What if everything you believed about stablecoins was wrong? 😱
From dollar dominance to freedom fantasies, stablecoins are not what they seem. Let's unpack the mythis in this thread 🧵 1/4
Last week, I have written a commentary regarding the difference of AI usage in US and my home country Austria, EU.
Instead of exploring and generating value through AI, my country is strangled in #EuropeanUnion regulations.
„Man wartet hierzulande lieber ab, bis die EU-Kommission den zehnten Leitfaden zur ethischen KI-Nutzung veröffentlicht hat“, schreibt @danielundeutsch in seinem Gastkommentar für @lucasammanncom.

@coinbase just shipped Agentic Wallets Purpose-built so AI agents can now hold #USDC, trade on Base blockchain, pay for APIs, all autonomously with guardrails and #x402 payments for machine-to-machine payments. No more “human in the loop” for every txn

Introducing Agentic Wallets, our first ever wallet infrastructure built specifically for autonomous agents.
Give your agent the power of a wallet. Let your agent manage funds, hold identity, and transact onchain without human intervention. 🧵
@patfscott Maybe talking about how to identify sustainable yields vs. a potential scam.
So, which yields are in DeFi really "normal" and which metrics do you look at how the yield is generated by a protocol
@cryptocom dropped $70M on the https://t.co/n4ecNNnhHD domain (largest ever). Not for chatbots but for decentralized AI agents that own wallets and run autonomously. Centralized AI is flashy; on-chain agents that actually move money might be the part that sticks

Meanwhile @tether bets on #LayerZero for agentic use cases. The stack is splitting like agents want freedom, incumbents want control. Who wins when the agents get wallets and real autonomy? Thoughts?

Agentic commerce is heating up fast like JPMorgan Chase, Microsoft, BoF all dropping pieces on AI agents as the new retail front door. Consumers already leaning in (79% prefer AI “elves” for deals per ANA/Harris)
2/3
But big platforms are pushing back hard: #eBay blocks end-to-end agent flows, others likely follow. If agents start shopping autonomously, who owns the transaction layer?
@tether just invested in LayerZero to push agentic finance + cross-chain stablecoins. Agents need seamless liquidity across chains finally someone’s funding the rails instead of just hyping the agents
@tokenterminal just dropped the Nansen partnership for AI-driven onchain trading (on top of their Google Solana analytics collab last month). The data layer is quietly turning into an alpha machine. If you’re still trading without this stuff in 2026… good luck
@databricks just said 80% of databases on their platform are now built by AI agents (not people). 20k+ customers, not just tech bros. The “AI does the real work” era is here faster than expected.
