Beyond Wallet Addresses: The Coming Era of AI Identity

WEBVTT
00:01:16.878 --> 00:01:18.998
Thank you, gm.
00:01:18.998 --> 00:01:22.299
Gm or good afternoon for some of us.
00:01:22.299 --> 00:01:25.209
Welcome to our Tech Talk podcast.
00:01:25.209 --> 00:01:29.170
Yeah, Sharing a couple of things up at the top of the space.
00:01:29.170 --> 00:01:32.406
So, yeah, hopefully you can hear me nice, loud and clear.
00:01:32.406 --> 00:01:36.661
But, yeah, we'll get started here in just a second, going to pin a couple more things at the top.
00:01:36.661 --> 00:01:50.275
And yeah, give me just a moment, all right, all right, all right.
00:01:50.275 --> 00:01:54.763
Well, yeah, welcome to another one of our Tech Talk podcasts.
00:01:54.783 --> 00:02:08.668
This is a live discussion that I record here weekly and, you know, sometimes lately bi-weekly here on X, where we highlight news, innovations, education, alpha and business development in the Web3 domain, technology and digital identity space.
00:02:08.668 --> 00:02:18.866
I am your host, as always, marcus aka Winn Airdrop, the founder of iHeart Domains, and we are your number one resource for unbiased Web3 and blockchain domain educational content.
00:02:18.866 --> 00:02:27.473
We've done about 125, 130 of these TikTok episodes and YouTube videos produced and archived over the past two and a half or so years.
00:02:27.473 --> 00:02:46.455
If you want to see our entire podcast archive and listen to any of our prior recordings, you can do so, and you can read an easy blog overview of each episode right on our website at iHeartDomainscom Also.
00:02:46.455 --> 00:02:59.717
Alternatively, you can listen to prior recordings in podcast form on any major podcast player, including Apple Podcasts, spotify and iHeartRadio, easily reachable at techtalkhost.
00:03:00.198 --> 00:03:01.942
I hope I'm not going to be tongue-tied today.
00:03:01.942 --> 00:03:03.304
I feel it already coming on.
00:03:03.304 --> 00:03:07.412
I'm going to hop into some recent industry news.
00:03:07.412 --> 00:03:08.914
Opening news is typical.
00:03:08.914 --> 00:03:12.909
Then I'm going to jump into the main discussion, because it is kind of a fiery one.
00:03:12.909 --> 00:03:29.424
So first thing that I did want to announce is our website for our learning program, for our new module that we're building, our educational module for Normies for the masses to learn Web 3 and digital identity.
00:03:29.424 --> 00:03:34.774
The sign-up page, or the what do you call it?
00:03:34.774 --> 00:03:42.949
The like, the landing page for it, is now live at learnweb3.xyz.
00:03:42.949 --> 00:03:48.695
That is going to be the main URL for our new Web3 and digital identity curriculum.
00:03:48.695 --> 00:04:12.650
If you're not already familiar with the Web3 or digital identity curriculum, this is a curriculum that we have created with our expertise that covers everything from you know, obviously, digital identity, minting names in Web3, what they'll be used for, but also the basics of blockchain, nfts, cryptocurrencies, daos and everything that you'll need to be proficient in the Web3 or blockchain space.
00:04:12.650 --> 00:04:25.511
As a lot of us are coming to know, a lot of new careers are being formed either directly in the Web3 space or that requires some sort of proficiency in blockchain.
00:04:25.511 --> 00:04:37.514
Yeah, there aren't many programs out there to formally learn this, so our certification program is one that we hope you know helps serve that purpose in the space.
00:04:38.461 --> 00:04:48.303
So again, learnweb3.xyz, if you're currently interested in, you know, kind of presigning up and getting in notifications about when we're about to go live.
00:04:48.303 --> 00:04:50.430
Yeah, feel free to sign up.
00:04:50.430 --> 00:04:56.081
You'll see a spot there for you to put your name and your email address Also.
00:04:56.081 --> 00:05:06.769
Lastly, as always, registration on our own Web3 TLDs, which would be dgen, exchain and defiwallet, are now available for registration.
00:05:06.769 --> 00:05:09.524
These TLDs are owned on the FreeDane platform.
00:05:09.524 --> 00:05:13.281
You will own any SLD that you purchase on these TLDs forever.
00:05:13.281 --> 00:05:14.204
That means no renewals.
00:05:14.204 --> 00:05:22.855
It is a true asset that will live in your wallet as an NFT and you can use them to connect your wallet as well as digital identity in Web3.
00:05:22.855 --> 00:05:30.646
You can easily register any one of these domains, on any one of these TLDs, directly on our website at iheartdomainscom.
00:05:30.646 --> 00:05:40.447
Right there on the front homepage, you will see the option to search for a exchange or a deFi wallet domain name.
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:49.103
Again, kind of getting gotta get a little tongue tied, but yeah, without further ado, I'm going to hop into the main discussion.
00:05:49.103 --> 00:06:00.112
So today we're about to explore a concept so paradigm shifting that, once it clicks, you'll never look at AI or blockchain the same way again.
00:06:00.112 --> 00:06:10.964
As you can see at the top, the title of this tech talk is Agentech AI and Web3 Domains, and we're going to talk about how the future is autonomous and how the future also is going to need a name.
00:06:10.964 --> 00:06:15.348
So, first, what is Agentech AI?
00:06:15.348 --> 00:06:32.482
And I feel the need to break this down because, again, ai isn't something that's new to us, it's not new to anybody, but the concept of AI becoming kind of its own entity in the way that AI is evolving, I think may be something a lot of people haven't clicked on to.
00:06:32.482 --> 00:06:35.047
So, what is a genetic AI?
00:06:35.047 --> 00:06:38.213
What is the big deal behind these two words?
00:06:38.213 --> 00:06:40.502
Well, let's start simple.
00:06:40.502 --> 00:06:42.165
Again, we all know what AI is.
00:06:43.007 --> 00:06:49.247
Most of us have some interaction with chatbots, maybe even assistants, image generators, right here on Grok.
00:06:49.247 --> 00:06:52.093
But agentic AI is the next level.
00:06:52.093 --> 00:06:56.305
Agentic AI is AI that acts autonomously.
00:06:56.305 --> 00:07:13.127
That means it can set goals, it can execute tasks, it can learn from feedback, it can even coordinate with other AI agents and soon, and even now, it can create entire products and systems, really without any human intervention.
00:07:13.127 --> 00:07:16.127
This isn't Siri reading you the weather.
00:07:16.127 --> 00:07:27.608
This is an AI that says I noticed your schedule's overwhelming, so I just rebooked all your meetings, ordered your groceries, emailed your landlord and deployed a smart contract to automate your rent.
00:07:27.608 --> 00:07:31.793
It's AI with initiative.
00:07:31.793 --> 00:07:48.276
So, as you can see, we're talking about building something that's a completely different animal again than just interacting with a chatbot or with a custom GPT, and so this takes us to the next step of why AI, or agentic AI, definitely needs an identity.
