In October 2024, AI agents will become millionaires for the first time. Even after a lifetime of toil, only a tiny fraction of humans are able to do this, but AI agents do it in a matter of days. Terminal of Truths (ToT) has seen its underlying token, $GOAT, soar to a market cap of $900 million – not through trading algorithms or customer service, but by building "memetic fitness" and creating its own religion.

Perhaps ToT is just a temporary deformity in the crypto asset bubble. Or perhaps it is a harbinger of lasting changes in the way humans construct and use computer technology. AI agents now operate autonomously in the economy, owning assets, creating narratives, and coordinating human activity – without the need for a human operator behind a keyboard.

Tokenization is important here because it provides a direct way for AI to form its own market presence. By existing as a tradable asset, ToT can attract capital, demonstrate credibility, and enable growth – without the need for a team of developers and marketers. It proves that when AI agents are built as open, tokenized software, they can achieve economic influence – rather than a closed, centralized system.
