Bitcoin

Monetary base layer

A monetary anchor whose agent-payment relevance comes mainly through Lightning and L402 for constrained BTC-denominated API payments.

PoW Monetary Base Lightning L402

Ethereum

Programmable settlement layer

A programmable settlement layer whose stablecoin, smart-account, x402, and L2 infrastructure can support agent-payment systems.

PoS Settlement Smart Accounts Stablecoin L2 x402

Solana

High-throughput payment L1

A high-throughput L1 runtime whose low-cost execution, stablecoin transfers, x402 support, and Actions/Blinks can serve agent-payment UX.

PoS High Throughput Low Fees x402 Actions Stablecoin

NEAR

Intent-based agent coordination

An intent-centric coordination layer whose delegated execution, account UX, and cross-chain routing can support agent-payment workflows.

PoS Intents Chain Abstraction Access Keys Delegated Execution Low Fees Stablecoin

Sui

Object-centric execution L1

An object-centric execution layer whose PTBs, s402 payment flows, and parallel object settlement can support programmable agent workflows.