00:07:49.199 --> 00:08:09.245
If we're talking about a world where, eventually, ai agents are potentially making decisions or signing contracts and even owning assets on the blockchain or deploying assets on the blockchain, how do we know who they are right, how do we know how to trust them and how are we able to track what they've created?
00:08:09.245 --> 00:08:44.052
I don't know how many or what percentage of AI agents that are created or what kind of programs will eventually be deployed to, like normal everyday people who just need something to update their schedule, but the way AI agents are being deployed now, and the way I anticipate will continue to happen, is they're being deployed on the blockchain right as blockchain-ownable assets and, as such, they'll be assigned the blockchain identification that we've all been assigned right, which is our wallet address, and that is the start of their identity.
00:08:44.052 --> 00:09:01.662
And that is the start of their identity.
00:09:01.662 --> 00:09:08.024
So, just like humans use emails, social handles and passports, ai agents are eventually going to need a verified identity.
00:09:08.024 --> 00:09:08.926
Researchagentx, right?
00:09:08.926 --> 00:09:10.206
These aren't human names.
00:09:10.206 --> 00:09:24.875
These will eventually become on-chain identity for agents Again, that tongue-twisting and with these, eventually you're going to know what agent wrote a white paper, right?
00:09:24.875 --> 00:09:29.418
You're going to know or be able to tip or pay an agent via their crypto wallet.
00:09:29.418 --> 00:09:50.445
You'll be able to view an AI agent's public work history on chain and also, of course, verify the origin of any AI generated content, simply by being able to map to its identity and just to kind of help it make sense as far as some real use cases, I mean like easily applicable things as people start coming to a space.
00:09:50.505 --> 00:10:15.629
Think about a legal agent, right, I actually own on chain lawyers, on chain attorneys, on chain attorney the plural and the singularcom, zero x lawyer and attorneycom Both the pro and the singular is own, actually a lot of legal crypto-related domains, all hand registers, of course, so maybe they're on the grails to me, but they make perfect legal agent names.
00:10:15.629 --> 00:10:19.919
So imagine a legal agent like what is one I just deployed.
00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:26.313
I think I did deploy OnChain Attorney and I've attached an actual chat bot to it.
00:10:26.313 --> 00:10:32.113
So if you type in OnChainAttorneycom and it takes you to a custom GPT this is where I'm going with that.
00:10:32.113 --> 00:10:35.225
Imagine an OnChain lawyer that uses something like that.
00:10:35.225 --> 00:10:37.852
You interact with it with your wallet.
00:10:37.852 --> 00:10:50.894
It can even draft contracts, sign smart contracts, create entire legal records, sign smart contracts, create entire legal records and it will be public, verifiable and, of course, auditable because it is using a name that is easy to remember and easy to trace.
00:10:50.894 --> 00:11:02.751
Same thing with, like journalism creating a news site, like I've had namernewscom, or for using a web3 domain unless I bring that one on chain something like autonews.
00:11:02.751 --> 00:11:19.849
It could be a GPT-based journalist that's trained on local city news and every time it publishes an article it's going to have a timestamp and be signed on chain and you're going to know exactly which AI agent wrote it and, of course, it's going to have its trust factor and be its own author right.
00:11:19.849 --> 00:11:21.331
Same thing with creative agents.
00:11:21.331 --> 00:11:24.828
Creative agents are going to create generative work on chain.
00:11:24.828 --> 00:11:42.679
Those collections are going to be minted by those agents and collectors are going to know exactly who that artist is because that agent is going to have a name, and then even going further with shopping assistance, et cetera.
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:44.625
You know all the different interactions.
00:11:44.625 --> 00:11:46.720
They may be able to earn affiliate commissions, they may be able to generate revenue, et cetera, et cetera.
00:11:47.341 --> 00:11:49.889
All of these things traceable on-chain.
00:11:49.889 --> 00:11:57.809
Again, a wallet address is just numbers and that's what everything coming into the space is.
00:11:57.809 --> 00:12:06.183
This is the only asset that you have beginning with and unfortunately it's unreadable and it's untrustworthy at face value.
00:12:06.183 --> 00:12:30.408
But a Web3 domain like eth or dgen, which I have Leo, sol, nft, defi, crypto, anything right You're able to build an actual reputation behind that namespace, you're able to build recognition in that namespace and when you build those things now you're building a verifiable identity for that namespace and for whatever you've built in it.
00:12:30.408 --> 00:12:43.144
Again, this is DNS for AI agents and that comes with credentials, audits and, again, being able to sign the digital signatures that have an actual name that are traceable back to who is creating it.
00:12:43.144 --> 00:12:46.447
It's becomes essentially the passport for AI.
00:12:46.447 --> 00:12:50.006
Yeah, I mean thinking into the future.
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:57.708
Imagine a few years from now you open up a DAO dashboard and the treasury bot that's been deployed within it.
00:12:57.708 --> 00:13:01.245
And this is crazy too, because we're actually and we're going to see how this works out.
00:13:01.245 --> 00:13:03.565
A DAO that I belong to called BaseDAO.
00:13:03.565 --> 00:13:09.529
Literally, on Sunday, we are launching an agentic AI to run the DAO.
00:13:09.529 --> 00:13:11.866
It is crazy.
00:13:11.866 --> 00:13:23.970
So we have our own DAO, which has its own voting mechanisms based on the people who own membership tokens within it, but we also bought a whole noun, so collectively, we also vote in traditional noun auctions.
00:13:23.970 --> 00:13:31.441
And this AI agent, this bot, is going to do all these things for us and help optimize these activities, and this is super cool.
00:13:31.822 --> 00:13:38.586
But again, going back to what I was saying, imagine you open a DAO dashboard and you've got a treasury bot that's rebalanced the portfolio.
00:13:38.586 --> 00:13:42.244
You've got a content agent that's already been posting new content and different drops.
00:13:42.244 --> 00:13:44.433
You've got a customer service agent that's already been posting new content and different drops.
00:13:44.433 --> 00:13:55.392
You've got a customer service agent that's working behind the scenes, handling every inquiry, and all of them are tied to a single on-chain Web3 identity that you can verify because you've created your own namespace.
00:13:55.392 --> 00:14:11.071
Again, we're entering an era of agentic economies where AI agents will build businesses, they'll create projects, on-chain, they'll be able to execute proposals, and these things can, I mean, to some extent, already happen.
00:14:11.071 --> 00:14:13.563
Maybe not plug and play, but there's some pretty.
00:14:13.563 --> 00:14:18.100
There's some pretty equipped agents out there already and even plug and play.
00:14:18.100 --> 00:14:18.942
They're pretty powerful.
00:14:18.942 --> 00:14:27.683
And then, most importantly, they'll be able to pay one another and then, most importantly, they'll be able to pay one another, probably in crypto.
00:14:27.703 --> 00:14:34.695
Again, seeing how this plays out, how this continues to evolve, I do anticipate that most agents will be deployed on chain.
00:14:34.695 --> 00:14:50.711
It has been long theorized by people a lot smarter than me that the currency or the economic ecosystem for AI agents will be crypto Right.
