It takes me 3 days to move my money from the Caymans to the US. The plumbing of our economy was built for humans with KYC checks, bank hours, weekend closures, and correspondent banks all taking their cut of the wait. Now imagine an AI agent trying to run a business on that... a machine can't use a bank. So the agents will get their own plumbing, and it'll look nothing like the old one. They’ll have wallets instead of accounts and final settlement in hundreds of milliseconds. Built for an economy where nobody sleeps, takes vacations, or goes for a walk in the park. That's why we built the smart contract platforms a decade ago, and we didn't even know it. So the invisible economy would have rails that could move at machine speed. We can't stop it. It's too late for that... But we can own the plumbing it runs on.(Raoul Pal)
