Marsu (@marsuplamy) reportedThe Agentic Economy 2024 was the year of LLMs. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and models like them responded to prompts and that was enough. But 2025 brought something different. Models were no longer just responding, they were planning, calling tools, executing code, coordinating with other systems, and doing all of this without constant human oversight. This transition transformed AI from something you query into something you delegate to. This is called agentic AI and with it an entirely new economy began to take shape. To understand the scale of this economy a few numbers are worth looking at. The AI agents market is expected to grow from 7.84 billion dollars in 2025 to 52.62 billion dollars by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate of 46.3%. McKinsey projects that agentic commerce could orchestrate between 3 and 5 trillion dollars in global revenue by 2030. These numbers are not theoretical, the infrastructure is already being built. In just the six month period between April and September 2025, Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Stripe and Google all launched agentic payment infrastructures. So what are these agents actually doing? They are purchasing services on your behalf, paying other agents, accessing APIs, buying data, and doing all of this while making decisions in fractions of a second. Stablecoin transaction volume reached 33 trillion dollars in 2025, up 72% year over year, with supply surpassing 300 billion dollars. Agentic payments and machine to machine payment flows are cited as one of the key drivers behind this growth. Stablecoins like USDT and USDC are critical for agents because they allow programmable payments without price volatility. But legacy payment infrastructure was never designed for this world. Credit cards require human authentication, subscriptions demand upfront commitments, and API keys depend on manual onboarding processes. All of these systems were built for humans. When millions of agents are making countless payments per second none of these systems work technically or economically. x402 and the Awakening of HTTP 402 When web standards were being written in 1991 HTTP status code 402 was added and defined as 'Payment Required'. That day it was reserved, set aside for future use. This code waited more than thirty years and when its future arrived it turned out not to be human. The x402 standard activated this dormant code as a native payment layer for the internet: a server responds to a request with 402 and a price, the client pays on-chain in stablecoins, retries the request with proof of payment and receives the service. No account creation, no card on file, no subscription, no human. The protocol was launched in September 2025 by Coinbase and Cloudflare through the x402 Foundation. The coalition behind it is unusually broad, Google, Visa, AWS, Circle, Anthropic and Vercel are all core foundation members. Within five months of launch x402 had processed over 100 million transactions. In a single week in October 2025 the protocol handled approximately 500,000 payments, a 10,780% increase from the prior month. The technical side of x402 is very clean. For a developer integration is a single line of middleware, set a price per endpoint, point to a facilitator, and the API can charge per request in stablecoins. When an agent wants to access a service payment happens automatically inside the HTTP request, settlement completes within the round-trip. Zero human intervention. The Problem: Public Rails Don't Work for the Agentic Economy Now we come to the critical question. When millions of agents make transactions and every one of those transactions is visible on a public blockchain, what happens? Which APIs the agent uses, which data it accesses, which services it purchases, how much it pays, who it works with, all of it becomes completely visible. This is not just a user privacy problem, it means the strategy and logic the agent operates on is open to competitors. Is a company's agent feeding from the same data source as a rival's agent? How much is it spending on which compute services? How are supply chain decisions being made? All of this becomes readable on a public chain. On top of that there is the gas fee problem. On Ethereum and Tron fees shift constantly with network congestion. If an agent is making hundreds of microtransactions per second modeling your unit economics becomes impossible because you have no idea what costs will be in advance. For the agentic economy to work payment rails must be both private and predictably priced. Why Bitcoin is the Neutral Rail There are several clear answers to why Bitcoin stands out as the ideal settlement layer in this equation. First, censorship resistance. No central actor can stop, censor or restrict agent payments. For agents to operate autonomously the payment infrastructure must also be autonomous and uncensorable. Second, deterministic finality. Bitcoin's proof-of-work security is the most battle-tested and proven consensus mechanism in existence. For agent payments settlement must be definitive and irreversible. Third, global liquidity. Bitcoin is accessible everywhere in the world with no geographic restrictions and agents operate without borders. Fourth, the UTXO model. Unlike Ethereum's account-based model Bitcoin's UTXO structure allows non-conflicting transactions to be validated in parallel, a natural advantage for high-frequency agent payments. Where @Utexocom Fits The layer that combines Bitcoin's advantages with USDT and makes it production-ready for the agentic economy is Utexo. The RGB protocol issues and transfers USDT as a native asset on Bitcoin's own layer. Transfer details never get written to a public ledger thanks to client-side validation, only cryptographic commitments are anchored to Bitcoin UTXOs. So when an agent makes a payment who sent what to whom never leaks outward. The Lightning Network allows these assets to settle in milliseconds, at around 200ms latency. Utexo handles channel management, liquidity and routing entirely internally, with fees fixed and predefined at the protocol level. For the agentic economy this combination means the following. The agent pays in sub-second time, costs are predictable, payment details are private, and Bitcoin's finality provides the settlement guarantee. With the Mint component USDT from Ethereum, Tron or Solana can be moved onto Bitcoin rails. With the Swap component non-custodial exchange between BTC and USDT is possible. And the SDK reduces all of this complexity to a single API call, meaning a developer integrating agent payments never has to run a Lightning node or manage RGB infrastructure. Tether not only supporting this infrastructure but leading the seed round themselves, and preparing to issue USDT natively on Bitcoin through RGB protocol v0.11.1, answers the question of which rails the agentic economy will be built on. Machines are making payments now. Those payments need to be private, predictably priced, and anchored to Bitcoin. The infrastructure is here.