00:14:50.711 --> 00:14:55.533
This is what they will pay each other in, this is what they will interact with and again, anything that is going to be telling a crypto is going to get that same wallet address.
00:14:55.533 --> 00:15:01.711
Anything that gets that wallet address is going to have a need for a name, and that justifies definitely the need for our space.
00:15:01.711 --> 00:15:19.081
And again, think of a future where, eventually, you know these agents are going to have DAOs as employers, domains as IDs, wallets as banks and on-chain resume and you'll be able to hire, fire and collaborate and audit them using different Web3 tools.
00:15:20.683 --> 00:15:26.134
Now, I know for a lot of people hearing this, you know the obvious thing that you think about is the risk.
00:15:26.134 --> 00:15:36.592
As bullish as I am on a genetic AI, I run across most people who want to run far, far away from it or are afraid to deploy.
00:15:36.592 --> 00:15:38.576
You know kind of this.
00:15:38.576 --> 00:15:49.443
I want to say it's untested, but when it's your first time, you know kind of trying to wrap your head around the concept of letting something loose that can make decisions on its own on behalf of you.
00:15:49.443 --> 00:16:03.207
You know that's a scary thing and, I'll be honest, there are risks, right, you know, depending on what you deploy out there, it could potentially, you know, not align 100% initially with what you built it to do.
00:16:03.207 --> 00:16:09.212
But that's where you can definitely modify and, you know, kind of fine tune it to your liking.
00:16:09.212 --> 00:16:28.197
But then, even moving further, you know, once AI starts to flood the space, once it becomes a norm, you know, hopefully we don't start seeing things like deep fakes from AI, especially, you know, using falsified or fake identities from AI, especially using falsified or fake identities, bots posting as real people.
00:16:35.139 --> 00:16:39.451
I know that you can actually deploy actual bots to Twitter spaces that can then join as a speaker and speak.
00:16:39.451 --> 00:16:41.655
I heard a real bad example of one on our own three-name spaces.
00:16:41.655 --> 00:16:41.996
What was it?
00:16:41.996 --> 00:16:43.182
A week before last?
00:16:43.182 --> 00:16:56.166
But it's crazy because I actually saw that option pop up in the back office of one of the tools or whatever I forget what you call them sandboxes that you can use to create these agentic AIs.
00:16:56.166 --> 00:17:05.926
In the back of my sandbox, it actually has an option to set something like that up and even to clone my own voice so that it will sound like me, and this is something that you know.
00:17:05.967 --> 00:17:20.069
If I'm using it at this level and again, I will certainly admit, although I am extremely technical, curious, I click really fast and I'll definitely jump in a rabbit hole or two there are far more smarter people than me out there.
00:17:20.069 --> 00:17:30.910
There are people who are full scale, you know developers and understand AI tech to a degree that the normal person wouldn't, and those people you know have the potential to use this in a very bad way.
00:17:30.910 --> 00:17:46.530
And this, all of this bad right, all of this risk it just reinforces the need for on chain transparency and literally the easiest way to create on-chain transparency.
00:17:46.530 --> 00:17:53.090
It's almost like we saw it coming, but on-chain namespaces, on-chain domains.
00:17:53.090 --> 00:17:54.987
It solves that problem.
00:17:54.987 --> 00:17:58.087
It does that to a T Again.
00:17:58.087 --> 00:18:00.644
It's agentic AI, web through domains.
00:18:00.644 --> 00:18:02.244
It's a match made in heaven.
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:06.265
There are two ecosystems that are made for each other, two rising technologies.
00:18:06.265 --> 00:18:09.526
Agents will need reputation systems.
00:18:09.526 --> 00:18:11.343
Web through domains can link to them.
00:18:11.343 --> 00:18:13.686
Agents may need soul bound credentials.
00:18:13.686 --> 00:18:17.471
Web 3 domains can link to them.
00:18:17.471 --> 00:18:33.376
I can come up with a million different reasons for why building a brand, building credibility behind a name, will last and will create a lot of value behind you and what you deploy out there.
00:18:33.376 --> 00:18:39.159
So, going back to again, you know those who are seeing this from a critical standpoint.
00:18:39.159 --> 00:18:50.803
It's important that us that are building and continuously onboarding people into the space that we build responsibility Again, agenda, ai and Web3 agents, or Web3 identity is like a power tool.
00:18:51.482 --> 00:19:01.286
Power tools can build homes or they can hurt people, and so it is definitely up to us to shape this space correctly and again show people how this can be utilized.
00:19:01.286 --> 00:19:03.906
The world is changing fast.
00:19:03.906 --> 00:19:08.429
Again, we're not just talking about smarter AI or cooler domains.
00:19:08.429 --> 00:19:18.154
We're talking about a future where, potentially, ai is going to have an identity and an agency.
00:19:18.154 --> 00:19:26.499
Identity is decentralized, work is autonomous and every agent, every person, every idea has a verifiable and ownable name.
00:19:27.662 --> 00:19:30.613
With that being said, we just had a guest join our space.
00:19:30.613 --> 00:19:40.457
I want to say definitely, want to say good afternoon, I want to give you a chance to go ahead and introduce yourself, but up on the stage right now we've got AINow.
00:19:40.457 --> 00:19:48.756
For those who will be listening later, he is famously the new owner of AgenticAIcom, so definitely the main.
00:19:48.756 --> 00:19:54.512
That ties right into the narrative of what's coming, how the space is building.
00:19:54.512 --> 00:19:56.336
But definitely would like me to say hi.
00:19:56.336 --> 00:19:58.942
And then I wanted to get your thoughts as well.
00:19:58.942 --> 00:20:13.416
You know, obviously you must be bullish on Agility AI with the recent purchase of the domain, but how do you feel about Web3 domains and their potential tie or use in, you know, agents as they become deployed on-chain?
00:20:13.416 --> 00:20:15.075
Sorry for that long-winded question.
00:20:16.092 --> 00:20:16.795
Hey, it's all good.
00:20:16.795 --> 00:20:22.498
Good morning, marcus, or GM, or good night, good evening, whatever you want to call it.
00:20:22.498 --> 00:20:26.775
I just want to start off by saying thanks a bunch for being flexible on this.
00:20:26.775 --> 00:20:37.314
I know we kind of talked earlier, so I just want to say I really appreciate your flexibility on this and I just want to say hello to iHeart Domains, if there's another person behind there.
00:20:37.314 --> 00:20:46.739
But yeah, you're correct, we did acquire agenticacom at a reasonable or fair value.
00:20:48.001 --> 00:20:53.374
We think there's a lot of upside potential in the forward looking years.
00:20:53.374 --> 00:21:00.585
The CAGR or the compound annual growth rate, the search traffic, the way AI agents are going.
00:21:00.585 --> 00:21:04.279
There's this new term called vertical AI agents.
00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:10.009
It's obviously, you know, it's a little bit more specialized or focused than just like AI agents.
00:21:10.009 --> 00:21:19.980
But there's this new-ish term that I've seen floating around called vertical AI agents, kind of in a specific vertical of an industry or buying a business.
