On the other hand, Wang said that the company planned to extend its AI tool to include AI agents which can perform various tasks for users. One of the hashkey tasks (Hsk) Hopefully its AI agents can do in the future to automatically invest in cryptographic assets based on capital and user target yields, Wang said.

AI agents were a burning subject in cryptographic spaces while traders revolve towards the ease and innovations offered by these agents in the management of their finances. However, some have also criticized their usefulness and function in the cryptographic community.

Recently, the co-founder of Binance Changpeng “Cz” Zhao said Most of the time, the developers of AI agents spend too much time focusing on the development of a token for their AI agent instead of the utility of the agent. Therefore, he recommended Developers to make a “very good agent first” before launching a token.
