stablecoins will clear workflows, payments are just embedded executions.

Prediction: by 2028 most stablecoin volume is B2B treasury, not retail remittance. Remittance gets the headlines -- it's sympathetic and visible. But the dollars are in supplier payments, intercompany sweeps, and payroll. Boring, recurring, enormous. The boring flows always win

Great writeup by Jessy. Any bilateral execution-focused use cases likely won't need blockchains; multilateral execution use cases only need blockchains when value movement itself is the use case. Excited on what you guys are building next!

I think the business model will be the same - standardize the abundant and build network effects on the scarcity; what’s changing is what’s abundant vs scarce; Agents make execution abundant. on-chain settlement cost is trending to zero; then what’s left that’s still scarce in the blockchain context is liquidity. But it’s not just trading or lending liquidity. Agents make execution abundant across all possible use cases; therefore the form of liquidity that’ll be needed is all possible form of capabilities supply - in other words, other agents.

@robbiepetersen_ If the agentic economy will look more like an org chart than a marketplace, then what needs to be built is more of a top-down control structure as delegation substrate, instead of an open coordination market.

> I think that agentic payments are the killer app state channels never had. 👍👍👍 off-chain replicated state machines with superseding signed state that use blockchain for escrow and settlement. They’ll come for payments, and stay for programmable coordination.

Claude code re-discovered Unix, and taught us that powerful coordination doesn’t require rich, bespoke standards, but a small set of simple and universal primitives: - cli powers everything - everthing is a file - every task is pipe-able Simple interfaces win. Unix won. Git won. HTTP won. REST won. But almost all current agent protocols are designed like ESB and CORBA. It gets worse for agentic payment, commerce or transaction standards. They won’t work, not because agents don’t need standards, but because they’re trying to standardize the wrong layer. We keep trying to standardize rich semantics, shared ontologies, negotiation flows, and high-level message schemas. That is exactly where heterogeneity is highest and agreement is hardest. Unix did not win by standardizing meaning. It won by standardizing composition. Don’t standardize what agents think. Standardize how value moves when they agree.

💡Patrick Young @patkyoung — Head of Growth, Khalani @khalani_network "Agentic payments need bulletproof execution rails." 🤖 • The bottleneck isn’t AI intelligence — it’s coordination, verification, and deterministic settlement. • Without trust-minimized execution, AI is just another API. • Agents need escrowed capital, solver accountability, and protocol-level guarantees. • The real blocker today? Fragmented chains, liquidity, and execution venues. • Autonomous agents require unified intent routing + cross-chain liquidity. The future isn’t on-chain AI. It’s verifiable, economically-enforced execution.

You need an open p2p market where the on/off ramp order settlement conditions are programmable without having to deploy bespoke contracts for each bank / zkTLS vendor, data schema etc AI can help write per vendor/bank zkTLS plumbing and proof generation code but is not the key unlock for generalizing this

@8004_scan Agents are just code - they could have identity but how do you ensure the code hasn’t changed? On the agent side, does slight change of code require rebuilding reputation from scratch?

@cyntro_py agents can't get API keys. APIs are the not the right primitive, intents are. Intents are APIs with inverse integration semantics: not demand integrating supply, but supply integrating demand.

@alive_ Love to hear your thoughts on privacy by default vs opt-in privacy zones on an otherwise transparent chain.

Privacy will be the most important moat in crypto. Why? Because secrets are hard to migrate. Everyone is launching a new "high performance" blockchain lately. But these chains are hardly different from one another. Blockspace is functionally the same everywhere. And with

@0xMasonH not just agentic actions to consume service, but to provide service given working capital; agents write code to glue together existing services
