Gate News Report, March 25 — The Solana Foundation announced that it will position the Solana network as the core infrastructure of the emerging “agentic internet,” where economic activities are initiated and executed proactively by AI systems rather than humans. Vibhu Norby, Chief Product Officer of the Solana Foundation, stated at the New York Digital Asset Summit (DAS) that AI is not just a vertical industry but a platform revolution impacting various sectors, including crypto.
Solana’s strategic focus is on payment infrastructure, with the network processing approximately 15 million on-chain payments initiated by agents, mainly for machine-to-machine commercial transactions. The programmability of crypto payments is key to attracting agents, and stablecoins will become the default method for paying for any computational resources. Norby believes this will fundamentally reshape internet business models, making micro-payments and pay-per-use possible, which traditional payment channels cannot support.
The Solana Foundation emphasizes that its high-performance design offers advantages in this new paradigm: “Agents are calm, precise machines… If asked how agents pay with crypto, Solana is often the first choice.” Additionally, advances in AI technology lower development barriers, with Solana developers building tools directly for AI systems, including machine-readable “skill” files and AI-first development platforms.
Norby predicts that in the future, user interactions with crypto will predominantly involve agents, with 95% to 99% of transactions initiated by large language models (LLMs).
