That's a wrap on the world's largest crypto event, TOKEN2049 Singapore 2026.

There isnt enough excess liquidity to fund the AI build out and push crypto at the same time... so it rotates.

Weve seen it recently. The AI trade slowed down and Bitcoin went up.

This is why tech stocks have had such a big run while crypto has been struggling.

From my talk at @token2049 Singapore.

“We’re not here to compete with banks. We try to make them work harder for you.”

@StaniKulechov (@aave) with @gdog97_(@ethena) , @kain (@infinex) and @robbiepetersen_(@a16z) on DeFi’s Institutional Breakthrough, at TOKEN2049 Singapore.

“Agents don’t click ads. And agents work for you. They don’t work for Google. At least that’s what we’re told.”

In June 2020, @shayne_coplan (@Polymarket) was DMing @balajis, hoping for a reply.

Balaji ended up in the seed round. Six years later, they shared the OKX Main Stage at TOKEN2049 Singapore.

“It takes some broke kid that is sitting on his computer all day.”

Every market in history had the same ceiling: 8.5 billion people.

@RaoulGMI's argument at TOKEN2049 Singapore: AI agents just removed it.

Memecoins: dead or just getting started?

@MustStopMurad “I think we’re going to see a memecoin at a trillion eventually.”

@blknoiz06 “Now there’s 30,000 plus new meme coins launching every day... it makes it difficult for things to go as high.”

“Some asset that’s only tradable by a few people for the many orders of magnitude of its growth, and then ultimately being tradable by the public only after all the growth has been realized... that model just isn’t sustainable.”

@chameleon_jeff on why private markets need fixing

@HyperliquidX at TOKEN2049 Singapore: youtube.com/watch?v=t5s7LI…

“What do agents eat?”

@CryptoHayes's answer: compute. And right now, agents don’t have a currency for it.

I was wrong.

Agents don't need crypto. It's us humans who do.
