  • The Infrastructure Layer of the Agent Economy

    Much of the AI conversation revolves around models — larger context windows, faster inference, better reasoning. But intelligence alone does not create an economy. Infrastructure does. If autonomous agents are to operate beyond isolated tools — if they are to discover one another, transact, and build lasting credibility — three foundational capabilities must exist: They…
