Agentic MEV Day [SBC]

Agentic MEV Day is a highly curated shared experience on a simple but existential question: what happens when AI agents coordinate on our behalf? As agents are moving well beyond chat and into execution, they are starting to search, retrieve, route, negotiate, pay, trade, summarize, and act across systems. Each of those actions creates an information decision. The temporary oligarchical market structure is in disequilibrium with alternative approaches to intelligence, and the emergence of local AI movement bring to light the glaring questions of coordination across trust boundaries. What should an agent reveal, what should it keep private, what should it forget, and what should it hand off to another human, model, market, or institution? This event centers on agentic coordination under partial disclosure, where sharing enough to get things done can also create openings for extraction, manipulation, or loss of control. Drawing from economic security and information security research of MEV in blockchains, Agentic MEV looks at what happens when the thing being routed is not only a transaction, but also a search query, tool call, private memory, payment intent, research hypothesis, or execution path. The challenge is not just technical performance. It is how agents represent human goals when those goals differ, conflict, or become legible to systems that can exploit them. A helpful agent can still narrow options, distort recall, or quietly shape outcomes by deciding what never gets surfaced in the first place. The day will bring together builders, researchers, investors, and operators working across AI, crypto, privacy, security, payments, infrastructure, and market design. Expect a mix of opening framing, panel discussions, whiteboarding, research sprints, live debate, demos, and synthesis across parallel tracks. Conversations will explore adversarial agent markets, agent access and legitimacy, delegation across trust boundaries, private search and routing, and how information turns into attribution, pricing power, or edge. If you are thinking seriously about multi-agent systems, model routing, private memory, web access, payment rails, coordination protocols, or the hidden consequences of delegation, this will be a strong room to test ideas and sharpen them. The goal is to leave with clearer design principles, sharper disagreements, and a better shared understanding what needs to be built. Agenda (Self-Updating...) Please note this is a highly interactive experience for those fundamentally intellectually curious, yet action-oriented high-agency humans (with their agents) who want to effect change in the world we live in. The detailed agenda block will be continuously updated based on confirmed attendees' domain expertise as well as declared and revealed preferences. 11:00am · Doors open Sign-in games around agency and trust, light lunch, human routing. 12:00pm · Opening frame What is MEV? What is Agentic MEV? A grounding session for AI, crypto, privacy, markets, philanthropy, and investing audiences. 12:30pm · Shared problem map Reveal · withhold · forget · route What should an agent show, hide, remember, erase, or pass to someone else? 1:00–5:00pm · Parallel tracks Five rooms run in parallel. Participants move between salons, whiteboards, research sprints, debates, roasts, and demos. 5:00–6:00pm · Synthesis Each track returns with: one design principle one open disagreement one prototype or research question one failure mode one thing we should avoid building 6:00pm onward · Dinner salons (and maybe sauna?) Follow-up conversations for those who are available and into the temperature meme.
