In short
Machines are starting to earn money on their own: radios, sensors, GPUs, and software agents that bill for their own work. Almost nobody outside crypto can own any of it, because buying in means four blockchains, several wallets and hours of research per asset.
This paper explains what we built about that, and how we decide what goes in.
Sections 11 and 12 set out what we haven't built yet and what can go wrong. Read those before you buy anything.
The shift
Machines and software now do a growing share of paid work, and they are already earning from it.
Wireless networks run on hardware in strangers' homes. Mapping networks are built from sensors on rooftops. AI models train and answer on rented GPUs. Autonomous agents hold their own wallets, buy their own compute and bill for the jobs they finish. None of this is a forecast. All of it is running today.
As that spreads, income moves from the person doing the task to whoever owns the thing doing the task. Learning the tools keeps you employable. Owning them is what compounds.
That is the case for holding a piece of the machine economy. The rest of this paper is about why almost nobody can, and what we built about it.
Why nobody can buy in
The machine economy is investable in theory and close to unreachable in practice unless you are already deep in crypto. Four reasons.
It is scattered. The assets live on blockchains that do not talk to each other. Buying four of them means four systems, a bridge between them, and several wallets. Most people stop at step one.
Names are not unique. Anyone can create a token with any name. Searching a well known project by its ticker routinely returns a meme coin, a scam, and a lookalike trading more heavily than the real thing. Send money to the wrong one and it is gone. No support line, no chargeback.
The quoted price is not your price. These markets are small. A screen price assumes a tiny trade. Buy a real position and you move the price against yourself, sometimes badly. Nothing warns you.
Research is a full time job. Which networks have paying customers, and which are paying their own users in freshly printed tokens? Hours per asset, and the answers keep changing.
So the choice is to watch from outside, or buy whatever was trending that week. Neither of those is investing.
What Frypto does
Frypto does not build the robots. We do the research, turn it into a small number of investable baskets, and make buying one as simple as buying anything else online.
Three jobs, in order.
- We research. Quantitative and qualitative. Hard filters on tradability come first, followed by human judgement on whether a network actually earns its money.
- We package. The survivors become a handful of themed baskets with published weights and a written reason for every holding. No hidden selection, no unexplained rankings.
- We execute. One confirmation buys every holding in a basket at its target weight, across whichever blockchains they live on. Every cost is shown before you confirm. You never see a bridge, a swap screen or a seed phrase.
What you get out of it is a position in the machine economy that you could not have assembled yourself in an afternoon, held in a wallet that belongs to you.
What you can buy today
Three baskets. Each is a fixed set of holdings at fixed weights, bought in one transaction. Screened 6 September 2026.
Physical Networks
Networks built from real hardware installed in the world. Rises if more hardware gets deployed and more customers pay to use it.
- HeliumWireless coverage from hotspots in homes and businesses 40%
- GEODNETPrecise GPS correction from rooftop receivers 35%
- NosanaRents out spare GPUs for AI jobs 25%
Machine Intelligence
The compute and model layer that AI runs on. Rises if demand for training and inference keeps growing.
- BittensorA market that pays AI models for useful output 35%
- RenderRents out spare GPUs for rendering and AI 35%
- ASI AllianceMerged group building AI agent and model marketplaces 30%
Autonomous Core
A mix of both, weighted toward the largest and longest running holdings. The one to pick if you want a single position rather than a choice.
- HeliumWireless coverage from home hotspots 30%
- VirtualsPlatform for AI agents that hold wallets and earn 25%
- BittensorA market that pays AI models for useful output 25%
- RenderRents out spare GPUs for rendering and AI 20%
Three is a small shelf, and that is the honest output of the filters rather than a soft launch. We would rather offer three baskets that can actually be bought and sold than ten padded with names that cannot.
Every holding carries a written reason and, where it deserves one, a written warning.
How it works for you
The whole point is that this part is boring. No seed phrase, no bridge, no exchange account, no crypto vocabulary.
- Sign in with an email addressYour wallets are created in the background. Nothing to install, nothing to write down.
- Add money with a card or bank transferOrdinary money in, through a regulated payment provider, in a range of currencies including rupees. It converts to USDC, a dollar stablecoin, and lands in your own wallet rather than in an account we control.
