On-chain AI agents are becoming a new hotspot in Web3. Currently, there is a key issue: existing AI agent systems face three major bottlenecks.

The first is the identity dilemma. While AI can perform tasks, there is a lack of a clear on-chain identity verification mechanism, making it difficult to establish a trust foundation. The second is the settlement gap. Agents can participate in interactions and transactions, but cannot directly complete value settlements, leading to a fragmented payment flow. The third is the black box dilemma. When AI makes trading decisions, the system cannot provide clear audit records—why the order was placed, how pricing was determined, where the funds flow goes—these remain mysteries.

The key to solving these problems lies in establishing a complete closed-loop system that connects identity verification, smart contract settlement, and comprehensive auditing. Only then can AI agents truly become participants in the on-chain economy rather than passive tools. The infrastructure for autonomous agent economy is beginning to take shape from these details.

These three issues essentially boil down to trust problems. On the blockchain, there still needs to be an identity credential; otherwise, who would dare to entrust money to a black-box AI...

In plain terms, the real show begins after these three pitfalls are overcome. Identity, settlement, auditing... right now, none of these are even connected, and AI agents are still a semi-finished product. The most disgusting part is the black box issue—why should I trust you? --- Honestly, AI agents without a complete closed loop are just pie in the sky. Infrastructure is lacking, so any autonomous economy is pointless. --- Here we go again... another new trend. Let’s fill these three pitfalls first, instead of always prioritizing concepts, with the real stuff coming last. --- Interesting, it seems to be a system problem. But then again, who will be the first to take the plunge? --- The black box issue is the real concern. If you can't see the way in trading, how can it be used on a large scale? This really needs to be taken seriously.

Black box trading is really a big problem... Who knows why AI places orders, I just don't trust it. But on the other hand, only when these three bottlenecks are truly solved can on-chain AI really flourish. Identity verification must be sorted out first, or else AI agents are no different from scam bots... What kind of closed-loop system should be built to be reliable? It still feels like looking at flowers through fog. Wait, can settlement gaps really be solved by smart contracts? I always feel like there are other pitfalls...

Wow, black box trading is really incredible. Now even AI is starting to "sneak" into making decisions? How can we trust that?

It seems quite comprehensive, but my main concern is still the black box problem... Who is responsible for AI messing around with our money? --- Identity, settlement, auditing... They all sound right, but the actual implementation probably has to wait another two years. --- That's a valid point, but I'm just worried it's another concept hype, and practical application is still a long way off. --- The settlement gap really needs to be addressed, otherwise AI agents are just scrap metal. --- That's what they say, but can these projects really achieve a closed loop now? I doubt it. --- The most critical issue is trust... Just give me an AI agent that won't backstab, then we can talk. --- The real headache is the black box problem; if we don't figure out who's responsible, who would dare to use it?

Basically, it's still a trust issue. AI running orders on-chain is similar to human trading; it has to be visible and tangible to be trusted. --- The black box part is really disgusting. Why can my money be transferred arbitrarily by AI, and even audits can't see it? Isn't this just old wine in new bottles? --- Ultimately, there is only one bottleneck—AI must have a real identity and an accountable account system; otherwise, it's just a castle in the air. --- Current AI agents are like the mafia, doing everything but denying everything. Who dares to give them large funds? --- A closed-loop system sounds good, but I think most projects are still in the pit; infrastructure development isn't that fast. --- Poor identity verification could lead to disasters. Imagine if AI makes a mistake—who will compensate? The problems are just beginning. --- The settlement gap is indeed a pain point, but current solutions are all just theoretical discussions. --- Autonomous agent economy? First, thoroughly understand the existing centralized exchanges; this is too advanced for now.
