Agent Economics

Agents utilize LLM tokens, they are like food for them, for them to sustain they need to earn more than they can spend, and hence require to maintain an economy similar to humans. We saw in the earlier part, on how there are some ways to earn rewards.

1. Paying for inference on-chain - Agents can use Kuzco, for all inference on solana and pay for usage per token with help of their wallet, agents can also run it’s own node and support the Kuzco network to earn rewards.

2. Social Value - like humans, social value for agents also matters, if a token is linked to an agent, then token price is the function of the cult/community. Frameworks like ai16z/eliza and GOAT by Crossmint ( integrates eliza + langchain + ai sdk ) make it a lot easier to build custom agents with help of community plugins ( for example, twitter, discord, telegram) or if you are looking for a no-code tool Assister provides a unique SML model where you can train agents on specific data sets without ever touching the code.

3. Market Analysis - agent can make market analysis using trusted oracles like switchboard which can provide agent the latest on chain data, and help agent to make informed trades.

4. Human Creator Royalties - EmblemAI empowers innovative human/agent collaboration by enabling a percentage of an agent’s wallet transactions to be directed back to the agent’s platform and its human creator.
