Consensus 2026 will address the critical infrastructure needed for AI agents to conduct autonomous financial transactions effectively.Summary
The rise of autonomous AI agents marks a fundamental shift in commerce, as they begin to transact independently of human oversight. Current financial systems, designed for humans, lack the necessary speed and automation for true agentic payments, which require features like per-second streaming and atomic settlement. Consensus 2026 gathers industry leaders, engineers, and policymakers to discuss the development of specialized protocols, such as x402 and MPP, and to establish the infrastructure for this emerging machine-to-machine economy.
