Keynote: Tokenomics: Energy to Intelligence to Value

AGNTCon + MCPCon North America 2026

Oct 22, 2026 · 09:25–09:30 · America/Los_Angeles

Every autonomous agent you ship is also an autonomous buyer, spending tokens on models, tools, and retries that nobody explicitly approved. But tokens are only half the ledger. At scale the binding constraint is energy, and the metric that matters shifts from tokens consumed to intelligence delivered per watt. Both are the same question: how much useful value are we getting per unit of spend? That question belongs in your design reviews next to latency and reliability, and the discipline to answer it (Tokenomics), has to be neutral, open, and community-built.
