infrastructure. They're the coordination substrate for an invisible economy that's already being built. As ever, please enjoy!

When AI agents have wallets, treasuries, and profit motives, the TAM of finance becomes infinite. I sat down with Yoni Assia of eToro to explore the future of finance, where AI doesn’t just assist investors, but trades, builds, learns, and forms capital on its own, reshaping global markets into 24/7 machine-driven systems. As ever, please enjoy!

What retains value after the Economic Singularity? Blockchain creates scarcity in a digital world! As I always say, art is upstream of all wealth...
