Livio, CEO of New Huo Group: RWA Will Become the Bridge Connecting Carbon-Based Humans and Silicon-Based AI, Crypto's Next 100 Million Users to Come from AI Agents
At the "Deep Integration of AI and Crypto" roundtable during the Bitcoin Asia conference, Livio Weng, CEO of Bitfire at New Huo Group, stated that the core narrative for AI and Crypto convergence in the coming years will likely focus on the "agential economy." As infrastructure for AI identity recognition, authorized wallets, and payment protocols matures, AI will progressively gain the ability to autonomously use, manage, and transact assets, deeply integrating with existing crypto sectors like trading, prediction markets, asset management, and payments.
Livio believes Real World Assets (RWA) will serve as a crucial bridge connecting carbon-based humans and silicon-based AI. On one hand, RWA can tokenize traditional assets, enabling AI to use and trade assets from human society. On the other hand, "AI assets" such as computing power, data, and AI-generated services can also be made accessible to humans through RWA formats for purchase, analysis, and trading. This process will drive deeper integration between humans and AI.
"The next 100 to 200 million new crypto users may not be humans, but AI Agents," Livio suggested, noting that future critical infrastructure and applications might be autonomously generated by AI rather than primarily coded by humans. As AI evolves from an information assistant to a wealth management assistant and further into an autonomous task executor, AI Agents are poised to become significant participants in the Crypto ecosystem.
Livio also highlighted that deep AI-Crypto integration requires robust underlying infrastructure, including settlement layers for autonomous machine transactions, identity and authorization layers for AI independent identity and recognition, and incentive/disincentive layers to address fraud and misconduct. Protocols like X402 and EIP-8004 are exploring related applications, but challenges in security, governance, and ethics remain.
In practice, New Huo is actively embracing RWA to seize opportunities from AI-Crypto convergence. The group recently launched comprehensive RWA operator services and released Hong Kong's first compliant crypto asset quantitative strategy. By incorporating RWA assets, this strategy aims to offer cross-asset allocation and risk hedging opportunities, helping investors navigate volatility across different asset classes and market cycles.
Livio concluded that RWA is not only a vehicle for traditional assets to enter the on-chain world but also potential key infrastructure for AI to participate in the real economy, utilize real-world assets, and provide services to humans. As the machine economy develops, the intersection between AI and Crypto will expand, offering substantial room for innovation and growth.