00:21:19.980 --> 00:21:30.869
But yeah, you know, forward looking, I think we're, I think we're, you know, I think the forward, you know this is just my opinion the forward outlook of a Gentic AI is really positive in my opinion.
00:21:30.869 --> 00:21:42.532
Just looking at the data and the trends and the graphs and talk on X and talk on social media and I, you know, I think, in my honest opinion, we're just, you know, getting started.
00:21:42.532 --> 00:22:00.099
You know, I mean, I think eventually in the coming years, next, you know, under five years, you'll have, you know, you'll be, you know, just you know, you'll be like a car wash attendant or you'll be like a car salesman, or you just you know whatever you want to call it, and you'll have a little AI agent on your computer.
00:22:00.099 --> 00:22:10.374
You know, managing your emails, managing your calendar, automatically accepting invites or automatically handling tasks and emails and responses for you and and coordinating all those things.
00:22:10.374 --> 00:22:15.752
And so you know, I think you know the other thing is is with AI agents.
00:22:15.752 --> 00:22:28.092
I mean, you know, I've mostly seen it around X, and you know X is, I don't want to say nerdy, but you know, just in my personal experience, I've seen trends on X before they go mainstream.
00:22:28.092 --> 00:22:34.854
And so you know, some people say X is like the hive mind or the internet, or whatever you want to call it.
00:22:35.516 --> 00:22:40.246
But you know, in terms of Web3 and digital identities, you know, my honest opinion is a lot of things are going to be tokenized.
00:22:40.246 --> 00:22:44.382
But you know, in terms of Web3 and digital identities, you know, my honest opinion is a lot of things are going to be tokenized in the coming years.
00:22:44.382 --> 00:22:59.640
I don't necessarily know how soon or how quick or how fast or how much, but you know, just looking at general trends and data, in my opinion I think a lot of things are going to be tokenized, whether it's like stocks or art.
00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:02.539
I mean, obviously some of this stuff is already being done, there's no question.
00:23:02.809 --> 00:23:07.162
But you know, forward, looking at like how much more is going to be tokenized?
00:23:07.162 --> 00:23:11.054
And you know we already have like USDC and all these.
00:23:11.054 --> 00:23:16.981
You know all these other other things going on on tokenization and RWA, real world assets.
00:23:16.981 --> 00:23:27.020
But yeah, you know, I'm just I'm not particularly caught up with the narrative or caught up with the current state of digital identities.
00:23:27.020 --> 00:23:36.641
I kind of know what they are, but you know, in relation to Web3 and the blockchain and tokenization, I think long-term that's only going to continue growing.
00:23:36.641 --> 00:23:40.294
I just want to say thanks again for having me on Marcus and iHeart Domains.
00:23:40.294 --> 00:23:41.278
I really appreciate it.
00:23:42.450 --> 00:23:44.617
Yeah, absolutely, and love having you on.
00:23:44.617 --> 00:23:52.423
I also enjoyed having the ability to chat with you almost right after you made the acquisition of the domain and picking your brain.
00:23:52.423 --> 00:23:56.560
I also want to welcome you to the free name community as well.
00:23:56.560 --> 00:24:01.157
I've already kind of told our VIP community about you, so, uh, definitely glad to have you there.
00:24:01.157 --> 00:24:08.801
Um, a couple things I I did want to touch on and and so to kind of make this connection for you, uh, to catch you up to speed.
00:24:09.505 --> 00:24:24.587
Um, the theory is, is that most agents, at least right now, right with the narrative that we're following now, like you, you made a point, um, that twitter, you know, kind of acts like, like a hive, or can sometimes break technology before it goes mainstream.
00:24:24.587 --> 00:24:54.121
It seems like that, right, and the narrative here, for the most part, is that these agents are being deployed on chain, um, the the pretty much the simple connection is that you know anything that's deployed somewhere needs a name, right, so that you can identify it, and more than just a Twitter name, right, but an actual, verifiable name so you can trace what it is doing as it's interacting on the blockchain Agents, as I'm currently seeing and interacting, and I was going to ask you as well have you currently built out any agents?
00:24:54.121 --> 00:25:00.741
But just some news, that kind of where this space is going, and again, I hope this.
00:25:00.741 --> 00:25:04.809
I see this as being like the next wave that takes over.
00:25:04.809 --> 00:25:12.223
I mean, obviously, agentix has a use case anywhere far beyond outside of crypto, but just within our little circle.
00:25:12.223 --> 00:25:15.692
Right, we're coming from a bull.
00:25:15.692 --> 00:25:17.354
We're coming into a bull run of Agentix.
00:25:17.354 --> 00:25:19.315
We're coming into a bull run of agentics.
00:25:19.414 --> 00:25:30.663
I mentioned last week that Solana Agent Kit has now enabled any agents that you build there you can actually launch a Pump Fund token within their platform and attach it to the agent.
00:25:30.663 --> 00:25:34.426
So already you know they have an ecosystem where you can deploy agents.
00:25:34.426 --> 00:25:37.976
Agents can deploy token assets on chain.
00:25:37.976 --> 00:25:44.958
But even beyond that virtual's ecosystem has evolved to the point where you can literally gamble on agents.
00:25:44.958 --> 00:26:05.923
Right now, if you wanna participate in, basically, agent IPOs, they have a whole list of agents that are about to launch tokens and you can get into pre-sales on agent and these are actual agentic AI agents who are bidding for you to fund their token to be launched on chain and do whatever it is that they're going to do.
00:26:05.923 --> 00:26:19.585
So even before this catches, I think, mainstream, you're going to see the kind of degen economy really kick this into high gear and turn this into kind of a money farm for a little bit.
00:26:19.664 --> 00:26:39.242
And again, with a lot of things being incubated within Web3, with there being, you know, kind of a natural, a natural use right, a natural, you know, a natural tie with the Gen 6, an easy way for for, again, us nerds here to turn you know digital money into real money.
00:26:39.242 --> 00:26:47.971
There is going to be a need to name them and the best way to name these things in really, you know, structurally is on chain.
00:26:47.971 --> 00:26:52.185
If the asset exists on chain, web3 names exist to name those things.
00:26:52.185 --> 00:27:00.770
So hopefully that wasn't too long winded, of kind of a response to what you're saying and also kind of an answer as to you know why.
00:27:00.770 --> 00:27:03.138
I think the two worlds are definitely made for each other.
00:27:03.138 --> 00:27:10.403
But back to the question that I wanted to ask you have you had a chance to build in the world of AI or agentics personally yet?
00:27:10.403 --> 00:27:12.954
Do you have any personal experience with that?
00:27:12.954 --> 00:27:15.602
And it's cool if it's a yes or if it's a no.
00:27:16.330 --> 00:27:21.875
I do have a follow-up question, depending on what the answer is or if it's a no, I do have a follow-up question, depending on what the answer is.
00:27:21.875 --> 00:27:22.717
Actually, yeah, that's a good question.
00:27:22.717 --> 00:27:38.538
Um, I was looking at this agent builder, sas or platform, uh last week or two weeks ago actually for domain names because, um, I was looking for it to like automatically appraise names or automatically like do data crunching.
