@GOATNetwork dropped a thread announcing that their "The Agent Standard" 2.0 version, which they proposed back in February, is about to launch.
💎Key Points:
🔸Humans need reliable money, like Bitcoin, and AI agents also need currency, requiring a robust monetary system specifically designed for machines.
🔸Things are moving faster than expected: x402 has already processed over 100 million payments, agent wallets are rolling out, and registered AI agents are nearing 90,000. Even regulatory bodies are starting to discuss "who should bear responsibility for AI-initiated payments."
🔸Just having money isn't enough anymore. The deeper question becomes: how can a fully autonomous AI agent be trusted, authorized, discovered, and compensated on the open internet, while still being held accountable?
🔸They are upgrading this to "The Agent Standard 2.0" with the core concept called Verifiable Agency, aiming to create a comprehensive framework of "Identity + Trust + Economy" for AI entities.
⭐️In summary, GOAT Network is laying the groundwork for the future AI economy, upgrading from "allowing AI to spend money" to "enabling AI to participate in economic activities with trust." This will allow AI agents to safely, efficiently, and verifiably execute payments, transactions, and collaborations without relying on centralized systems or unstable on-chain solutions.
