PayPal and Google Cloud made joint statements at Consensus Miami: AI Agent commercial payments require open payment protocols + encrypted multi-party custody, and they are choosing the underlying track of encrypted infrastructure.
I feel that the significance of this matter is seriously underestimated; these two companies announcing the same thing on the same day is no coincidence.
Everyone is still discussing whether $BTC will rise to 100k, but what truly redefines what encryption is used for is this message. AI Agents need to autonomously complete commercial transactions; they cannot open bank accounts, wait for T+2 settlement, or be arbitrarily frozen by a payment company. They need on-chain payments.
In other words, the biggest clients for encrypted infrastructure might not be the next wave of retail investors, but the next generation of AI.
Currently, laying out on-chain payments, stablecoins, and Web3 wallets is essentially betting on the infrastructure of the AI economy. If this logic holds, the scale won't be smaller than the mobile payments boom back then.
DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH, not investment advice.
