Maelstrom CIO and BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes shared at Korea Blockchain Week 2026 that currently, no cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin or stablecoins, can truly serve as the 'native currency' for AI Agents. He believes the currency used by Agents should be able to directly and transparently exchange for the computational power they need to survive. Arthur Hayes is pushing a new project called Flop Network, aiming to establish a spot market and payment network for computational power tailored to AI Agents, with FLOP as the native currency. The project plans to connect Agents with GPU computational power providers through verifiable AI inference tasks. The project is still in its early stages.
