Every stablecoin forecast you’ve read—including the Treasury Secretary’s own—is a bet on human behavior: the saver in Buenos Aires, the merchant in Lagos, the remittance from Houston to Manila.
This is really interesting. The agentic angle is the part I hadn’t fully appreciated; the idea that stablecoins may scale not just because humans choose to use them, but because they become the native settlement layer for machine-to-machine economic activity.
From a CFO lens, it immediately made me wonder what this means inside an enterprise once agents start initiating payments, treasury movements, vendor settlement, etc. At that point the control question gets fascinating: who is actually authorising the economic act: the human, the agent, or the rules around the agent?
Very cool piece. You’ve given me something to think about.
