Imagine a banknote that could decide whether you’re allowed to spend it.

Or a coin that automatically splits itself when certain conditions are met.

Or money that flows continuously from your account without you touching it, based on rules it’s executing.

 Money that acts. Money with agency. Money that doesn’t just sit there waiting for you to use it—but executes its own instructions. 

This sounds deeply strange. Unsettling, even.