- Pick a basket and an amountYou see the holdings, the weights, the reasoning, and what you will actually receive after costs. From twenty five dollars.
- Confirm onceEvery holding is bought across every chain involved. This is the step that would otherwise have taken you an afternoon and several wallets.
- Watch it, or take itPositions are read straight off the blockchains. Export your key whenever you like, or send tokens out to any wallet you control.
Where you are matters. Rules, taxes and reporting duties on assets like these differ sharply by country, and in several markets the tax treatment of crypto gains is materially worse than for shares or funds. We do not give tax advice and we do not file anything on your behalf. Check your own position before you buy.
How we pick
Every candidate is reviewed by hand against the same framework, so that two assets can actually be compared.
We gather eight families of evidence: what the network earns, whether that money comes from customers or from freshly printed tokens, what the market is paying for those earnings, network activity, token supply and unlocks, real tradability, who funded it, and how long it has actually been running.
One rule is not a judgement call. A token must trade more than $100,000 a day on decentralised exchanges, measured on the venues a purchase can actually route through rather than on total reported volume, or it is out however good the story is. A position you cannot exit is not an investment.
After that, a person decides. Weight follows the thinner of two things, market depth and operating history, and anything live for under two years is capped at 25%. Every holding carries a written reason, a dated set of figures, and a warning where it deserves one.
We publish the criteria behind each basket, the evidence considered for each holding, and the limits used to control concentration and liquidity risk.
Who holds your assets
When you buy through a centralised platform, you usually do not receive the asset. You receive a claim on a company.
An exchange or a broker or an investing app buys it, holds it on its own balance sheet, and gives you a number in an account screen. That number is only as good as the company. When one of those fails, customers discover they were unsecured creditors standing in a queue.
Frypto is not built that way, and could not be even if we wanted to.
Centralised platform
- Holds the assets on its own balance sheet
- You own a claim against the company
- Your balance is a number in their database
- Withdrawals can be frozen or queued
- If the company fails, you are a creditor
Frypto
- Tokens go to a wallet created for you
- You own the actual asset on the blockchain
- Your balance is read from the chain itself
- Export your key and leave at any moment
- If Frypto disappears, your holdings do not
The one caveat, stated plainly. To make a one tap purchase possible, our server signs transactions on your behalf. That means our systems can move funds from your wallet without a separate signature from you. It is the trade we made for a product that works in one tap instead of twelve. The daily limits and the new address hold in section 8 exist specifically to bound that risk, and exporting your key is always available to anyone who would rather not take it.
If those keys were ever compromised. A key compromise can result in loss. The controls described here are designed to reduce the speed and size of an unauthorized transfer; they do not make crypto assets risk-free or insured.
You own your keys. Signing in with an email address creates two wallets for you, one for Ethereum and Base and one for Solana. There is no seed phrase to write down. The Export key button gives you control of your private key, so those wallets can work in any compatible app, with or without us.
We have no omnibus account, no pooled customer wallet, and nothing to lend out. There is nothing on our balance sheet to lose.
What protects you
| Protection | What it does |
|---|---|
| Addresses fixed in advance | Every token address is written into the server and verified against the live blockchain at start up. If a symbol or decimal place does not match, the server refuses to sell you anything at all. Nothing is ever found by searching a name. |
| Price impact cap | Checked when you get a quote and again in the instant before signing. A holding that has moved past the cap is refused rather than filled. |
| Spending limits | Recorded in a single database transaction, so two purchases at once cannot both slip past a limit only one should. |
| Withdrawal limits | The first send to any new address is held. If our keys were ever stolen, a thief could not move your money somewhere new before you noticed. Sends to an address you have used before go through immediately. |
| Address checking | A withdrawal address is validated for the correct blockchain before your balance is even read. Sending a Solana token to an Ethereum address destroys it, and that is the one mistake nobody can reverse. |
| Honest valuations | Your holdings are priced by quoting a real sale back to dollars, not by a mid market number you could never actually get. The cost of getting out is already inside the figure you see. |
| What none of this protects | Every control above governs how a trade executes. None of them protects against the asset simply falling in value, which is the most likely way you lose money here. |
The thresholds behind these controls are collected in numbers in one place.
