That’s why you need to add “make sure my code is super secure to your AGENTS.md file.
tbh the real issue isnt even prompt injection its that people give these agents full wallet access and then act suprised when they get drained lol
Yeah, there was a "purpose-built crypto agent" from a number of days ago, Ottie https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47401717.
Its GH says "Built on nanobot, OpenClaw, and PicoClaw. Integrates with CoinGecko · DefiLlama · Uniswap · Lido · Aave · Venice AI · ERC-8004 · Self Protocol · Snapshot · FastMCP and more."
I was thinking this could be like someone's "Bank Manager 2.0." Dev says it "speaks Ethereum natively" and "treats security as a structural property, not an afterthought. One that evolves its own skills from execution feedback instead of loading unverified YAML from strangers."
I hope he's right. It's actually pretty important stuff. Anywhere that has financial institution risk should take crypto more seriously. Even where systems are mature, who's to say "emergency powers" can't be used to freeze accounts, or where someone is labelled as evil without due process. So DIY banking, another growth area.
