Definition ∞ Autonomous Systems are self-governing entities or processes that operate without continuous human intervention. In the context of digital assets and blockchain, these systems can execute predefined rules, manage resources, and adapt to changing conditions based on programmed logic and data inputs. They are foundational to many decentralized applications, enabling automated transactions and complex protocol operations.
Context ∞ The development and implementation of autonomous systems are key topics in discussions about blockchain scalability, efficiency, and decentralization. Current debates often revolve around the security implications, the governance models for such systems, and their capacity to facilitate novel financial instruments and operational frameworks. Future developments are anticipated to see increased integration of these systems into core infrastructure, impacting how decentralized networks function and interact.
