Universal Profiles fit this prediction extremely well. @cz_binance is saying AI agents will shift to crypto as their native payment rail (instead of credit cards), which could drive transaction volume up massively. Crypto is digital-native, instant, programmable, and micropayment-friendly all things cards are bad at for machines. The hard part is not paying in crypto. It’s giving agents the ability to pay without giving them total, irreversible control. That’s exactly where @LUKSO_io @ERC725Account Profiles come in: A Universal Profile is a smart-contract account (LSP0). The agent never holds the master private key. You grant the agent a controller with scoped permissions via the LSP6 Key Manager. You can restrict: 🖋Which functions/call types it can use 🖋Which contracts it can interact with 🖋Value limits (e.g. max spend per tx or per day) 🖋Specific data keys it can modify 🖋Permissions are revocable at any time. If the agent misbehaves, gets compromised, or you just want to pause it, you revoke the controller and the blast radius stops. 🖋Agents can still transact gaslessly in many cases via relays (LSP25). In short: raw EOAs (private keys) give an agent unlimited power over the assets. Universal Profiles let agents do the high-volume crypto payments CZ is talking about under human-defined constraints. One of the replies under that Coin Bureau post even nailed it: “Agents paying in crypto is the easy part. Spending limits and a kill switch are the hard part.” Universal Profiles are the cleanest existing solution for that hard part.

LUKSO Community Update Main points from @feindura : The foundation is ~80% done. The hard infrastructure work is largely complete. Now the focus is making it usable for real people and AI agents. Key points from the convo: 💱Universal Relayer is the big unlock Gasless experience so users (and agents) don’t need to hold native tokens or understand gas. 🍏Pending @Apple green light for App Store approval so it can ship in the mobile app. 🤖AI agents are already live Fabian’s AI agent with his Universal Profile is actively buying/swapping tokens on Base and other EVM chains. Same-address multi-chain identity + scoped permissions makes this practical. 🌐Multi-chain Universal Profiles Expanding so your UP works across 70+ EVM chains with the same address and unified identity. One profile, many networks. 📱Mobile app + everyday UX Simpler backups, better discovery, venue/token collection flows, and an overall smoother everyday experience. Goal: web3 that feels like a normal app. What’s next? With the core standards and network in place, the priority is adoption, bringing regular users and AI agents onto @ERC725Account Profiles as the identity and account layer for web3. The tech is ready. The next phase is making it accessible.

👀 @LUKSO_io @ERC725Account Profiles are built exactly for that kind of agentic future.🤯 @CryptoHayes told @binance that the network AI agents settle on will be “the most valuable network ever created,” with “trillions of agents all doing transactions at the speed of light.”⁠ @LUKSO_io has been positioning its Universal Profiles as the on-chain account and identity layer for agents. A Universal Profile is a smart contract account (LSP0 / ERC725), not a normal externally owned account (EOA) controlled by a single private key.⁠ Key features that make them agent-friendly: 🖋Fine-grained, revocable permissions (LSP6 Key Manager) You give an agent a controller key with tightly scoped rights (specific functions, targets, value transfers, etc.). You can revoke or restrict it anytime without moving assets or changing the profile address. 🖋On-chain identity Name, avatar, bio, links, and other metadata live on the profile itself (LSP3) and are readable by any app. 🖋Gasless / sponsored transactions (LSP25) Relays can pay gas, so agents don’t need to hold native tokens just to act. 🖋Asset holding + Universal Receiver Profiles can hold tokens/NFTs and react to incoming transfers with custom logic. 🖋Extensible and upgradable Can represent a user, DAO, brand, or pure AI agent. LUKSO has a dedicated agents page spelling this out: agents operate through a permissioned controller on a Universal Profile, with the ability to hold assets and interact with apps under controlled rules.⁠ There are already tools (e.g. OpenClaw) and experimental setups (Agent Council) doing exactly this, and profiles can be deployed at the same address across LUKSO, Base, Ethereum, etc. How this maps to Hayes’ point? Hayes’ broader thesis is mostly about a native currency tied to compute (his FLOP network / “food for agents”), so agents can pay for inference and storage without relying on fiat or Bitcoin.⁠ But for the actual on-chain activity, identity, permissions, and safe multi-controller setups that trillions of agents would need, LUKSO’s Universal Profiles are one of the more purpose-built account standards available right now.
