Contemporary Bitcoin vs Monero fungibility and privacy debates might take a turn in the future as agentic AI might not have the same needs as a natural person (securing inclusion). So while Monero becomes the money of the people, Bitcoin still can become the reserve asset and means of exchange for agents with huge market potential. Use both and hedge your bets as you (like me) really know nothing regarding the future.

What is an agentic AI?

Gold is also good for hedging your bets (so Gold + Bitcoin + Monero). Most of the Central Bank gold buying is not reported at all. These are just official statistics. I think the guy below nailed his predictions in 1997 but was early because of certain events he could not foresee (the setup is now complete).

The inside story on the gold for oil deal that could rock the financial centers of the world.

I can see the Quantum FUD waiting in the wings for Bitcoin and Monero. The ideal time for the Controllers to unleash full-spectrum Quantum FUD on Bitcoin is during the Great Taking / Freegold reset window — once the collateral sweep is underway and gold/CBDC rails are ready — so that they can funnel panicked capital into their "quantum-safe", KYC'd rails, stigmatize self-custody BTC and Monero, and lock the new regime in under the dual banner of "financial stability" and "cyber/quantum security".

A Quantum-resistance upgrade would be terrible for Bitcoin

A serious quantum-resistance upgrade for Bitcoin would be one of the most complex, politically loaded, and coordination-fragile events in its history.

But as you said — no one knows shit about fuck, there are too many variables. Ultimately, the best way to hedge your bets is to be more Amish. Then you don't give a fuck about most of the bullshit we concern ourselves with in today's society.

It's autonomous AI agents acting on behalf of their users/or themselves.

Ohhh I think I get it. So my dash-cam would be considered agentic then because it automatically starts recording if my car is jostled while parked. That's a neat idea, though unlike my dash-cam, I don't think modern AIs are competent enough to act as independent agents like that. I think we should hold off on giving large language models autonomy, for the AI's own sake.

I agree. But people will do what people always do. They unleash the beast first and figure out how to handle it second.

AI isn't a beast. Beasts are self aware. Like I said, AI isn't competent. It can't even run a vending machine. AI is a science fiction concept and modern LLMs just can't move past their own fictionality.

If you give an AI agent yo your file system that then exctracts everything and spreads it around it may not be self-aware, butvsymblicaly speaking the consequence may be grave.

I suppose, but can you give me an example where it hurts someone else besides the person who trusted the AI?

Your data in someone's addressbook, your photos your emails or private messages,..

Eh, I treat my private messages as public information. It doesn't take a rogue AI to publish the 'ol Discord logs. It's not a secret anymore if you tell it to a friend or an AI.
