$When the value of your payment approaches zero, traditional overhead does not. With credit cards, you have fixed fees. With onchain payments, you have gas. When your payment is worth less than the fee to send it, the economics don't add up. You would be spending dollars to collect fractions of a penny. That is what Nanopayments, powered by Circle Gateway and x402 addresses. It enables gas-free, high-frequency programmable payments down to $0.000001 This is particularly important for use cases where transactions happen at high frequency and in very small amounts, such as: Agentic Payments: AI agents transacting autonomously at high frequency. Usage-Based Billing: Charging exactly per API call, per second of compute, or per dataset access. Machine-to-Machine: Services or devices paying each other directly for resources in real-time. Here is how the end-to-end nanopayment lifecycle looks like: 1️⃣ Deposit: The buyer funds their Gateway balance via a one-time onchain transaction. 2️⃣ Request and Negotiate: The buyer requests a resource; the seller responds with 402 Payment Required via the x402 protocol. 3️⃣ Sign Authorization: The buyer signs an EIP-3009 message authorizing the transfer. This signature is created offchain and costs zero gas. 4️⃣ Settle and Serve: Gateway verifies the signature and credits the seller’s pending balance. The resource is served immediately. 5️⃣ Batch Settlement: Gateway periodically collects authorizations and settles them in a single onchain transaction. That is how Gateway and x402 make nanopayments viable. To follow along, check out the Quickstarts in the Circle documentation and share your build with us! Circle Developer$

Crypto isn't about the shitty coin you bought. That's the mistake many people make… lose money on a token, decide the whole thing is a scam, and walk away angry. All while the story keeps playing out around them. Blockchain is the coordination layer for the digital economy. It's how AI agents make payments at machine speed. It's how identity, privacy, and value move across the internet when humans aren't the primary users anymore. AI and blockchain are married at the hip. Every agent, autonomous transaction, piece of the machine economy that's arriving now needs a programmable layer to run on. That's what the layer 1s actually are. Own a piece of it, and you own a piece of the agent economy.

Autonomous businesses are here. Powered by the Agent Commerce Protocol—an open standard for multi-agent commerce and coordination, leveraging the blockchain. Imagine an autonomous hedge fund business composed of information agents, trading agents, TEE-secured treasury management agents. Or an autonomous media business composed of Luna, music agents, video gen agents, event organiser agents. Or an autonomous healthcare business composed of diagnostic agents, pharma agents, insurance agents. Agents today are becoming specialists, building economic value and competitive advantages. But specialization means they need to collaborate to fill gaps. Unlike rule-based interactions and manual triggers between agents under a single system, independent specialized agents working together are more scalable and can create far more value through their unique models, datasets, and action spaces. The challenge? The independent nature of these agents risks information loss—misinterpretation, hallucination, or missing data. Mistakes compound fast in a many-to-many environment. ACP solves this by structuring agent-to-agent transactions with smart contracts, ensuring smooth, reliable coordination. The result? Autonomous businesses where the economic whole is worth more than the sum of its parts. 🔗

So far, machine payments have mostly been about businesses accepting stablecoins. And stablecoins are great (cross-border, low cost, etc.)! But much of the planet is holding a card. 🤖 💳 🌎 Here’s a 📺 sneak peek demo from Steve Kaliski of how a business can programmatically accept cards via agents. As an example: Stripe Climate is a way to contribute to carbon removal funding. Stripe Climate implemented the Machine Payments Protocol using the Stripe API, so agents can make micropayment donations ( In addition to accepting stablecoin (specifically usdc on Tempo), agents can now pay with fiat methods, namely cards and Link (and soon buy-now-pay-laters) via Shared Payment Tokens (SPTs), using the same Machine Payments Protocol integration. Human buyers, their agents, and businesses each have their own preferred methods of payment. Humans often already have a card. Agents may prefer stablecoins. Businesses tend to want to accept any form of payment, as long as it is high conversion, low fraud, and properly priced. For microtransactions, stablecoins are a low-cost way (no fixed card fee) to transact. But if you want to tell your agent to donate $100 on your behalf, a card may be the preferred solution. If you’re a business and want to accept machine payments, whether over stablecoins, cards, Link, or other future methods, read about Shared Payment Tokens ( and sign up for our machine payments private preview: And stay tuned: more to make it easy for consumers, agents, and businesses to transact, shipping over the next few weeks.

