Algorand is now fully supported in x402. This matters because x402 is focused on a simple but important idea: Payments should become a native function of the internet. AI agents need to pay for services. Applications need to charge programmatically. APIs need direct monetization. @Algorand is now part of that infrastructure. x402, introduced by @coinbase, is an internet-native payment protocol based on HTTP 402 Payment Required. Instead of sending users through traditional checkout flows, x402 allows payments to happen directly at the request level. This enables use cases such as pay-per-API, pay-per-data, micropayments and agent-to-agent payments. For Algorand, the integration is relevant because the network is now supported across x402 facilitators, demo pages and official packages. It also supports $USDC on Algorand and other ASAs. That makes Algorand more accessible for developers building payment flows that require fast settlement, low transaction costs and reliable execution. The AI angle is especially important. If AI agents are expected to interact with APIs, purchase data, pay for compute or access digital services, they need payment rails that can operate automatically. Manual checkout pages and card-based flows were not designed for autonomous software. Programmable payments were. This places Algorand inside an emerging standard for internet-native payments. For developers, the value is practical: monetized APIs, payment-enabled applications, autonomous agent transactions and stablecoin-based settlement. The internet is moving toward embedded payments. Algorand is now part of that architecture. 👉🏻 docs.x402.org/core-concepts/…

Your blockchain name just became a real domain. V3+ NFDs now have native DNS. Your yourname.algo resolves as yourname.algo.xyz, from any browser, any email client, any DNS-aware app on the planet. No plugins. No gateways. Just DNS. 🧵👇

Your Algorand name now works in any browser. No plugins. No gateways. @NFDomains just shipped native DNS + did:nfd. One NFD gives you: → A real browsable domain → A DID with verified socials → Multiple linked wallets → Email → DNS records stored on-chain - your keys, your records All auto-populated. No migration. No extra steps. Built on @Algorand by @TxnLab.

The IMF just released a landmark report on the future of global finance. Their tokenized finance wishlist: ☑ Atomic settlement ☑ Programmable compliance ☑ Fractional ownership Algorand has had all of this and more, from day one.

@GoPlausible @Algorand @coinbase @x402Foundation x402 will be huge on Algorand!

Looking forward to this discussion with Silvio!

Google Quantum AI just published a landmark paper on quantum threats to every major blockchain. Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, no blockchain receives more coverage than Algorand, cited for live post-quantum deployments across signatures, state proofs, key rotation, and smart contracts. The alarm has been sounded. @Algorand has been answering it for years.

@KayBlockchain 👏👏

🧩 I launched my new eCom business 2 days ago. And the first sale is already in. It’s an amazing feeling to build something for yourself, work from anywhere, and sell a 100% natural product that truly helps people. Not gonna lie, I love it.

@ganainmtech Happy Bday !

Gm! I turned 22 yesterday, lets see what this year has in store for me 💪 Time to lock in, times 2 🙌

The next era of payments on the internet might look like this.. 📢 Think AI agents paying for APIs, data marketplaces, or pay-per-request services 📊 No checkout page ✅ No payment processor ✅ Just an HTTP 402 Payment Required and settlement on #Algorand 👇 Read more! The example API was simple: GET /weather But the server requires a $0.001 USDC payment before returning the data. Here’s the setup I ran locally 👇 Client A small TypeScript script that requests the API and builds/signs the payment Resource server The API itself. It defines the payment requirement for /weather Facilitator A service that verifies the payment, sponsors the transaction fee, and settles the atomic transaction group on Algorand The simplified flow looks like this: Client → Resource Server → Facilitator → Algorand Once the payment settles, the API response is returned 🎉 The logs from the facilitator show the final step: Would you like to see a tutorial so you can replicate this process? LMK!!

We're about to enter an economic blackhole because of AI and the dominoes are just starting to fall. AI is going to make labor cheaper. When labor gets cheaper, people have less money. When people have less money, consumer goods fall. When goods fall, so do profits. Even for the companies that sparked this cycle. On the flip side, one person can now ship what used to take a team of 20. YOU are a software company. The code, the marketing, the design. You can do all of it, learn all of it in a weekend. And execute faster than ever. Software companies are in trouble, but the individual has never been more powerful. So the question is...what are you building this weekend?

Digital Identity and Verifiable Credentials for Agentic Systems is a must. Combining them with Authentication and Authorization is a must. What @GoPlausible envisioned and built for since 4 years ago has now become a reality and best practice being reported by DIF @DecentralizedID Let's build foundations of Agentic Internet on #Algorand for the next 4 years to come. It's not about building a nice app , it's about correct and proactive architectural patterns, 4 years ahead of time they even appear. We need full support of #algofam and @AlgoFoundation to do it. Are you with us? blog.identity.foundation/digital-identi…

Just for info: @GoPlausible is building the blocks of Agentic Internet on #Algorand , one by one... These are done so far🤖 goplausible.com
