2 benefits:

* very quick finality

* it works without needing to trust coral and coral's ability to stay operating or identify who else to trust

There are some down the line benefits as well to immutable open records. Attestation mechanisms are really elegant and in the works, they make way more sense being built on top of low-level peer distributed consensuses.

I will say though, one negative aspect of crypto is that the community being stakeholders from very early on gives us pressure to accommodate stakeholders with no interest/understanding of the tech (who might have just been sold on vibes), which makes giving the right people good first impressions difficult at times. The whitepaper is kind of outdated and abstract, the github (https://github.com/Coral-Protocol/coral-server/) gives a more direct problem solving view. I suppose it'd make sense to include the community more on the direction we want to go re: realness

Thinking without idiology about it, it seems to make sense to have an autonomous agent with a wallet. A requestor could send money (in whatever form) into the wallet of the agent and would buy tokens, processing time or whatever from the agent.
