In the past, people in the crypto space would get a headache at the mere mention of regulation—like that awkward guest at a party everyone tries to avoid, nodding politely before quickly steering clear.

On the chain it’s built, automated bots are more than just “cool tech.” They can be audited and held accountable, and even heavily regulated institutions like banks and insurance companies can use them with confidence. Finally, someone has brought together the long-feuding “autonomy” and “compliance,” and actually managed to get them to shake hands.
