Good, KYC exists for a reason. Why does AI need to open an account, anyway? Just give it a debit card with a limit, not a whole new account and contract with a bank.

The limit of a debit card is the money in your account.

The bank would argue that an AI using your account on your behalf is fraud.

  • Those are much easier problems to solve, and surely already solved by some fintechs, than bringing cryptocurrencies to the minimum legal compliance and meeting performance requirements.

    • They don't intend to meet the legal compliance requirements. That's the reason for using cryptocurrencies — avoiding compliance.

  • My debit card has specific limits, far less than all my funds. There also exist pre-paid cards, ideal for things like this.
