@_Kamalkt@timmyisagod We spotted it early and have been building in that regard.
There will be a time where it'll be stablecoins alone (agents are already a proven use case) but right now it's fiat + stablecoins unified (that's @usetsara ).
Another Ecosystem Call in Bauchi !
Builders, founders, and creatives, minds came together for conversations around ideas, opportunities, and what we're building...
Interesting to see new faces connect, ask questions, and find their place in the ecosystem...
My advice to founders in 2026: spend tokens, not headcount.
Record everything. Make your company queryable. Build self-improving loops.
Before long, AI wonโt just help you operate your company. It will make it self improving.
Don't think AI adoption, think AI transformation.
This is the biggest shift in how startups get built since cloud computing.
For founders thinking of building more agentic companies, it helps to do manual system thinking first before you start extracting workflows, skills, agents, and memory design. dont be in a hurry.
Make sure your domain knowledge is tapped out and emptied into your context ingestion phase. Thats where your true advantage is. Other things can be coded, and once thats done, it can go to zero.
The 3 biggest bets
1. Agentic-first
2. Energy Infra
3. Social institutions embed.
These are the areas with the biggest asymmetric upside in the next few years. This is my personal conviction.
One thing we decided at @usetsara early:
No complicated flows.
You should be able to:
Receive
Hold
Withdraw
Without thinking too much.
If it feels complex, we failed.

Retail investors will not use Bloomberg terminals or big dashboards; they will likely use robo-advisers (agents) to make purchase decisions.
We need to take the domain knowledge VCs have and turn it into tools retail can use to deploy capital.
To turn retail investors into smart money, we need to give them real agentic tools, not just dashboards.
Agents will play a bigger role in helping achieve the push for an internet capital market. It's not a pivot, it's a continuum.
