Solana's x402 ecosystem recorded strong growth in May, surpassing $50 million in total transaction volume as AI agent payments continued to gain momentum.
The number of agent-active senders surged 645% to nearly 192,000, highlighting the rapid adoption of protocols that enable autonomous AI agents to make payments and interact with digital services.
Analysts view this trend as an important step toward a new digital economy where not only humans, but also AI-powered agents, can independently execute transactions and participate in financial activities.
