AI agents won't wait for stablecoins to take over payments. Anchorage Digital CEO Nathan McCauley says for real-world payments, agents will use whatever works now, from cash and cards to crypto rails "I think probably agents interacting with other agents, that's probably where you're going to see stablecoin-based use cases or blockchain-based use cases. But paying suppliers, moving money, you've got to work with the existing system." "And the opportunity is now. The agentic economy can't wait for a replatforming to stablecoins. And so the agents are going to adopt whatever is easiest." "I think everybody who's interacted with ChatGPT, you're inside chat with your Claude, you're saying, hey, I want to do something, that agent is going to pick the thing that works today." "The thing that works today is the one that gives them cash, card and crypto rails right out of the box."
