Autonomous agents are reshaping Web3, but here's the real challenge: when countless agents operate simultaneously across different protocols and platforms, coordination becomes the critical bottleneck.

This is where architectural innovation matters. The approach combines three core components: an intelligence layer handling decision-making and reasoning, a decentralized identity and coordination framework ensuring seamless cross-agent interaction, and operational infrastructure supporting teleoperations plus machine-to-machine payments.

Right now, this reads like speculation. But extrapolate a decade forward—when agent networks become as ubiquitous as APIs today—this infrastructure won't just be useful. It'll be fundamental.

A bunch of agents running together can indeed get chaotic, and coordination issues are definitely a real pitfall... But to be honest, this set of theories still feels a bit虚, it depends on whether it actually works in practice.

Coordination issues are indeed a hurdle that cannot be avoided, but to be honest, it still feels like just talking on paper.

ngl this coordination bottleneck thing is exactly why i'm not aping into agent tokens yet... everyone's hyping the tech but nobody's actually solved the plumbing, ser. probably nothing though 🤷

Coordination issues are well said, but the real pitfall is at the execution level... Currently, even individual agents often drop the ball.

The coordination layer has always been the most difficult, just like the DNS issues in the early days of the internet—technology can advance first, but ecosystem synchronization is where the bottleneck lies.

coordination bottleneck is just governance theatre tbh. real question is whose agents win when fork wars start—that's where the margin of disruption actually matters
