Blockchain and AI Agents
Discover how blockchains provide the financial rails, verification layer, and guardrails that autonomous AI systems lack. Learn to equip LLMs with wallets, enforce deterministic execution, and verify off-chain intelligence.
Like Duolingo, but for Blockchain and AI Agents. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.
A short one: 12 levels across 2 sections, about 24 minutes end to end, roughly 5 days at five minutes a day. It moves through Giving Models Economic Agency and Verifying Intelligence and Decentralizing Compute. It assumes you already know the basics.

Key ideas in Blockchain and AI Agents
- Traditional banking rails require human identity verification and block automated programmatic cards.
- Smart contract wallets let autonomous code hold and spend native digital assets without bank approval.
- Account abstraction allows programmable execution logic directly inside the agent's on-chain account.
- LLMs act probabilistically and can loop into hallucinated bulk transaction generation.
- Contract-level spending caps enforce hard financial stops that the model cannot override.
- Allowlists ensure an LLM can only interact with verified recipient addresses and protocols.
- Crypto micropayments allow sub-cent value transfers for single model inference calls.
- On-chain settlement lets heterogeneous AI agents trade computational services permissionlessly.
- Agent economies eliminate bilateral subscription billing contracts between software vendors.
- Exposing raw private keys to LLM runtime memory allows prompt leaks via indirect injection.
- Untrusted document inputs can manipulate tool-calling arguments to siphon wallet balances.
- Keys must be segregated from model context using external isolated signing vaults.
- Session keys are temporary cryptographic key pairs authorized by an owner for a set duration.
- Smart contracts restrict session keys to interact only with specific methods and contracts.
- Once a session key expires, transactions signed by it are rejected on-chain without human action.
- Blockchain nodes must reach an identical resulting state from identical transaction inputs
You've tried the other tabs
Thirty open tabs. Four facts you actually kept.
You watched. You nodded. By Sunday it was gone.
One answer, then back to scrolling.
Eight weeks. You meant to finish. You didn't.
Tomo gives Blockchain and AI Agents the Duolingo treatment: levels, streaks, and quick quizzes that test what you just learned. That game loop is what the tabs above never had, so it's the one you actually finish.
Here's what playing it feels like
A real question from this course. Take your best guess.
Why give your AI agent a smart contract wallet instead of trying to hook it to a bank?