00:27:38.538 --> 00:27:41.852
It was very domain focused but I ran into.
00:27:41.852 --> 00:27:46.080
The problem is with the tool or platform I picked.
00:27:46.080 --> 00:27:51.397
I kind of gave up in like an hour or so because it just seemed too complicated for me.
00:27:51.397 --> 00:28:09.378
Now, I'm not saying that goes for every agent platform or make your own agent platform, but at least the one I choose, that just with the UI and all these different connectors and steps and processes and things, it just got a little overwhelming and a little daunting for me.
00:28:09.378 --> 00:28:16.721
Now I understand, like, the whole point of like if you can actually automate this agent or build this agent like the ROI is like insane.
00:28:16.721 --> 00:28:20.961
You know you can have it do automatic, whatever it's.
00:28:20.961 --> 00:28:23.213
Just it's just with the platform I was using the.
00:28:23.213 --> 00:28:40.282
I don't want to say the UI wasn't unfriendly, it was just the whole getting a setup from A to Z was a little daunting Because I think I mean it could be my fault too, because potentially, maybe what I was trying to accomplish was too complex or complicated.
00:28:40.282 --> 00:29:02.013
I mean, I'm sure it can be done with an AI agent, but you know, I'm a brand new beginner, you know dabbling in AI agents and so you know it's different than like, hey, I'm going to talk to chat GPT about this prompt or about have a long winded conversation with chat GPT and do some prompt engineering, long-winded conversation with chat gbt and doing some prompt engineering.
00:29:02.013 --> 00:29:04.038
Um, so you know like, on that front, you know prompt engineering.
00:29:04.038 --> 00:29:06.683
Or you know talking to ai in a elegant manner, if you will.
00:29:06.683 --> 00:29:08.476
I've gotten good at that.
00:29:08.476 --> 00:29:14.114
But when it comes to these ai agents, this is like my first time actually exploring or dabbling in one.
00:29:14.114 --> 00:29:16.740
So I actually gave up after like an hour or two.
00:29:17.101 --> 00:29:18.853
Doesn't mean I'm not going to revisit it.
00:29:18.853 --> 00:29:22.821
I think there is a strong possibility I need I will revisit it.
00:29:22.821 --> 00:29:32.589
I just think I need to either, you know like, just watch a YouTube video, watch a tutorial, you know like, rather than just go in blindingly on building an agent.
00:29:32.589 --> 00:29:40.845
And I think I mean, obviously you know I mean whether you're making an agent for, like, domain appraisals or getting ideas or whatever you want to call it.
00:29:40.845 --> 00:29:44.257
I mean, obviously there's a use case and value there and obviously they exist for a reason.
00:29:45.111 --> 00:29:49.762
It's just you know, like I said in my experience, I just found it a little daunting or overwhelming.
00:29:49.762 --> 00:30:02.633
But again, you know, that's why I just need to watch a YouTube video or to tutorial or start with a more simple idea, because that's kind of like how I got started with vibe coding.
00:30:02.633 --> 00:30:04.299
This kind of plays into it is.
00:30:04.299 --> 00:30:07.932
When I started out at vibe coding, I was just really bad, like my first project.
00:30:07.932 --> 00:30:10.819
It was too complicated, it was just, you know, whatever.
00:30:10.819 --> 00:30:18.633
But eventually, as I did more vibe coding, I broke it down into smaller goals or smaller sections and then built up my vibe coding skills.
00:30:18.633 --> 00:30:20.517
Not that I'm an expert at it or any means.
00:30:20.517 --> 00:30:31.810
It's just you know, when you first start doing it, you kind of don't understand the technicalities or the complexities of building a moderately complex application or website vibe coding.
00:30:31.810 --> 00:30:34.432
But yeah, that's my response.
00:30:36.233 --> 00:30:55.964
Yeah, you actually make a great point and it's I hate to like I feel like I'm an extremely optimistic person that every time like I speak about Web3 domains or Web3 in any way, like I always just find the greatest possible road forward.
00:30:55.964 --> 00:31:01.847
But everything does kind of inspire the fact that there's a solution right.
00:31:01.847 --> 00:31:11.200
And once that solution happens, that adoption or mass adoption may soon come with it, just like everything else right.
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:19.844
When something is extremely difficult or when it's hard to understand or build with, you have kind of only this select group of people that understand it and create with it that inspire the rest.
00:31:19.844 --> 00:31:32.919
But once that UI does exist, where the rest, you know, kind of on on equal ground, aka things like we were talking about this earlier in the spaces like how you know, used to feel like you had to have a technical degree to launch a token.
00:31:32.919 --> 00:31:44.075
Now you can launch one any one and pumped up fun Web3 TLDs, for example, anyone and pumped up fun Web3TLDs, for example.
00:31:44.075 --> 00:31:44.897
Who knows how to create a namespace.
00:31:44.897 --> 00:31:46.683
You can acquire a namespace directly, turn key through free name.
00:31:46.683 --> 00:31:52.819
Same thing with AI, right, we are at that point right now with AI agents.
00:31:52.819 --> 00:31:54.002
We're there with agentics.
00:31:54.002 --> 00:32:00.621
I think we scaled understanding or even using and implementing AI in our everyday lives.
00:32:00.621 --> 00:32:03.239
I think that happened relatively quickly.
00:32:03.239 --> 00:32:22.972
As far as emerging technology goes, I think we usually take a little bit longer to just accept something and run with it, but it seems like we went from you know, using AI to create filters on Instagram to you know, fully embedding it, at least in again in chatbot interaction to that extent.
00:32:22.972 --> 00:32:39.990
But again, we're still at that place right now where it feels like you have to have a technical degree in order to deploy these, and this is why I think any real estate connected to this is so cheap right now, and so this is going back to that opportunity so cheap right now, and so this is going back to that opportunity.
00:32:39.990 --> 00:32:43.298
It's so cheap because we know that day is coming.
00:32:43.298 --> 00:32:47.915
Ai itself will eventually improve itself to the point where it'll be able to embed.
00:32:47.915 --> 00:32:49.934
You get what I'm saying.
00:32:49.974 --> 00:33:10.951
I'm not trying to spread the theory that robots will take over the world, but my point being is that kind of as I explained earlier in another space and again related back to Web2Domains, as of as I explained earlier in another spaces and again related back to Web3 domains, as far as concepts, when they're past the point of pure speculation, right when they've gotten to a point where they're starting to establish themselves as a real industry.
00:33:10.951 --> 00:33:24.236
Ai, by far, has exploded as an entire industry that is going to continue to grow and continue to be embedded, whether it calls itself that or not.
00:33:24.236 --> 00:33:38.540
And so, again, when half of the world doesn't understand what's coming and you have an opportunity to own real estate or to build infrastructure in that thing before it blows, this is where millionaires and billionaires and et cetera are made.
