Would you let an AI agent decide your crypto strategy?
As I've moved further into crypto, I've finally started to understand digi-currency humour. There's so much I don't grasp in this space that it's a noteworthy triumph. My favourite giggle of late comes from a meme featuring a therapist and patient, captioned: 'Is the AI agent in the room with us now?' People keep saying that artificial intelligence (AI) agents are one of the narratives of the upcoming — supposedly — crypto bull run. I'm still not sure I understand any of it, but I'm going to give it a try. So, what is an AI agent? In simple terms, AI agents are autonomous systems running on software that can perceive their environment, process information, make decisions, and take actions to achieve specific goals – often on behalf of a human, company, or industry. Unlike static, pre-programmed traditional software, AI agents are adaptive. Like humans — eek! — they evolve through learning and experience. Like clockwork Think Siri or Alexa, but on steroids. An AI agent doesn't just remind you to buy groceries — it actually orders them each week. It would go beyond suggesting investments to rebalancing your portfolio. I suppose one could manage that tiresome school WhatsApp chain for you too. In business, AI agents are already proving useful in everything from customer service and supply chain management to IT support and risk analysis. The next frontier? AI agents working with other AI agents. This emerging area — called multi-agent systems, agent-to-agent collaboration, or more dramatically, a swarm — involves coordinated networks of AI entities completing tasks together, often without human intervention. Yikes is right. And while most people are getting used to this new way of things through mainstream tools like Anthropic's Claude or Microsoft's Co-Pilot, radical innovation is happening in the decentralised world, too, away from traditional tech. And that's why I am starting to believe that when it comes investing in this new space, tokenised AI projects are where it's at. It's really interesting and, like everything in crypto, very speculative. Once you start exploring this space, you'll find everything from productivity agents to niche AI-driven trading bots. I've already experimented with (and immediately lost money) investing in transaction-based projects like SoloChain and The SWARM, from CryptoSlam. Projects like ai16z use agents to make real-time investment decisions. On Solana, Goatseus Maximus offers what is considered the first AI-managed venture capital platform. Virtuals Protocol provides a platform for developers to create and deploy AI agents across various Web3 applications. Bittensor offers an entire decentralised marketplace for AI models, built on its very own blockchain. One of the buzziest new players is a trading assistant called MIND of Pepe, which has been trained on more than 60,000 crypto tweets and 3,000 market insights, according to The Cryptonomist. Of course, aside from investing, we all still need to get over the biggest hurdle in adopting AI agents, especially for financial or high-stakes tasks. And that is trust. Will the agent do what it's supposed to? Safely and securely? What could go wrong with a swarm? I'm sure you are feeling a tonne of resistance. I am too. But the truth is, we are already using AI agents as they become integrated into almost everything we do. Over the past few weeks, I've been working with Underlord, a new AI tool from the editing platform Descript. It's been helping me produce the Hotflash inc podcast — removing filler words, laying music under ads, adding in sound effects as quickly as I can write 'add a whoosh sound here', and, when I get around to it, adding B-roll and graphics to video. I just have to type in what I need it to do, and it does it. I can refine and correct as needed. It's genuinely next-level. I'm already wondering how much more smoothly my platform would run, swarm-style, if Underlord could talk with a counterpart connected to my YouTube, Instagram, and Substack accounts. Market share One thing is for sure: there is not only a productivity leap here but also huge market potential. According to citing Bitget CEO Gracy Chen, tokens tied to AI agents are expected to grow from $15 billion to $60 billion (Dh55 billion to Dh220 billion) in market capitalisation this year alone. My take here is, feel the fear and do it anyway. Every generation has its technological reckoning. The printing press. The combustion engine. The telephone. The Internet. Smartphones. AI agents are just what's next. Like all that came before, they're arriving whether we're ready or not. I'm not here to tell you to invest. I'm suggesting that it's time to understand where this innovation is happening, who's building it — and how we might thoughtfully participate. If only there was an AI agent for that.

