Solana news (SOL): Foundation says network is becoming core infrastructure for ‘agentic’ internet

CoinDesk
Solana Foundation believes its network is becoming essential infrastructure for an 'agentic' internet driven by AI-initiated economic activity.

Summary

The Solana Foundation is actively positioning its network as a core component of an emerging “agentic” internet, where AI systems, rather than humans, will initiate and execute economic transactions. Vibhu Norby, chief product officer of the Solana Foundation, highlighted AI as a platform shift impacting all industries, including crypto. Solana has already processed 15 million on-chain payments from agents, primarily for machine-to-machine commerce, with stablecoins expected to become the standard payment method for computational resources. This shift could revolutionize internet monetization by enabling sub-cent, pay-per-use transactions. The foundation emphasizes Solana’s performance capabilities as a key advantage for agents, and developers are increasingly building directly for AI systems, focusing on APIs and machine-readable skills. Norby anticipates that the majority of crypto transactions will eventually originate from Large Language Models (LLMs) through agents.
