Panel | Agentic Payments: When Machines Hold Stablecoins

AI agents are already transacting. The stablecoin infrastructure built for humans wasn't designed for them. In this panel, Farooq Sheikh (Cloudflare), Philip Decker (Soho Pay), Vincent Chok (First Digital), Anil Nadiminti (AWS), and DeFi Dave (Cap, Moderator) examine what needs to change in stablecoin infrastructure to support autonomous, machine-initiated payment flows at scale. The discussion covers: • How x402 and similar protocols enable machine-to-machine stablecoin transactions at the infrastructure layer • Where stablecoin rails must change to support high-frequency and micro-value payment flows • How enterprises are approaching agent wallets, spending controls and audit trails for machine-initiated transactions A forward-looking look at the infrastructure gap between current stablecoin rails and the agentic economy.
