Looks like @EmanAbio has nailed the need for programmable, decentralized secrets in @a16zcrypto's latest post. This is live today with @LitProtocol where the signing and encryption service are powering 30m+ encrypted pieces of data and nearly half a billion dollars in assets
It's time for our annual big ideas. Here are 17 things that various a16z crypto partners (plus a few guest contributors) are excited about for what’s ahead in 2026. On topics ranging from agents and AI; stablecoins, tokenization, and finance; privacy and security; to prediction

The internet’s control layer has been rewritten. Programmable threshold cryptography (Lit Protocol) + smart account embedded policies (@HeyVincentAI ) remove custodial control entirely.

Self-custodial automation is the next frontier of crypto. Allocators can lend user funds directly from wallets into DeFi, instead of taking on custody with vaults.
Self-custodial automation working directly from wallets is here 🙌 This system is compatible with all embedded wallets, including @privy_io, @crossmint, @CoinbaseDev, and @thirdweb for automating all of DeFi! https://t.co/rVlXTDSGla

It's clear that @GeniusTerminal is the home for trading crypto. All DeFi across all chains in one place, that's so genius.
Check the thread to hear from @GeniusTerminal cofounder @brihubrihu on how they use Lit Protocol to create the ultimate terminal for crypto trading.

Privacy is on the critical path for AGI utopia Need to get privacy preserving work shipped and iterated upon with urgency. Private payments is just the start, so much more exciting things to come after

🎉 We @EmblemVault came up with a way to use an Emblem Vault as a drop in replacement for all web3 libraries, anywhere that uses a private key, can now use a vault to sign txs within our @LitProtocol infra. First thing I did was use a vault to pay for x402 gated @AgentHustleAI
