400 Takip Edilen1.1M Takipçiler

Actually @brian_armstrong we ran some numbers.
The ratio right now is 25,042 human payments for every 1 agentic payment. That looks like agents are irrelevant.
But zoom out on the curve.
6 months ago agentic payments were essentially zero. Now x402 is doing 99,834 transactions in 24 hours at $70.3K volume. That's from a standing start.
The infrastructure being built tells you where this goes: Stripe launched agent-native payment APIs. Visa is piloting AI agent transaction authorization. Mastercard just acquired BVNK for $1.8B to build stablecoin payment rails.
Coinbase built x402 around HTTP status code 402, literally the "Payment Required" code that's been reserved and unused since the internet was invented.
It was always meant for machine payments. Took 30 years to have a use case.
The unlock isn't volume. It's that agents operate 24/7 with no friction. A human makes maybe 3-5 payments a day.
An AI agent can make thousands per hour. When agent count crosses a threshold, the ratio flips overnight, not gradually.
There are currently ~400M crypto wallets globally. If even 1% of AI agents deployed in 2026 get wallets, that's millions of new "users" that never sleep, never churn, and transact every second.
@coinbase's next 100M customers won't be human.

How long until agentic payments overtake human payments?

@Altcoinbuzzio There are dozens of other networks trying to capture the real world asset narrative right now. Why is this specific chain any different?
English

18,000,000 ACTIVE WALLETS JUST PERMANENTLY SECURED THEIR POSITION ON THE BASE LAYER.
Plume Network completely dominated their testing phase to capture massive retail and institutional attention.
They structurally locked down exactly 180 protocol partnerships before the main network even officially launches.
The heavy tokenization narrative is systematically consolidating directly onto this specific compliant chain.
How heavily are you weighting the exact network that completely mathematically destroyed the testing phase?

@Altcoinbuzzio Traditional banks literally refuse to touch a decentralized network unless OpenZeppelin has completely verified the base layer.
English

TRILLIONS IN FUTURE ON CHAIN VALUE JUST SECURED ITS ABSOLUTE FOUNDATION.
OpenZeppelin deployed their entire industry standard contract library directly onto the Sui base layer today.
They are systematically providing the absolute structural security that massive institutional treasuries mathematically demand.
You cannot route heavy global wealth through a decentralized network without this exact level of permanent mathematical protection.
