Arpan Nanavati breaks it down perfectly in this clip... the whole thing is a cost curve.
Right now, it costs about $10 a day in inference to run an agent... hedge fund territory. But inference costs have already dropped 100x in three years, and every step down changes who can afford to play:
At $1 a day, every protocol is running agents
At cents a day, your wallet has agents built in, managing your idle capital
At microcents, you get agent swarms
Jevons paradox... every time the cost of something collapses, usage explodes.
Intelligence is scaling, and theres no reason the number of agents executing onchain cant scale near infinitely.
Madness.
When agents cost cents a day, there will be billions of them... and all of them need somewhere to hold money and transact. That's the piece I published this week. https://t.co/OFY6HExSsG

Quoted context
These are the quoted author’s words.
The agentic economy is not going to run through the Bank of England. It's going to run onchain. Billions of agents will hold money, lend, borrow and hedge at machine speed. Very soon DeFi will become agent treasury infrastructure. https://t.co/EhuS9syHs4
