AI Agents, Digital Dollars: Ethereum’s Next Act Takes Shape Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin used the opening day of ETHDenver 2026 to outline what could become a structural shift in how digital services are priced. He argued that AI agents may push the internet away from flat monthly subscriptions and toward granular, pay-per-use payments.

The limitation, Buterin suggested, was not technical infrastructure alone but human bandwidth.

Pressure building… expansion soon. ⚡ #crypto #BNB

📊 USDT Dominance — Quick Take Stablecoin dominance is pressing against descending resistance — liquidity on edge.