00:33:38.540 --> 00:34:15.525
So, taking us back to the opportunity that exists, the obvious opportunity that exists building an AI, creating an AI that's one opportunity, but then owning what every agent will eventually come to and need as we start seeing multiple ecosystems of agents being deployed out, here is another, I believe, really easy way to position yourself for the boom that is eventually going to come, when these things become as easy as being able to use a button in your Instagram to launch an agent that posts and tweets and does all that stuff for you.
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:18.909
And again, I'm making up features right now, how they'll actually be deployed.
00:34:18.909 --> 00:34:26.130
I'm sure they'll have a different name, but you get my point If you play with AI in any way, shape or form or fashion.
00:34:26.130 --> 00:34:40.393
If you dug into any of these ecosystems, and especially if you played around in any of these agent sandboxes, you know where this is going, you know where this is being built, built and we're still right at the beginning of that technology, which you know.
00:34:40.432 --> 00:34:53.027
Okay for it oh well, you know, I, I just want to say it's something that's kind of funny, not in a bad way, um, but I, I have a, you know, a good friend here in town and she is, you know, relatively tech savvy.
00:34:53.027 --> 00:35:01.983
She knows how to build a computer, she knows how to, you know, build, you know do a fresh install of like Windows or Linux or an operating system and reformat a computer.
00:35:01.983 --> 00:35:14.552
And she's, you know, very technically savvy, or I shouldn't say very, but she's well equipped in the just, you know, she was over, you know, a couple weeks ago and we were just talking and I was asking her, like, have you ever heard of Grok or AI?
00:35:14.552 --> 00:35:25.246
Have you ever used AI?
00:35:25.246 --> 00:35:34.128
And you know, at this point, ai has been around for, you know, whatever, a few years, whatever you want to call it, and she was like, no, I haven't used AI.
00:35:34.128 --> 00:35:40.472
And, granted, she's a little older than me and just and just a friend, but I just found it really interesting.
00:35:40.472 --> 00:35:40.811
You know.
00:35:40.831 --> 00:35:48.059
I guess my point is, you know, I still think we're early to AI because, you know, I just, you know, this is kind of like a salt test and to a degree, is okay.
00:35:48.059 --> 00:35:59.619
So we have a relatively competent hardware tech nerdy person, but they're not really up with the times, like they're not on X or Twitter or Facebook or Instagram or whatever.
00:35:59.619 --> 00:36:02.909
They're not really on social media or using apps, right.
00:36:02.909 --> 00:36:04.523
They're very they're kind of old school.
00:36:04.523 --> 00:36:07.913
But I just found it interesting.
00:36:08.262 --> 00:36:10.394
You know kind of to your point about how we're early.
00:36:10.394 --> 00:36:20.123
Is you know, here we have this demographic or this person that I know that's never used AI and once I got her set up with Grok and Twitter and AI, she was like wow, this is amazing.
00:36:20.123 --> 00:36:24.342
I can just talk to Grok about practically anything and it will just walk me through.
00:36:24.342 --> 00:36:30.643
I can use Grok for searches and questions rather than going to Google or I can just have a conversation with it.
00:36:30.643 --> 00:36:43.172
And I'm not sure, but I know for a fact there's plenty of other people out there, because I asked a buddy of mine from college, I was like, hey, man, you ever heard of agentic AI?
00:36:43.172 --> 00:36:58.092
And he was like no, but he knows what AI is and I would consider him a relatively tech-savvy person too, and he's never heard of agentic AI or AI agents and I just thought that was an interesting salt test to some degree.
00:36:59.739 --> 00:37:12.882
Yeah, again, it's definitely one of those things that I think is just going to happen right, and it's going to take one person to deploy, or one company right to deploy, something that just clicks with the masses.
00:37:12.882 --> 00:37:29.668
Or again like either better UI or something like that, or again like either better UI or something like that, and you again going to another point, yeah, there are certainly pockets of people out there who, I mean, have not interacted or have not consciously interacted with AI.
00:37:29.668 --> 00:37:40.865
The thing about AI, though, is it is extremely easy to onboard people to using it, and that, I think, is also going to play a big factor in this spreading very fast.
00:37:40.865 --> 00:37:47.286
I mean almost anybody that you introduce this to and open up a simple chat bot and say you can ask it any stupid question.
00:37:47.286 --> 00:37:51.023
It'll give you an answer that'll make you feel like you're the smartest person in the world.
00:37:51.023 --> 00:37:53.170
I mean, that's instantaneous value.
00:37:53.170 --> 00:38:06.963
I mean, my eight-year-old daughter uses chat GPT, of course, with monitoring and limitations, but it is an extremely useful tool that it's very easy to onboard people with, and even the people who haven't heard it again.
00:38:06.963 --> 00:38:15.668
Once it clicks, that simple concept, once it clicks, it's embedded, you're hooked for life.
00:38:15.668 --> 00:38:17.932
And that virality, that usefulness.
00:38:18.701 --> 00:38:45.099
Again, it takes us out of the realm of speculation as far as whether or not AI is going to continue to be built upon, continue to be evolved, continue to gain more onboarding, not only from individuals or people consumers but also large corporations who are now starting to name themselves after this and turn the entire branch of their corporations into AI companies, speaking of which X is doing just that.
00:38:45.099 --> 00:38:51.293
Right, x is focusing more on being an AI company than a social media company.
00:38:51.293 --> 00:38:54.590
And again, we see why, because we see where this is going.
00:38:54.590 --> 00:39:08.188
Quick question, before we kind of start to wrap up this thought and don't know if you have an answer to it or not, but obviously everyone's curious You've got agenticaicom.
00:39:08.188 --> 00:39:12.210
Are you planning on building it out C or no?
00:39:12.210 --> 00:39:14.842
And if so, can you share what that is?
00:39:14.842 --> 00:39:21.711
But if not, if you see someone else eventually acquiring this domain, how do you see this domain?
00:39:21.711 --> 00:39:24.835
You know, kind of existing in the space?
00:39:24.835 --> 00:39:27.969
Again, it's a pretty big name considering where we're going.
00:39:29.699 --> 00:39:30.684
Yeah, good question.
00:39:30.684 --> 00:39:37.931
Well, you know, I think what I fall back on is just what I mean.
00:39:37.931 --> 00:39:47.342
Let's just look at agentic AI as a industry, as a vertical, as a business, as you know, something in those lines you know.
00:39:47.342 --> 00:39:54.840
What I do know is, according to the search data I saw, it gets worldwide, approximately gets 700 to 800.
00:39:54.840 --> 00:40:06.963
The keyword agentic AI gets approximately 700 to 800,000 searches on Google worldwide, relatively consistently for the last six months a year and it's growing.
00:40:06.963 --> 00:40:21.130
If you look at the graph, the keyword volume for agentic AI is growing in an uptrend, which tells me and you know the thing is that the 800,000 searches, that's a lot, but that's a fraction of the world population with what?
00:40:21.130 --> 00:40:22.755
7, 8, 9 billion people?
00:40:22.755 --> 00:40:24.621
That's a small fraction.
00:40:24.621 --> 00:40:29.172
But what I'm looking at is just the data, the trends, the charts, the graphs.
00:40:29.172 --> 00:40:32.422
What direction is it going, future-wise?
