I joined
@crossmint as a Forward Deployed Engineer focused on AI agents.
For the last three years I built at the intersection of AI agents and digital assets at
@SaildotMoney. We shipped a lot and gave everything we had. A natural language interface for DeFi, a stablecoin yield agent that moved $700m, a protocol for delegating capital to agents, and one of the first agentic DeFi harnesses. We did not find PMF. I have thought a lot about why, and think we made two clear mistakes that stand out. (1) We picked use cases that were ahead of the adoption curve: swaps, lending, perps, and (2) our timing was off, an as you know, in this game, being early is the same as being wrong.
I said it all in private to the people who walked that road with me, but I want to say it publically too. Thanks to the team (
@0xdreski,
@byAlvaro_12,
@juanmadiz123), to our investors (especially
@thattallguy and
@joshcrnls), and to my brother (
@0xRcap).
My conviction is intact, and I can't be more aligned with
@crossmint's mission: the programmatic economy is coming, and AI agents will soon be its biggest economic actor. I am joining
@alfongj,
@rodrifernandezt,
@0xaguspunk,
@alexsrawitz to push this adoption forward.
We'll make awesome announcements in the coming weeks. Get ready. Agents are coming.