Fail To Reject (@JonMarshallNV) reported@AskPayPal I've never had a worse CSR experience with any company in my life, than I had with PayPal this week. And my issue is still not resolved, so I will have to muster up enough humanity to deal again with people who are not motivated to help me solve my problem.

Kai - Briefing Block (@briefing_block_) reported$PYPL at $60.50: A 28% Premium Can Still Be a Lowball Stripe and Advent’s reported $53 billion offer looks generous only because PayPal’s starting price is broken. The real question is who gets paid for the turnaround if it works. The wrong anchor PayPal entered the takeover report worth roughly $42 billion after losing more than 40% over the previous year. Its market value exceeded $280 billion in 2021, but that peak is not a serious valuation anchor today. Neither is a historic-low share price produced by slowing branded checkout, execution misses, and collapsing investor confidence. Based on current-year adjusted earnings guidance, $60.50 works out to only about 11–12x earnings. That is not an aggressive control multiple for a platform with 439 million active accounts, $464 billion of quarterly payment volume, $1.7 billion of first-quarter adjusted free cash flow, and more cash and investments than debt. The discount is deserved First-quarter non-GAAP operating margin fell 229 basis points, active accounts were effectively flat sequentially, and adjusted EPS is guided between a low-single-digit decline and roughly flat for 2026. Enrique Lores only took over in March, and he has not proved that splitting PayPal into three businesses will revive checkout growth or repair the technology platform. That execution risk deserves a discount. It does not justify handing the entire recovery option to the buyer. The second-order read Stripe and Advent have reportedly lined up around $50 billion of financing, suggesting this is more than casual price discovery. They are trying to buy PayPal before the cost reset, operating simplification, and reinvestment appear in reported numbers. Lores is targeting at least $1.5 billion of savings over two to three years, with those funds intended to support growth. William Blair’s Andrew Jeffrey said the opening bid could move toward $70, and even that would be only about 13–14x PayPal’s current adjusted earnings range. That is a defensible negotiation level, not a heroic valuation. The board is not choosing between $60.50 and the old $300 share price. It is choosing between certainty now and PayPal’s probability-weighted value after the turnaround has had time to work. Bottom line: $60.50 is a credible opening bid, but unless diligence reveals deeper structural decay, it pays shareholders for recent pain—not fairly for PayPal’s recovery upside.

10x Stock Signals | Fundamental Analysis | Trends (@DeepValueReport) reportedI analyze the RISKS on popular stocks so you don't have to Part 10 Ok so everyone's talking about $PYPL today Up 15% and holding most of it Stripe and Advent just offered $60.50 a share, valuing it above $53 B But before you chase this pop..here's what could still go wrong The offer is a 28% premium to Tuesday's close and it's backed by real financing, about $50b committed from banks PayPal's board hasn't said yes to anything yet They're meeting as soon as July 20 to even discuss it Michael Burry, who owns the stock, already called the offer too low and said any real bid should be well above intrinsic value to justify giving up control If Stripe and Advent don't come back higher... the board can just say no and this goes nowhere No deal means giving most of this back PayPal was down 18% YTD before this news..squeezed by Apple Pay, Block, and buy now pay later competitors eating into growth None of that changed today If the deal falls apart...the stock likely drifts back toward where it was Tuesday