US consumer spending falls unexpectedly in May
U.S. consumer spending unexpectedly fell in May as the boost from the pre-emptive buying of goods like motor vehicles ahead of tariffs faded, while monthly inflation increases remained moderate. Consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of economic activity, dropped 0.1% last month after an unrevised 0.2% gain in April, the Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis said on Friday. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast consumer spending would edge up 0.1%. President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs, which have led businesses and households to front-run imports and goods purchases to avoid higher prices from duties, have muddled the economic picture. Economists warned it could take time for the tariff-related distortions to wash out of the data. A record goods trade deficit in the first quarter, thanks to a deluge of imports, accounted for much of the 0.5% annualized rate of decline in gross domestic product during that period. Consumer spending also nearly braked last quarter after being propelled by households pulling forward goods purchases. Households also spent less on services last quarter, helping to restrain growth in consumer spending to only a 0.5% pace, the slowest rate since the second quarter of 2020. That data potentially puts spending on a slow growth path in the second quarter. The combination of soft consumer spending and inflation is, however, unlikely to spur the Federal Reserve to resume cutting interest rates in July. Fed Chair Jerome Powell told lawmakers this week that the U.S. central bank needed more time to gauge the impact of tariffs on prices before considering a rate cut. Economists argue that price increases have remained moderate because businesses are still selling inventory accumulated before the tariffs went into effect. They expect inflation will start picking up, beginning with consumer price data for June. The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index gained 0.1% in May, matching the rise in April, the BEA said. In the 12 months through May, PCE inflation increased 2.3% after climbing 2.2% in April. Stripping out the volatile food and energy components, the PCE Price Index increased 0.2% last month. That followed a 0.1% rise in the so-called core PCE inflation in April. In the 12 months through April, core inflation advanced 2.7% after rising 2.6% in April. The Fed tracks the PCE price measures for its 2% inflation target. The central bank last week left its benchmark overnight interest rate in the 4.25%-4.50% range, where it has been since December.

Fed's Kashkari expects two rate cuts this year, with pause possible
Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis President Neel Kashkari is sticking to his view that cooling inflation will allow the world's most important major central bank to cut its policy rate twice this year, starting in September. In an essay released on Friday, Kashkari also signalled that if progress on inflation stalls or reverses the Fed could simply pause its rate-cutting cycle until prices ease again. Tariffs suggest an inflation boost is "likely coming," he said, as more goods from Asia, subject to the biggest tariff increases, arrive on the shelves of U.S. businesses. While businesses may not want to risk angering customers by charging more for their wares, they will start passing on price increases in the absence of trade deals lowering tariffs, he said. In this scenario, the effect of tariffs on inflation may simply arrive later than expected, Kashkari said. At the same time, Kashkari said, the economic data so far has revealed "only a modest imprint of the effects of tariffs on prices, activity or the labor market," with inflation making renewed progress toward the Fed's 2% goal. That may suggest, he said, that companies have won exemptions, have adjusted their supply routes, or are otherwise finding ways to avoid the tariffs altogether, limiting the impact on inflation. "Those opposing signals have led me to maintain my outlook for two cuts over the remainder of 2025, implying a possible first cut in September, barring some surprising development before then," Kashkari said. "If we were to cut in September and then the effects of tariffs showed up this fall, I believe we should not be on a preset easing course" but could adjust to fit the new data, he added. "If the data called for it we could hold the policy rate at the new level until we gained greater confidence that inflation was headed back to our target." For now, though, Kashkari said: "We should put more emphasis on the actual inflation and real economic data that we are seeing without committing to an easing policy path in case the effects of tariffs are merely delayed." Last week, Fed policymakers left their overnight target rate for lending between banks unchanged at between 4.25% and 4.5%. Uncertainty over the outlook is keeping the central bank on the sidelines amid expectations the tariffs will push up inflation this year while depressing growth and hiring.
