BlackRock believes that AI agents can drive demand for stablecoins as they become increasingly capable of autonomously completing tasks and making payments. This is the assessment in the report “The Machine-Native Economy” by BlackRock’s digital assets research team.
According to the report, AI agents need to make many small payments for API calls, data access, and renting computing capacity. BlackRock says traditional bank accounts and card networks are not suitable for these transactions, while stablecoins can support near-instant, continuous payments.
BlackRock also mentioned the possibility of embedding computing power into on-chain contracts using common standards. At that time, assets tied to computing power could be bought and sold, used as collateral, or enabled for automatic payments.
A data-citation report shows that the volume of stablecoin transactions after adjustment exceeded $11 trillion in 2025, while the value of stablecoins in circulation exceeded $300 billion as of September 2026. According to TRM Labs’ research on $52.7 million in payments via x402, the AI agent currently accounts for only about 0.6% to 7.5%.
