Avalanche Treasury CEO: AI agents to strain Layer 1 block space

Bart Smith, CEO of Avalanche Treasury Co., stated that the entry of AI agents into financial markets will challenge the assumption of infinite block space. He noted that as AI activity increases, technical differences between Layer 1 networks like Avalanche, Solana, and Ethereum will become critical. Smith also predicted that traditional financial markets will shift to 24/7 trading by mid-2027, necessitating the development of new blockchain-based infrastructure.
