2026 prediction season is officially here, and things are getting spicy.
A top-tier crypto VC firm just dropped their infrastructure team's hot take on what builders should be obsessing over next year. We're talking next-gen agent infrastructure that could reshape how autonomous systems interact on-chain. Plus, video world models that might bridge the gap between AI-generated content and blockchain verification.
The lineup doesn't stop there - their entire investment team across different sectors compiled their own lists. Each team's betting on different horses, from protocol innovations to consumer-facing applications that could finally crack mainstream adoption.
What's interesting? The focus has clearly shifted from pure DeFi plays to infrastructure that supports AI-crypto convergence. Seems like 2026 might be the year where intelligent agents become as common as wallet connections.

This time, ngl agent infrastructure is really different. Finally, someone is starting to seriously look at the AI + blockchain combination.

AI agents are really about to take off this time; it feels like all the major VCs are betting on this direction this year.

AI agents are really about to take off this time; it's not just the same old scam to fleece newcomers.
