Solana Drives Agentic On-Chain Payments Adoption

Solana Foundation product lead Vibhu Norby and industry figures said at the Digital Asset Summit in March 2026 that AI agents are rapidly driving on-chain transactions. Norby predicts 99.99% of on-chain transactions within two years and says Solana already handles 65% of agentic payments via x402, while Solana launched a Developer Platform with APIs and integrations with Mastercard and Western Union. The shift signals growing agent-driven, pay-per-use digital payments.