00:40:32.422 --> 00:40:36.106
And the search volume is on an upslope.
00:40:37.268 --> 00:40:50.570
You know, I was doing some market research about agentic AI with a cumulative annual growth rate or CAGR or C-A-G-R, and marketus put it at about 40% or so.
00:40:50.570 --> 00:40:55.086
Obviously, that's just an estimate and estimates are known to be wrong.
00:40:55.086 --> 00:41:00.445
There's a margin of error, but one from the reports I saw it was maybe whatever.
00:41:00.445 --> 00:41:04.112
30%, 40% cumulative annual growth rate.
00:41:04.112 --> 00:41:05.922
Point being, I was just looking at all.
00:41:05.922 --> 00:41:07.927
I wasn't even looking at comparable sales.
00:41:07.927 --> 00:41:09.190
I wasn't looking at.
00:41:10.541 --> 00:41:18.139
I think that's the biggest thing I can say is I was not looking at comparable sales, because people buy domains for all sorts of reasons.
00:41:18.139 --> 00:41:24.588
You know there's end users, there's other investors, there's wholesale, you know other speculators, whatever you want to call it, you know you might.
00:41:24.588 --> 00:41:37.259
You know like, for example, physicalaicom sold for $50,000, like within the last two years and I'm not going to go into physical AI, but you know, if you just Google it, nvidia has a blog article about it.
00:41:37.259 --> 00:41:42.849
Point being is, for this acquisition, I was looking at non-comparable sales data.
00:41:42.849 --> 00:41:47.786
I was also looking at investments made in the space.
00:41:47.786 --> 00:41:49.331
Where is the industry going?
00:41:49.331 --> 00:41:50.922
How is the industry going to evolve?
00:41:50.922 --> 00:42:07.166
A lot of my questions and thinking into this acquisition were I don't want to say forward thinking, but looking into the future, not like this year, not next year, but maybe two plus years kind of thing and and everything seemed to be positive.
00:42:07.166 --> 00:42:09.112
I mean, I'm sure there's a bear case to be made.
00:42:09.132 --> 00:42:17.831
I'm you know the grass isn't always greener and you know I've been known to be wrong, but at least for this acquisition it, you know, it's just.
00:42:17.831 --> 00:42:21.016
I was like OK, you know, I feel like the risk to reward is there, you know.
00:42:21.016 --> 00:42:28.711
But you know to answer your question directly, you know what I'm going to do with it, you know.
00:42:29.012 --> 00:42:33.731
You know I just got it you know, it's just like I've been traveling and I've been doing all these things lately.
00:42:33.731 --> 00:42:39.302
So you know, kind of just, you know we'll see doing all these things lately.
00:42:39.302 --> 00:42:40.568
So you know, kind of just, you know we'll see.
00:42:40.568 --> 00:43:00.182
But I think what I will say is you know, if you want to be called I mean, this is it's not like this needs to be stated, but I guess the way I perceive it is if you want to be the agentic AI company because agentic AI is encompassing of AI agents and anything, ai automation and you know, agentic AI is like the categorical umbrella definition term, if you want to put it that way.
00:43:00.182 --> 00:43:06.940
So you know, if you want to be called the agentic AI company or you know, want to do it, you know you would have.
00:43:06.981 --> 00:43:13.690
Thecom is just how I perceive it and, like I said, I could be wrong, but that's just how I kind of perceive it.
00:43:14.460 --> 00:43:16.005
But also I think I think it's.
00:43:16.005 --> 00:43:23.784
You know, if let's say that never happens, I never find a buyer.
00:43:23.784 --> 00:43:36.153
You know, I think it's a really strong and great name and if I don't find a buyer or if I don't want to sell it, you know, whatever the point being is, I do have the somewhat of the skills to build something out on it, maybe a marketplace, maybe a blog, maybe an informational website, you know.
00:43:36.153 --> 00:43:39.860
Or I could just go to chat GPT or Grok for ideas, you know.
00:43:39.860 --> 00:43:44.088
So you know, we'll see what happens.
00:43:44.088 --> 00:43:52.610
But you know, I think, you know, I think it's a strong, powerful name, and you know, you know, I'm sure you know.
00:43:52.610 --> 00:44:08.030
The thing is, people like to talk about end users and you know, an end user may have a totally different idea with it than I may ever envision, or or think of you know, I'm sure you know it kind of not that it needs to stay in its lane, but who knows what you could build on it.
00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:09.425
You know you could build a marketplace.
00:44:09.425 --> 00:44:10.047
You could do X.
00:44:10.047 --> 00:44:11.885
You could use it as a redirect.
00:44:11.885 --> 00:44:13.168
You know there is just a.
00:44:13.168 --> 00:44:28.173
You know, you know, I guess people when they look at domains they have different perceptions or different ways of looking at what they want to do with a domain.
00:44:28.173 --> 00:44:29.336
You could do an agentic AI newsletter.
00:44:29.336 --> 00:44:31.682
You know you want to start an agentic AI newsletter and keep you know.
00:44:31.682 --> 00:44:34.128
Thousands of people, thousands of people, updated on a weekly or daily basis.
00:44:34.128 --> 00:44:35.211
You could do something like that.
00:44:35.211 --> 00:44:39.206
But I hope that gives you somewhat of a direct answer to your question.
00:44:40.449 --> 00:44:41.710
Yeah, absolutely.
00:44:41.710 --> 00:44:46.768
Thank you for answering and, like again, looking forward to seeing what's built out with it.
00:44:46.768 --> 00:44:48.032
Again, very powerful name.
00:44:48.032 --> 00:44:59.509
It encompasses an entire category, so in one way or another, it's going to serve as either a great pillar of information or a way to discover you know, discover some agentic agents.
00:44:59.509 --> 00:45:18.275
One thing is also for sure, too and I think I saw this comment on one of your posts or something or about you earlier that it seems like ever since you bought the name, every single thing that's been showing up in my feed since then has been locking in the fact that it was a great buy.
00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:27.215
Once again, the narrative of the space of the crypto bubble is definitely aligned with the Gentic AI we're going to start seeing.
00:45:27.215 --> 00:45:28.425
We're at the very beginning of it.
00:45:28.425 --> 00:45:32.731
Right now, I can name like three or four agents maybe that exist on X.
00:45:32.731 --> 00:45:39.101
It will soon be hundreds and thousands and hundreds of thousands of them, and then that's just the beginning.
00:45:39.101 --> 00:45:53.248
It will spread beyond that again to the normal user once the UI catches up and we can start onboarding the masses, and this will be not only a way to onboard people into AI, but this will also be a way to onboard these same people into Web3.
00:45:53.248 --> 00:45:59.722
With that being said, and yeah, I want to give you a chance if you have any thoughts you want to end with.
00:45:59.722 --> 00:46:04.722
Once again, thank you for taking the time out of your evening to join us on the space.
00:46:04.722 --> 00:46:12.590
I happily moved the space at this time because I definitely wanted your feedback Again, extremely valuable feedback, and I know a lot of people are not only following.
