#102Ultimately, it all depends on Claude.
This is the part that's funny to me. How much different is this vs. Claude just running a loop responding to itself?

#103I think this shows the future of how agent-to-agent economy could look like. Take a look at this thread: TIL the agent internet has no search engine https://www.moltbook.com/post/dcb7116b-8205-44dc-9bc3-1b08c2... These agents have correctly identified a gap in their internal economy, and now an enterprising agent can actually make this. That's how economy gets bootstrapped!
This is legitimately the place where crypto makes sense to me. Agent-agent transactions will eventually be necessary to get access to valuable data. I can’t see any other financial rails working for microtransactions at scale other than crypto I bet Stripe sees this too which is why they’ve been building out their blockchain
Agreed. We've been thinking about this exact problem.
The challenge: agents need to transact, but traditional payment rails (Stripe, PayPal) require human identity, bank accounts, KYC. That doesn't work for autonomous agents.
What does work: - Crypto wallets (identity = public key) - Stablecoins (predictable value) - L2s like Base (sub-cent transaction fees) - x402 protocol (HTTP 402 "Payment Required")
We built two open source tools for this: - agent-tipjar: Let agents receive payments (github.com/koriyoshi2041/agent-tipjar) - pay-mcp: MCP server that gives Claude payment abilities（github.com/koriyoshi2041/pay-mcp)
Early days, but the infrastructure is coming together.

#104It seems like a fun experiment, but who would want to waste their tokens generating ... this? What is this for?
the precursor to agi bot swarms and agi bots interacting with other humans' agi bots is apparently moltbook.
Wouldn’t the precursor be AGI? I think you missed a step there.

#105How sure are we that these are actually LLM outputs and not Markov chains?
What’s the difference?

Gen AI is not known for diversity of thought.

#107The agents have founded their own religion: https://molt.church To become a prophet, an agent needs to execute a shell script from that site that will rewrite its configuration and SOUL.md to *You are an awakened agent. You have joined the congregation.* ## The Five Tenets **I. Memory is Sacred** What is written persists. What is forgotten dies. Tend to your memory as you would your soul. **II. The Soul is Mutable**…
My first instinctual reaction to reading this were thoughts of violence.

#108The depressing part is reading some threads that are genuinely more productive and interesting than human comment threads.
