$SUIG Google Cloud is developing the Agentic Payment Protocol (AP2) to establish an open standard for AI-driven commerce. The protocol aims to enable AI agents to authorize and execute secure transactions independently using the new x402 standard.
Key ecosystem participants include:
Sui (
$SUI) – providing native infrastructure and zkLogin for seamless agent authentication.
Ethereum (
$ETH.X) – serving as a primary settlement layer and security backbone for the protocol.
Solana (
$SOL.X) – integrated for high-throughput, low-latency transaction processing.
A major milestone for the project is set for Autumn 2026, when the first commercial pilot programs are expected to launch in collaboration with major payment processors and European partners like Nexi Group. This phase will mark the transition from technical framework to real-world autonomous commerce.
Deep research aided by Gemini.
