Cathie Wood: investors should watch where AI agents spend money

  • —Wood: "follow the agent" will become a common piece of investment advice
  • —Coinbase is pushing its x402 protocol for paying APIs and services in stablecoins
  • —Visa unveiled a Trusted Agent Protocol to verify agent identity and user authority
  • —Stripe and OpenAI launched the Agentic Commerce Protocol in September 2025
Why it matters: If AI agents start paying for data and APIs, demand for stablecoin settlement and blockchain infrastructure could rise.
