Consensus Miami 2026 made one thing clear: AI agents are about to drive up to $5T in commerce by 2030, and the race to power agentic payments is on. x402, Google's AP2, Stripe's MPP, Visa Intelligent Commerce Connect, and Mastercard Agent Pay are all fighting to own the agent-to-merchant checkout moment. But what happens when an agent needs to rebalance, repay, or move value across blockchain networks. Settlement is still up for grabs.
