Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince announced the launch A net dollar, an US dollar supported by Stablecoin designed for an AI agent on Thursday.
Cloud Connectivity Cloud plans to deploy a clean dollar as a payment spine for AI autonomous systems that book flights, order food and manage calendars without human intervention.
“For decades, the Internet business model has been running on advertising platforms and banking transfers,” The prince said and added it “Another Internet business model will be powered by paying for use, fractional payments and microtracks.”
Stablecoin will use the global cloudflare network to process payment at the speed of the Internet and focus on basic restrictions in current financial systems intended for human -initiated transactions.
AI Agans drive new payment infrastructure requirements
The net dollar appears because AI agents are increasingly require payment systems capable of handling millions of automated transactions without human supervision.
Traditional payment rails, such as wire and credit card transfers, cannot accommodate immediate settlements and micropacates that require autonomous systems.
Stablecoin company will allow global payments across different currencies and time zones, facilitate instant program transactions for time -sensitive purchases and provide compensation to content creators and API developers.
AI personal agents could automatically buy the cheapest available tickets or buy items when they are on sale while business agents can pay suppliers immediately after delivery.
Cloudflare also contributes to open standards, including Agent and X402 payments protocolthat simplifies the processing of payments via the Internet infrastructure.
The X402 protocol, developed with Coinbase, converts the HTTP error code “402 Pledy” into a functional payment system that allows machines to directly buy data and services.
Amazon Web Services already examines the integration of x402 For cloud computing payments, a $ 1.9 trillion cloud market potentially transforms the $ 1.9 trillion market.
The control framework forms the development of stablecoin infrastructure
The announcement of a net dollar comes in the middle of an unprecedented regulatory brightness for stablecoins with The law on the Genius of the USA Providing complex federal instructions that transformed industrial strategy.
The US Commercial Commission for Commodity Futures has launched an initiative To allow stablekoins to serve as a tokenized collateral on derivative markets, while acting CFTC Caroline Pham calls it “Application Application” For the modernization of financial infrastructure.
European markets at the same time stand up to competition Nine major Euro banks supports mica regulated stablecoin Prepare to launch in the second half of 2026 and try to question the US dominance of the dollar.
Meanwhile regulatory momentum allowed technical giants to accept the integration of stablecoin with Google adds Stablecoin support to your new AI payment framework Through partnership with Coinbase and Ethereum Foundation.
James Tromans Google called Stabnatecoins “Probably one of the most important upgrades of payments from the SWIFT network,” With a network effect that caused a growing consensus between technological giants about the role of programmable money in autonomous systems.
In the same interval, the wider market of Stablecoin has expanded from $ 4 billion in $ 2020 to more than $ 280 billion, with Boti already represent 70% of the volume of stablecoin transferaccording to industrial data.
In fact, recent industrial projections from Citigroup have shown that the stablecoin sector can achieve By 2030 more than $ 2 trillion in market capitalization.
The main issuers of Stablecoin are now placed on the 17th. Worldwide in the US Ministry of the Treasury and exceed countries such as South Korea and Germany, an impact on their influence on government debt markets.
In addition, Cloudflare is not the first to implement a payment system powered by artificial intelligence. Co -founder Circle Sean Neville has recently launched Labs Catena Labs with $ 18 million financing to create the first fully regulated AI Native financial institution and placed Stablecoins as a necessary infrastructure for autonomous economic activity.
While stablecoins are growing and accepted in various verticals, banking industrial groups are pushing back against growth, warning that regulatory gaps could trigger $ 6.6 trillion outflows from traditional banks.
However, Coinbase Research suggests The fact that most stablecoin activity occurs at international level does not pose a threat to banks and instead could strengthen the dollar dominance without significant impact on domestic bank deposits.