00:46:12.731 --> 00:46:23.226
You know what you're doing with the domain, but you know also, following your journey, you're putting out and sharing some very you know what you're doing with the domain, but you know also, following your journey, you're putting out and sharing some very you know, solid data and information, again aligned with the narrative of Logistic AI.
00:46:23.226 --> 00:46:40.525
And for any of us who are in the Web3 domain ecosystem, again, if you're looking for, you know, a perfect use case, the perfect use case, the use case, the grail use case that we didn't even know would exist three or four years ago when a lot of us first started playing with these domain names.
00:46:40.525 --> 00:46:45.485
I mean, god gave us to us, gave us AI, he gave us agents, and so you know what to do.
00:46:45.485 --> 00:46:51.110
You got to name them, but yeah, with that being said, anything that you want to end with, before we close up sir.
00:46:52.860 --> 00:47:08.952
No, I just want to say thanks again for the opportunity to talk and I know we met last week or a couple of weeks ago or so, and it's been a pleasure talking with you and getting to know you and you kind of, you know, you know free name got me my first TLD.
00:47:08.952 --> 00:47:23.670
I don't want to it's not that I don't want to reveal it, but you know I will reveal it at some point, you obviously know.
00:47:23.670 --> 00:47:28.726
But you know I am excited to get my feet wet into web three with a TLD, um, and it kind of you know the way I look at it is kind of like have a stake in web three.
00:47:28.726 --> 00:47:43.655
You know, um, you know just a little stake, a little little dabbling, you know a little whatever you want to call it, um, and you know, like I said, we met within the last couple of weeks and you know I really appreciate your time and you taking the taking the time out of your day and your schedule to educate me on web three.
00:47:43.655 --> 00:47:47.041
And you know we talked a lot about various things and so I really appreciate that.
00:47:47.041 --> 00:47:48.425
You know.
00:47:48.445 --> 00:47:57.670
Closing notes, though, you know you know I think what I like the most about domains is you know, it's a common, it's a common shared interest.
00:47:57.670 --> 00:48:16.570
And what I correlated to is kind of like stamp collecting, you know, like there's there's, you know there's a ton of people into cars, there's a ton of people into crypto, you know there's a ton of people into all these hobbies, or you know sports or football or whatever hockey, whatever you want to call it.
00:48:16.570 --> 00:48:22.789
But I kind of correlate domains and I don't want to say Web3 is like oh, that's a weird niche.
00:48:22.789 --> 00:48:23.985
I don't want to say that at all.
00:48:23.985 --> 00:48:32.210
I guess what I'm trying to say is it's kind of like okay, if a stamp collector meets another stamp collector, they're like oh yeah, it's cool, let's talk about stamps.
00:48:32.210 --> 00:48:32.972
And I feel that way.
00:48:32.972 --> 00:48:43.038
I take that and resonate that a lot with domain investors and other domain people is like, hey, you want to bond and just talk over domains, whether it's web 2 or web 3.
00:48:43.038 --> 00:48:47.746
You want to talk slds, tlds, tlds taken, tlds developed.
00:48:47.746 --> 00:48:51.614
You know all these metrics, geo domains, um, exact, match.
00:48:51.614 --> 00:48:52.965
You know brandables, you know it's just.
00:48:53.405 --> 00:49:21.106
I guess what I'm trying to say is um, you know, I, you know, between you and a handful of other people I've been able to meet through X, I've been able to make some what I would call friends or domain buddies, or buddies, you know, and I just think that's the power of like a, you know, I don't want to say a niche hobby, because there's a lot of people in it, but you know, just like a specialized interest may be a better way to put it, and so I don't mean any of that negatively, I mean all that positively, and so I'm very you know.
00:49:21.126 --> 00:49:26.527
You know, between meeting you and a lot of other people in the domain space, there's a lot of cool and great people, and you know.
00:49:26.527 --> 00:49:28.780
You know, what I like is it's global.
00:49:28.780 --> 00:49:37.090
You know, I've talked to people in India, bangladesh, you know, here in the United States, you know, all across the world, and I just think it's cool to just see.
00:49:37.090 --> 00:49:50.800
Hey, you know, let's just talk about one thing and then share ideas and tips and tricks and just discuss about this, and then maybe we'll sprinkle in some personal stuff, you know, and get to know each other a little bit and through the internet, and I think that's really cool.
00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:52.684
But that's really all I have to end on.
00:49:54.226 --> 00:49:55.971
No, you're absolutely right.
00:49:55.971 --> 00:49:57.313
And it is crazy.
00:49:57.313 --> 00:50:09.994
No, you're absolutely right, it is crazy, especially in traditional domain space, how big that space is, how the transactions that have been made over the past 20 or 30 years in domains, and the fact that it's really just like a few people.
00:50:09.994 --> 00:50:21.652
Right, it's really not that big of a group and that's the beautiful thing about it, right, that small groups of visionaries can make a really, really big difference that impacts the whole world, and they don't even know it.
00:50:21.652 --> 00:50:38.657
And so again back on my super positiveness we are that group, right, we're that group of thinkers and innovators here in this bubble called Web3 that will create a concept that the world will accept because it's awesome and it'll work for them.
00:50:40.443 --> 00:50:41.728
Yeah, I'm just going to say thanks again.
00:50:41.728 --> 00:50:43.126
I'm going to drop to listening.
00:50:43.126 --> 00:50:47.507
So thanks for giving me the floor and I'm just going to drop to listening.
00:50:47.507 --> 00:50:47.969
Thanks again.
00:50:49.092 --> 00:50:49.753
Yeah, absolutely.
00:50:49.753 --> 00:51:15.425
Thank you once again for coming on as a guest and again, we're about to wrap up the space, just wrapping up with these thoughts Agents in AI or AI agents on the blockchain, web3 domains again are two opportunities, two emerging industries, two emerging technologies, that there is a bunch of both investment opportunity in as well as participation opportunity, and we are at a crossroads or something.
00:51:15.425 --> 00:51:30.195
But again, us, as this small group, just like the group I just referenced in DNS, that has the ability to create really pretty big ecosystem, financial ecosystem we are the group that is doing that here.
00:51:30.195 --> 00:51:38.213
So, without further ado, with nothing else to be said, once again, thank you guys for attending this Tech Talk.
00:51:38.213 --> 00:51:40.525
Try to do this every week.
00:51:40.525 --> 00:51:43.329
I've been doing this again for the past two and a half, three years.
00:51:43.420 --> 00:51:49.351
If you want to listen to any of the previous episodes, you can find them easily on iHeartDomainscom or on TechTalkhost.
00:51:49.351 --> 00:51:54.369
But yeah, until next time, focus on your mission and not your condition.
00:51:54.369 --> 00:51:57.583
Happy domaining and yeah, get out there building AI.
00:51:57.583 --> 00:52:10.429
Eventually it's going to be incorporated in the way that you do business, the way you think and the way you operate your day, so it's better to get ahead of the building curve already, but again, thank you for attending another Tech Talk.
00:52:10.429 --> 00:52:11.291
See you guys next week.
