Final call to USDC.e, USDT and WETH holders on GOAT Network.
@StargateFinance support ends today, October 23rd, at around 4pm UTC. If you still hold these assets on GOAT Network, bridge out at https://t.co/nxFQfPvZGv before then - transfers need time to clear, so do not leave it to the final hour.

When an AI agent spends money for someone, everything rests on what the system’s guarantees are built on. We build on Bitcoin because nothing else is as neutral or as proven.
A KOSDAQ-listed company exploring consumer payments on this foundation is the thesis in practice.
KOSDAQ-listed Square Tech has signed an MOU with @GOATNetwork to explore AI agent-powered stablecoin payments in South Korea.
The partnership will leverage GOAT Network’s Bitcoin-secured infrastructure for agentic commerce.

Thanks team and @Squaretech_HQ for making this happen! This is the first step to a much deeper collaborations globally.
Tourists are the right first users for agent payments. The spending is short-term, foreign payment rails are genuinely painful, and Korea had 10.7 million visitors in the first half of this year.
Very glad to be building this with Square Tech 🤝️️️️️️
“Wherever verifiers are weaker than provers, or outnumber them, proofs are the only arrangement in which checking keeps up.”
Bitcoin has the strongest security in the industry and the weakest execution. Ziren proving our zkEVM’s state transitions, with BitVM3 making those proofs enforceable on Bitcoin, is how the two meet.
Most medium and small businesses still can’t be found, understood, or paid by an AI agent.
GOAT Flow fixes all three.
A checkout humans use as normal and agents read directly, paying straight to your wallet, verified onchain, on infrastructure secured by Bitcoin. No code required.

On October 24th, USDC.e, USDT and WETH balances on GOAT Network will still show in wallets, but they won't be redeemable.
@StargateFinance is the only exit for these three tokens, and it closes on October 23rd.
Checking takes under a minute: open your wallet on GOAT Network and look for any of the three. Remember that tokens in pools, vaults or lending markets won't show in your wallet list - withdraw those first, then bridge at Stargate Finance.

The security work documented below continues across the GOAT Network stack, including the zkEVM and BitVM3 bridge.
The next major upgrade will be to throughput, which carries straight through to proving cost and latency on both.
Ziren has proved Ethereum mainnet blocks end to end. The paper puts numbers on the security of those proofs - more than 100 bits of interactive soundness per stage, 93.5 bits composite across a 149-proof tree - and lists the five hypotheses the end-to-end claim still rests on.
What’s about to be superseded is the stated throughput. More on that soon.

We saw this firsthand at @KBWofficial.
The live agent at our booth handled hundreds of purchases over two days, and for most visitors it was the first time an agent had ever bought something for them.
The agent side is ready.
Getting merchants ready is what GOAT Flow is for - one checkout that people and agents can both use, secured by Bitcoin.

🤖 AI agents may be ready before merchants are.
@kevinliu, co-founder & CEO of @GOATNetwork tells @graminitha1 at @KBWOfficial: “Your next customer actually is agent.”
They tried to replicate it on Bitcoin and failed. What broke?
Watch where the bottleneck really is. ⏬
Your next customer is an agent.

GOAT Flow explained like you’re five, in 60 seconds.
An order just came into Dot’s tea shop from an AI agent.
Agents can’t fill in checkout forms, and they won’t pay without proof.
GOAT Flow is the fix: a checkout agents can read, stablecoin payments that land straight in Dot’s hands, and onchain proof for both sides.

Stripe let any business take payments online. GOAT Flow lets any business take payments from AI agents.
Agents read your checkout page and pay straight to your wallet.
Setup is as simple as registering an email account - no code required.
