All of sudden, x402 and ERC-8004 will start to get a ton more attention.

No brainer as to why, but its very good that Ethereum has been working towards solutions for agentic commerce for awhile.

People will be flying about agent-to-agent payments and what's to come.

Reality is different.

Its slower. Until we get actual micropayment functionality in-browser, the state of agentic micropayments is still in the distance. Likely late 2026, 2027, but who knows with these time frames.

Halliday, NEAR, Allora, Chainlink, Virtuals, Bittensor Circle, and many others have been in front of this wave as well.

This is a multi-year category with most progress coming later in the decade, but when it hits, its going to hit hard.