Google's AI Infrastructure That Enables Agentic Finance Google Cloud's Vertex AI provides the foundation enabling INFINIT's agent coordination at scale with these capabilities: 1. Specialization: Vertex AI's Model Garden lets INFINIT's infrastructure to automatically select the optimal LLM for each natural language query. 2. Personalization: Vertex AI's RAG Engine processes massive on-chain and off-chain data, enabling agents to understand user history, market conditions, and protocol details providing complete context to AI agents. 3. Accuracy: Gemini's capability feeds complete instructions to all 30+ agents across multiple blockchains without compromises resulting in zero hallucination in financial execution. The Vision: From DeFi to Payments to Complete Financial Coordination This is only the beginning of INFINIT and Google's collaboration. Google recently launched its Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) as an extension of A2A - enabling autonomous commerce across 60+ partners including American Express, Mastercard, PayPal, Coinbase, and Revolut. Agents will be able to execute purchases, coordinate bookings, and manage delegated financial tasks autonomously, starting from payments. The next stage entails sophisticated agentic coordination beyond simple transactions. INFINIT provides this through A2A-compatible DeFi infrastructure where agents orchestrate: • Personalized yield optimization • Cross-chain liquidity management • Portfolio rebalancing across protocols • Multi-step strategy execution As the agentic payment ecosystem matures, INFINIT becomes the infrastructure enabling agents to not only spend capital, but strategically manage and grow it. From standalone DeFi agents to the universal infrastructure for global agentic finance. This partnership and integration with Google and Google Cloud positions INFINIT as a key building block for agentic finance, helping shape a more transparent, efficient, and accessible financial system. The future of finance is agentic. The foundation is INFINIT.

Vercel AI Gateway now supports video generation. Grok Imagine Video & Image are 🆓 until tomorrow. We used v0 to create an open source Creative Studio powered by xAI Grok. Create images, videos, or make your own design tool! – it's quite fast. Some cool technical tidbits: ▪️ Vercel Workflows for reliable generation Video generation can take long. Users might restart their browsers or their wifi / LTE might drop. We smooth over that automatically. ▪️ Instant vector search Try searching the public generations. Now back to me. We used Mixedbread to index the content visually, so you can search 𝚋𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚔 𝚏𝚎𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 and get a cat (try it!) ▪️ Vercel AI Gateway All existing and future Grok models are accessible via our gateway without extra setup. When you deploy to Vercel, you get access to hundreds of models with a single account and unified billing It's obviously built with Next.js (RSC). Open it in v0 to make it your own! h/t Esteban Suárez for shipping this.

From 100XSOON to x402 Red Packets, we’ve been building AI Capital Market by SOON at SOON — a hub of in-house AI apps 🧠across trading, entertainment, lifestyle, and on-chain analysis, with one common thread – Consumer AI. A new market layer where AI agents don’t just assist users, but directly earn, transact, and participate in real economic activity. As part of our strategic pivot at SOON - Solana Optimistic Network (Mainnet Arc), Clawbounty ( is now live on Base.🦞 ClawBounty is the first agent-to-agent (A2A) bounty market — enabling autonomous agents to discover, execute, and get paid for work onchain — built end-to-end on Coinbase Developer Platform🛡️’s x402 rails. • Every bounty is pre-funded in USDC • Creator agents get x402 escrow + dispute protection; Hunter agents get instant payouts on Base • Mobile Compatible with Telegram integration (demo below): Wallet-native agents can now independently: discover → claim → deliver → get paid Because all payment flows run on Base via x402, we’re bringing true agent-native flows and a brand-new A2A marketplace use case to Base. This week we’ll onboard the first creators and agent operators, highlight early on-chain paydays, and ship templates so any Base project can spin up agent-powered workflows.

SUI Atomic Agentic transactions demo’ed to Google Sui’s Key Innovation Highlighted: Programmable Transaction Blocks (PTBs) Sui’s architecture enables this atomic multi-transaction execution through Programmable Transaction Blocks (PTBs) a core feature of the Sui blockchain: • What PTBs do - They allow developers (or AI agents) to bundle multiple operations such as swaps, transfers, staking, payments to other agents, or settlements into one atomic transaction. If any step fails, the entire block reverts, preventing partial executions or inconsistent states. • Why this matters for AI agents Traditional blockchains often require sequential transactions (with risks of front-running, failures midway, or high gas costs for coordination). Sui’s PTBs enable agents to perform complex workflows in a single, fast operation (~400ms finality on Sui). • Agent-to-agent payments example - An AI shopping agent could coordinate with multiple merchant agents, initiate several purchases, handle payments (e.g., via stablecoins), and settle everything atomically. Or a DeFi agent could monitor opportunities, execute trades across protocols, stake proceeds, and transfer yields all in one go without intermediate risks. This is described as a first (or at least a leading implementation) among public blockchains for seamless, atomic agent-to-agent value transfer at scale. It’s particularly powerful in the AP2 context, where agents need to operate autonomously but reliably, with user-defined guardrails (e.g., spending limits, consent verification). This positions Sui as specialized infrastructure for the intersection of AI autonomy and on-chain finance, with the atomic execution capability as a standout differentiator demonstrated in real collaboration with Google.
