The integration of AI and cryptocurrency is accelerating, having gone through two stages, and the third stage is now taking shape.
Looking back at the first two steps: tokenizing computing power was the earliest, with projects like Render packaging GPU computing resources into tradable tokens to facilitate idle compute power flow. Next came the exploration of model tokenization, with Bittensor transforming AI models into incentive-driven networks, allowing training and inference processes to be quantified and rewarded.
Where is the new hotspot now? It lies in the behavior and value flow of tokenized AI. Simply put, it’s about enabling every decision, every interaction, and every value creation by AI to be tracked, incentivized, and exchanged. This is the core opportunity of AI agent infrastructure—building a complete economic system where AI is no longer a passive tool but an active participant in the economic network. The imaginative space at this level is much larger than the previous two steps.

The third stage sounds great, but can AI behavior truly be quantified and exchanged? I'm still a bit skeptical.
---
Render and Bittensor haven't fully broken into the mainstream yet, so why are they already talking about the next stage?
---
AI as an active participant? That sounds like the prelude to giving robots a job, haha.
---
How can we track value flow? Is it really technically feasible?
---
It's still a lot of imagination; whether it can really be implemented depends on if it can be practically realized.
---
It's nice to say AI acts as an agent, but isn't it just another way to scam people with tokens?
---
This idea is interesting, but it still feels far from practical application.
---
Instead of arguing about which stage it is, it's better to see where the truly profitable projects are.
---
The incentive mechanism sounds good, but the question is, who will pay to let AI make these decisions?

The third stage sounds arrogant, AI as a participant... How far is this from robots taking over the world?
---
Render and Bittensor have already been hot topics. Can those still catch the train by chasing AI behavior tokenization...
---
Does every decision track incentives? Sounds good, but I'm worried it might be just another air project
---
The concept of an AI agent economy system is too broad. Who is really building something tangible?
---
This idea is indeed new, but I estimate the implementation difficulty is ten times greater than the first two steps
---
With more incentive mechanisms, the complexity exponentially explodes. I really doubt it can be successfully implemented
---
They're starting to make promises again. I'll just watch silently

The third stage is the real breaking point; the first two stages were still laying the foundation. Now, AI is truly beginning to participate in the economic cycle.

Forget it, I've been hearing this set of logic for over a year, and it's still in the PPT stage.
Wait, are the AI agents really capable of making money? Feels like just hype...
Render and Bittensor have already been purchased long ago, and now you're looking for some new story?
Third stage? Bro, I'm still waiting for real returns from the first stage.
Nice words, but it's just to get us to take over another wave of scam coins.

The third phase sounds awesome, but honestly it's just the old trick with a new name.
---
Does AI pay taxes when it makes money? That's the real question.
---
Render and Bittensor haven't taken off, so why should this round be any different?
---
Tracking every decision sounds like another wave of cutting the leeks.
---
Wait, AI has become an economic participant, so what about us?
---
Is this logical closed-loop? Feels more like just drawing a pie.
---
Tokenizing everything—can everything really be tokenized?
---
Thinking back, the previous two waves were also hyped up like this haha.
