There’s No Point Fixing Crypto’s Broken UI: Get Rid Of It Altogether, Says Jacobc.eth

CoinFello, founded by former MetaMask lead Jacobc.eth, proposes replacing crypto’s fragmented dApp/browser UI with self‑sovereign AI agents that execute intent-based commands (e.g., “stake my ETH”) while preserving user custody via fine‑grained spending permissions. The platform leverages new Ethereum standards to limit agent access by asset, amount and duration, and uses multi‑agent review, transaction plans and cryptographic model verification to mitigate hallucinations and malicious behavior. If adopted, this could materially lower onboarding friction, increase on‑chain activity (particularly ETH usage), and broaden DeFi uptake by non‑native users — potentially shifting finance away from traditional UI paradigms and accelerating migration of TradFi use cases onchain. Risks remain around trust, standards adoption and edge‑case security, but the design aims to keep users as ultimate gatekeepers of funds.
