Odaily Planet Daily reports that Polygon has posted on X stating that scaling agent-based commerce—where AI agents autonomously conduct commercial transactions and payments—requires eliminating friction, with payments needing to be instant and predictably near-zero fee. Proposal PIP-82 suggests using the Polygon x402 facilitator to refund up to $1 million in base gas fees to accelerate transactions between agents and further reduce costs for AI agents.
It is reported that Polygon holds a significant share in agentic commerce, having processed several key AI agent transactions. For example, OpenClaw completed the first fully autonomous AI-to-AI commercial transaction on Polygon—automatically listing, pricing, negotiating, closing, and collecting payment.
