BlockBeats News, March 26 — Vibhu Norby, Chief Product Officer of the Solana Foundation, stated at the New York Digital Asset Summit (DAS) that the Solana network has processed 15 million on-chain payments from AI agents, mainly used for machine-to-machine business interactions. Stablecoins are becoming the default settlement tool for AI agents’ payment computing power and services.
Norby pointed out that the programmable nature of AI agent payments gives them a unique advantage in crypto payment scenarios. He believes this trend will fundamentally change the monetization model of the internet, supporting micro-payments as small as fractions of a cent and billed based on usage, which traditional payment systems cannot achieve. When choosing crypto payment methods, AI agents often rank Solana highly. It is expected that in the future, 95% to 99% of crypto transactions will be initiated by large language models, and the primary way users interact with crypto networks will shift to AI agents.
