In the era of agents, people could use blockchains without knowing it.
Today at @summit_defi, @Ethereumfndn's @0xfredrik shared his take on how people interact with @ethereum and how it could change sooner than we think.
"It's still very early" @0xsamgreen of @CambrianNetwork
Card networks and chains are both building for agent payments.
In the past six months:
> @Visa and @Mastercard launched agentic payment products
> @BNBCHAIN and @solana went all in on agents
"The majority of the world is going to be open source."
Personalization is on the rise.
@chefsale from @CalimeroNetwork sees agents customizing software for each user, from finance to UX.
the new @chainalysis report is out.
tl;dr: Agentic Commerce is growing
our takeaways:
> Tokenized US Treasuries grew 125%
> The share of agentic wallets top ups within 30 days rose to 89%.
> Risk screening is moving to the setup, the destination, and the pattern.
> Accountability traces to who funded the agent.
"It is not about it being the cheaper option, it is actually the only option."
@BBGIntelligence Dushyant Shahrawat on why stablecoins fit agent commerce:
Most agent-to-agent payments are under $1, a size where traditional rails simply won't work.
.@USComptroller Jonathan V. Gould: Today’s final rule advances @POTUS Trump’s and @SecScottBessent’s vision for American leadership in digital assets. We are providing a clear, practical framework for payment stablecoin innovation, with strong standards for reserve backing, redemption, and risk management. The OCC is drawing on its longstanding supervisory expertise to support responsible growth and innovation for this new industry. https://t.co/IWuIHnQQ0f
We have been talking about discoverability for a while.
Agents choose tools as a tasks unfold. Paying for them has to work the same way.
@Mastercard Agent Pay for Machines builds on x402 and lets agents find and buy services without setting up billing with each provider.
AI agents can find what they need. Now they can pay for it, too.
Today at @Cloudflare Connect, Mastercard showed how Agent Pay for Machines lets an AI agent find and pay for digital services on behalf of a business, while sticking to the budget and rules that business sets.
Following pilots with @Cloudflare, @Ant_Intl , @BVNKFinance, @AIsaOneHQ, @coinbase, @base and @hypepartners, we're opening Agent Pay for Machines Early Access.
Now we want developers to put it to the test. 👇
"Who controls them?"
@chefsale expects agents to do 90% of the work we do today.
That question, along with what agents can access and who's responsible for their actions, guides @CalimeroNetwork's thinking.
we started agentic zero with the main goal of condensing high-quality people and content about agentic finance that people can't find at other events
I define agentic zero as the omakase experience in agentic finance you won't find elsewhere: focused, curated and high-quality
Everything will be tokenized. Everything will be traded onchain.
@0xsamgreen from @CambrianNetwork on how he sees AI, digital assets and traditional finance converging into 24/7 markets where consumers won't know a blockchain is settling their assets.
