Key Takeaways:
Nansen predicts billions of AI agents will become the default crypto investment vehicle by 2028. The forecast compares the shift to how software engineers abandoned manual coding for automated pipelines. Nansen says the change will fundamentally reshape how liquidity moves across decentralized finance ( DeFi) markets. From Manual to Agent-DrivenThe comparison to software engineering is instructive, as just a decade ago, most development teams wrote and deployed code through largely manual processes. Today, continuous integration, automated testing, and deployment pipelines handle the majority of that work autonomously.
Nansen is arguing that portfolio management is about to undergo an equivalent transformation, that too on a compressed timeline (all driven by the rapid advancement of large language models and on-chain automation tools).
