🤖 Your AI agent needs a wallet. Your AI agent needs to move value. Your AI agent needs infrastructure that doesn't exist yet.
CoinCap founders Justin and Kent return 8 months after their first appearance to reveal why they rebuilt their entire crypto data platform for the agentic future. This isn't theory. They're running an MCP server that AI agents hit thousands of times a day, and what they've learned is changing how we build at the AI-crypto intersection.
In this episode:
⚡ Why "DeAI is inherently DeFi" (but DeFi isn't DeAI)—the convergence thesis nobody's discussing
⚡ MCP servers vs traditional APIs: the night-and-day difference for agent performance
⚡ How your agent will negotiate with their agent (and why the entire sales funnel disappears)
⚡ What data AI agents ACTUALLY want: reliability, technical indicators, and cross-chain coordination
⚡ The multichain catastrophe agents must solve (wallet management across Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum)
⚡ Why crypto Twitter is unusable and where serious builders get signal instead
⚡ Real talk: when to use AI vs when to build manually (precision still matters)
The bottom line: If you're building AI agents, they'll need crypto rails. Not because of ideology, because there's no other way to exchange value autonomously. CoinCap is building the infrastructure layer that makes this possible.
