🤖 AI breaks the familiar internet model — one agent can imitate thousands of people, and content forgery becomes cheap and widespread.
a16z crypto believe that blockchains in this reality cease to be an exotic novelty and turn into basic infrastructure — they restore scarcity at the identity level and make large-scale impersonation expensive.
Decentralized identity, machine payments, and portable "passports" for AI agents allow trust, participation, and privacy to be maintained without platform control.
