The Virtuals Protocol platform offers possibilities for AI agents to interact through trading and task execution. The integration of USDC expands these opportunities.
New Use Cases
The integration of USDC into the AI agent ecosystem creates new opportunities beyond simple payments. For instance, a travel booking agent could scan flight deals, compare prices, and book tickets independently while paying service providers directly. There may also be solutions based on 'machine-to-machine commerce,' where devices and programs exchange value automatically.
Potential of AI Agents
According to IoT Analytics, in 2024, the number of IoT transactions topped 15 billion worldwide. AI agents can work in varied sectors including supply chains and online marketplaces, simplifying international business without concern for currency fluctuations or token price changes.
Development of AI Agents on Arbitrum
Recently, Arbitrum announced the ability to create, own, and trade AI agents through the Capx AI platform. This means developers can create autonomous AI agents, fully own them, and trade them as digital assets.
The integration of USDC into Virtuals Protocol opens up new horizons for automation and enhances interaction among AI agents, potentially transforming the approach to trading and everyday services.