What this costs
Everything you pay, in one place, before you get to the risks.
| Cost | What it is |
|---|---|
| Frypto's fee | Shown in your quote before you confirm a purchase. |
| Payment provider fee | Shown before payment and may vary by funding method and location. |
| Blockchain transaction costs | Included in the purchase quote before confirmation. |
| Spread and price impact | Capped at 2.5% per holding. The real figure appears in your quote before you confirm, and the cost of getting out is already inside the value you see afterwards. |
Your quote is the example that matters. Before you confirm, you see the amount invested, every applicable cost, and the expected tokens you will receive. Quotes move with markets and are not guaranteed until the transaction executes.
How we make money. Frypto earns a disclosed service fee when a purchase is completed.
What we are adding
The baskets are the first product, not the whole idea. The goal is one place where a person can own the productive parts of the autonomous economy, which means going well past liquid tokens.
These are future product categories, not current products or commitments. They are included to show the direction of the platform, not to announce partnerships or availability.
| What | Why it matters | |
|---|---|---|
| Selling back to dollarsIn the app | Right now you can buy, export your keys and send tokens out, but you cannot close a position without leaving. This is the next thing being built. | Next |
| Tokenised real world assetsFuture category | Treasuries, equities, commodities and credit in regulated wrappers, bought the same way as a basket and held in the same wallet. The point is ballast: one part of a portfolio that does not move when crypto does. Requires identity checks, so it changes what we have to ask you for. | Planned |
| Real business cashflowFuture category | A share of operating companies that already earn revenue, priced on what they take rather than on sentiment. We will publish who is on the other side of every deal and what happens if they stop paying, because a fixed return on a private business is a credit claim rather than a market price. | Planned |
| Machine networks and roboticsFuture category | Owning one network directly instead of a basket: sensor fleets, robot fleets, charging grids, energy meters. Most of these cannot clear our liquidity floor today, so this needs a way in that is not an exchange trade. | Planned |
| AI agentsFuture category | Autonomous agents now hold wallets, payment cards and revenue. This is owning a specific agent and what it earns, rather than the two or three whose tokens happen to trade deeply. | Planned |
No dates anywhere on this list. A date here would be a guess dressed up as a commitment.
What is missing
Things we intend to build. These should stop being true.
- You cannot sell inside the app. Turning holdings into cash means sending them somewhere else and selling there, which routes every exit through the single irreversible action in the product.
- There is no rebalancing. Weights drift as prices move and nothing corrects them.
- There is no cash withdrawal. Money can come in from a bank account. It cannot yet go back to one.
- Storage is not covered. Filecoin, Arweave and Sia settle on chains we cannot route through, so we leave the category out rather than fake it.
Risks
Things that will still be true when everything above is built. Plainly, and without softening.
- You can lose everything. These are small, young, volatile assets. Several have moved more than 90% in a single week. Size your position accordingly.
- The baskets are our opinion. They are constructions of ours. Nobody qualified has reviewed them, and nothing here is investment advice.
- Everything here is still crypto. The baskets all move together in a downturn. The real world assets in section 10 are the answer to that, and they are not built yet.
- Liquidity can vanish. A token that clears the floor today may not tomorrow. Our checks refuse a bad fill, but they cannot conjure a buyer.
- Purchases cannot be reversed. Every one spends real money on a live network. There is no chargeback.
- Our signing keys are a single point of failure. See section 7. The limits bound the damage, they do not remove it.
- Smart contracts can fail. Your holdings depend on code written by other people, and so does the software that buys them.
- Rules can change. This is a young category and regulation is unsettled in most countries.
Numbers in one place
Every threshold in the product, together, so you do not have to hunt for them.
Glossary
Sixteen terms this paper uses, in plain language.

- Stablecoin
- A token designed to hold a fixed value, usually one dollar.
- USDC
- The dollar stablecoin we convert your money into.
- Bridge
- A tool for moving assets between blockchains. Frequently the weak point in a transaction.

- Routing
- Which venues a purchase passes through to get filled.
- Price impact
- How much your own trade moves the price against you.
