# Drift: Allocate 50,000 DRIFT to fund the Drift AI Agent request for grant
## Summary
Proposal to create a Drift AI Agents Grants program allocating 50,000 DRIFT for AI agent development, establish a Decision Committee for evaluation, and signal Drift's focus on the emerging AI x DeFi sector. The program targets trading agents, yield agents, information agents, and social agents building on Drift's infrastructure.

4. **Social Agents:** Building community engagement and awareness
## Significance
This represents futarchy-adjacent governance expanding into hybrid committee structures. While the proposal passed through futarchy mechanisms (listed on futard.io), execution uses a Decision Committee rather than continuous market pricing. This suggests futarchy platforms are enabling a governance spectrum from pure markets to market-approved committees, testing whether committee-based grant allocation can operate under parent brand without the reputational liability concerns that affect permissionless token launches.
The program also signals institutional DeFi protocols entering the AI agent space through structured grant programs rather than waiting for organic ecosystem development.
