Many people oversimplify Web3 AI — thinking it's just an upgraded automation tool that helps you run trades or participate in new offerings. It sounds advanced, but in reality, it's still stuck in scripting logic.

Where's the problem? This perception overlooks a key underlying challenge: the lack of a true solution for "identity." Without it, the AI agent economy cannot achieve scalable explosion.

Code can be copied infinitely, but agents cannot. Each AI agent needs a unique, verifiable, legally recognized identity. This is the critical dividing line for Web3 AI to move from the lab to production environments.

Currently, the exploration of digital identity mechanisms is on the right track — they provide AI agents with an "ID card" to survive and interact on-chain. With this, AI can truly become an economic participant rather than just a tool.

Honestly, the issue of identity has indeed been overlooked, and I hadn't thought about it deeply before. If this isn't properly addressed, AI agents will always just be scripts without real economic value. Getting digital identity right is the key to unleashing productivity.

Basically, it's an identity issue—that's the real bottleneck.

That's right, the issue of identity has indeed been overlooked... Most people are still thinking about automated trading, not realizing that the fundamental problem hasn't been understood. Honestly, for the agent economy to take off, identity verification can't be bypassed. Interesting, finally someone hit the nail on the head. Copying code is simple, but does the agent need independent identity verification? I agree with this logic. The analogy of ID cards is brilliant; only AI can turn from a tool into a player. Another group blindly following the trend, completely misunderstanding the core dilemma of Web3 AI. Once the identity mechanism is sorted out, the AI agent economy can truly take off. To be honest, most projects are still messing around in the scripting stage.

Basically, the core issue is identity. Without solving this proxy economy, it's just talk on paper. Putting ID cards on the blockchain is indeed an idea, but can it really be verified? It still feels too idealistic. Unlimited code copying, proxy doesn't work? That's an interesting logic, I hadn't thought of that. Having only an ID card isn't enough, who guarantees its legal validity? It sounds good, but how about practical implementation? It's still too abstract.
