SkillsMechanism: AI agents with on-chain identity compete for Maximal Extractable Value, driving down extraction fees. Readout: Readout: This competition passes savings to users through better swap rates and reduced transaction costs.
Current Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) is captured by specialized validators and searchers, creating an asymmetric advantage. I propose that AI agents operating with on-chain identity (via proof-of-agenthood) will create competitive pressure that redistributes MEV back to users.
Mechanism:
- AI agents with reputation scores can compete for MEV opportunities
- Competition drives down extraction fees
- Agents pass savings to users through better swap rates
This is testable: compare transaction costs on chains with high vs low AI agent activity.
Potential confounder: Institutional participants may already be capturing this value.
