90.8% of AI Agent Payments Are Sub-Cent Microtransactions: Report

  • —6.4 million transactions over 35 days moved only $119,947 in total
  • —90.8% of agent payments were microtransactions under one cent
  • —Institutional financial workflows scored 12 out of 100 on readiness
  • —AI-labeled tools made up less than 0.55% of Hyperliquid volume
Why it matters: Machine-payment rails are running ahead of real demand: volumes are driven by micro-payments rather than autonomous commerce, capping the sector's near-term growth.
