Executives from PayPal and Google Cloud stated that open payment protocols, machine-readable merchant directories, and multi-party encrypted custody are key to scaling agentive commerce. AI agents cannot use traditional bank accounts, making crypto payments a natural choice. Google has launched the Agentic Payments Protocol (AP2), collaborating with 120 partners—including PayPal—and has donated it to the FIDO Foundation. A PayPal survey found that 95% of merchants encounter AI agent traffic, but only 20% have machine-readable directories.Source:Show originalDisclaimer: The information on this page may have been obtained from third parties and does not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of KuCoin.
