What is ERC-8211 and how does it work?

ERC-8211 is an Ethereum standard for smart batching, letting transactions reference prior steps' real outputs dynamically – swap, then deposit exact amount received, all in one signed tx.

Will ERC-8211 make DeFi easier for AI agents?

Yeah, it simplifies complex flows for agents, reducing multi-tx fails, but gas costs and MEV persist – L2s key.

Does ERC-8211 require Ethereum upgrades?

Nope, it's an app-layer ERC – devs implement now, no hard fork.
