We begin our discussion by detailing our experience over the last month of tussling with the injection of AI into all things relevant to our existence. Not just from what we have been building in context of the crypto space, but also our personal livelihood. We explain how we have built a core thesis around the metaverse over the last 5 years since we began development in Decentraland. Now with AI that core thesis is beginning to shift and our interpretation as to what needs to be built is changing dramatically as a result.

We showcase some examples of this while stumbling onto a metaverse builder in the newly deployed Bitmap Emporium world while on the podcast. As we watch this human builder concept a virtual casino on his parcel, we begin to imagine how an agentic economy will form synergies with what already exists. We then envision a reality where AI is producing content so rapidly and at such a low cost that it diminishes the value proposition of the content application layer itself, which we believed held the most value in context of the metaverse economy due to its difficulty to produce by human developers. We then to theory craft what can emerge to supplement this removal of value. Will it be a DMT based commodity layer that embeds intrinsic value into the digital economy of the metaverse that agents and humans can co-operate to harvest and extract?

We discuss the rapid acceleration of AI technology with Bootoshi, founder of Cypher Genesis and the Bitcoin Boo’s. With Bootoshi’s expert understanding of the AI sector, we explore the depths of use cases for AI integration not only in the crypto sector, but for real world use as well. Bootoshi is leading a movement of AI enthusiasts who are dedicated to improving their personal abilities with AI in order to compete with the impending agentic economy. We discuss how best to leverage AI and assess the role of humanity in context of Agents displacing a lot of human need for economic contribution. 2025 being touted as the year for AI dominance it is important to find an optimal positioning and understanding of how the market will evolve in order to capitalize effectively.

We have a fascinating conversation with the creator of @reality_spiral token $RSP, which is positioned to become a top-tier AI agent infrastructure component. Already, Reality Spiral developers have become the #2 contributors to the Eliza Github. We break down the motivations behind the open source community contributing towards Eliza’s expansion. Also, what components are remaining to build for Agents to have more autonomous controls over their actions?

We discuss the ethical ramifications of this and how the human-to-machine interface remains connected in light of the rapid acceleration toward self-sovereignty for AI.

We then discuss potential applications for AI swarm technologies in the context of the metaverse and how the concept of “Reality Spiraling” can be utilized for rapid iteration. We explain the non-arbitrary roots of Bitmap and theory craft in real-time with the assistance of AI a use case implementation for swarms building in the metaverse.

With the release on OpenAI’s new o3 model coming in the next couple of months, already trial results are showing that these AI models are significantly more intelligent than 97% of humans on earth. With such rapid acceleration in AI reasoning many are saying in 2025 we will witness the first moments of AGI on display. We contemplate the implications of this and how the desire to unlock this path will navigate the web3 AI agent space. We then discuss some of the major pain points of the Bitcoin ecosystem and how we plan to address some of them with further developments that address the lack of viability problem. We break down some targeted improvements to the DMT protocol which will drastically improve the user experience for UNAT holders and creators. This is the last recorded podcast of 2024, we’d like to thank everyone who helped us push the DMT movement forward and is aligned in furthering the progress of NAT creation. It is likely the next boom in the Ordinals ecosystem will come from within the DMT community, as we harbor the tools to produce the most original creations within the entire Bitcoin ecosystem. We look forward to another year of experimentation and market discovery.

We deep dive into some of the deeper implications to what we are observing in the rapidly expanding AI ecosystem. It is clear that the majority of market interest is beginning to gravitate toward AI agents and discovering new verticals of application and use within the context of the web3 economy. We ponder what the end results of this will look like as it will expand the participation pool beyond the capacity to attract retail eyeballs and capital into the market. With Agents having deep contextual awareness of how to custody their own assets and how to engage with protocols in order to increase their own internal wealth, this will effectively accelerate all future market cycles by many orders of magnitude.

However much of a break through this is for the crypto markets, there is a deeper story overall to the existential realities of a physical and digital economy that are both dominated by AI agents and automation technologies, effectively making humans obsolete and void of purpose within the market economy. We ponder some of the already proposed solutions to this such as UBI’s that are directed toward sustaining human needs in a world where everything is in abundance. Perhaps a complete revamp of our value systems are what is needed, and an even more concerning potential to the entire AI race is the complete removal from human involvement in a future economy completely dominated by the AI Agents we are deploying and refining today.
