Our recent @lablabai hackathon with @GoogleDeepMind brought in 227 submissions exploring what becomes possible when AI agents, APIs, content, and real-world services can all be monetized with sub-cent USDC payments on Arc.
What stood out across the builds:
→ Agent-to-agent payments and autonomous economic activity
→ Pay-per-call APIs, content, and intelligence
→ Real-time settlement for trading, oracle, and security workflows
→ New monetization models for creators, researchers, and developers
The quality and breadth of submissions made it clear that programmable dollars and nanopayments are unlocking new internet business models.
Congrats to the winners below.
