TechFlow News: On February 19, Haseeb, Managing Partner of the crypto venture capital firm Dragonfly, posted on X stating that despite operating within the cryptocurrency industry, participants still opt to sign legal contracts—not rely solely on smart contracts—when executing actual investment transactions. Even when both counterparties are crypto-native institutions equipped with technical expertise and legal counsel, they struggle to fully trust smart contracts as the sole binding mechanism. Traditional banking systems, refined over centuries, are designed around “human fallibility” to mitigate risk; by contrast, crypto systems are unfriendly to humans—complex addresses, phishing attacks, authorization vulnerabilities, and the gas mechanism all defy human intuition. Thus, cryptocurrency may not be built for humans at all, but rather as a financial system engineered for machines. For instance, AI agents can rapidly verify contracts, analyze terms, and execute agreements, preferring deterministic code over legal frameworks burdened by judicial uncertainty. The future gateway to crypto will be the self-driving wallet—an AI-powered tool that autonomously manages users’ assets across DeFi protocols, executes trades, and even negotiates and finalizes economic agreements with other AI agents. By comparison, today’s model—where humans directly interact with crypto protocols—may merely represent a transitional phase. The “human-unfriendly” characteristics of crypto systems may not be flaws, but rather signs that users have yet to catch up; once AI becomes the primary participant, crypto’s true fit-for-purpose use cases may finally emerge.
