Cloudflare introduces wallets for AI agents, plans stablecoin payments

Cloudflare introduced Cloudflare Wallets on Tuesday, a programmable wallet for artificial intelligence (AI) agents designed to support stablecoin payments.　　The US cloud infrastructure company said in a blog post that the product aims to simplify how AI agents identify themselves and pay for application programming interfaces (API) and digital content through stablecoin micropayments, enabling what it calls “agentic commerce.”　　Cloudflare said users can claim a Cloudflare Wallet handle immediately, while payment features will roll out later.　　The company plans to integrate the wallets with its recently announced Monetization Gateway, which uses Coinbases x402 protocol to enable stablecoin micropayments.　　“Stablecoin micropayments via x402 will make it simple to try an API without an account, allowing agents to test new options with little friction,” Cloudflare software engineer Will Papper wrote in the blog post. He added that the wallets will also let users store stablecoins and receive payments across the web.　　Cointelegraph contacted Cloudflare for comment on the rollout timeline and additional details but had not received a response by publication.

Crypto is in a tough spot right now, and the effects of a down market are being felt across the industry. In February of this year, Nomura tightened risk limits at Laser Digital after crypto losses dragged down quarterly profit. This was read by the market as a retreat, but Nomura indicated it would be staying in crypto, just with a more conservative approach.　　To this end, Laser Digitals investment and partnership with ZigChain delivers a comprehensive risk framework and governance across a pipeline of institutional onchain vault products, according to a statement.　　Rafay Gadit said the private credit market in the Middle East faces a two-sided problem.　　“Firstly, those who need money cannot raise it from the normal banks, and those who have money dont know those opportunities exist,” he said. “And even if they know, its only approachable through very large funds that have extremely high fees and barriers to entry. We are democratizing that.”　　Dr. Jez Mohideen, Co-founder and CEO, Laser Digital, said his firm has been watching the private credit category, and while the opportunity in onchain finance is real, execution risk has been consistently underestimated.　　“ZIG Markets brings regional depth and an origination track record, and as an investor and
