PANews reported on March 26th that, according to CoinDesk, the Solana Foundation is positioning the network as the core infrastructure of the emerging "AI agent internet." Vibhu Norby, Chief Product Officer of the Solana Foundation, stated that AI is not a single vertical field, but a platform revolution impacting all industries, including the crypto space. Solana has already processed 15 million on-chain AI agent payments, and stablecoins are becoming the default tool for paying for AI computing resources.
Norby believes that AI-powered agent payments could revolutionize the monetization model of the internet, supporting transactions down to the cent and pay-as-you-go, which traditional payment methods cannot handle. Solana's high-performance design gives it an edge in this new paradigm. As AI tools lower the barrier to entry for developers, Solana developers are building applications directly for the AI system, including machine-readable "skills" documentation and an AI-first developer platform. Norby predicts that in the future, 95% to 99% of transactions will be completed through AI agents, fundamentally transforming how users interact with cryptography.
