Why isn’t full autonomy ideal for crypto AI agents?

Full autonomy might sound powerful, but it introduces serious risks. Experts from CoinFello argue that giving agents unrestricted control over wallets and assets can lead to unintended or even dangerous actions.

Instead, the safer model is “delegation by constraint.” This means limiting what an agent can do — such as restricting specific tokens, transaction sizes, or time windows. Much like setting a credit limit, these boundaries ensure the agent can act efficiently without exposing users to unnecessary risk.
