Opinion: AI Agent Financial Market Annual Revenue Up for Grabs Could Reach $4 Trillion by 2035

Odaily News: Joseph Chalom, CEO of Ethereum treasury company SharpLink, stated in a post that the convergence of stablecoins, tokenized real-world assets, DeFi, and AI Agents will reshape the financial industry. His team's model estimates that by 2030, more than $1 trillion in annual revenue in the global financial services industry will become the target of competition among market participants, growing to $4 trillion per year by 2035. By driving down fees, AI Agents are expected to save investors $350 billion and $1.4 trillion annually.

Joseph Chalom also noted that hundreds of millions of stablecoin payments between Agents have already been settled through chains such as Base and Solana, and that more than 10,000 Agents have registered within 10 weeks of the launch of ERC-8004, Ethereum's trustless Agent registration protocol.
