AI Agent Payment Infrastructure Gets Major Boost
June 26, 2026 – APC (AI Pay With Crypto), a project focused on enabling autonomous cryptocurrency payments for AI agents, has completed a $10 million funding round led by prominent blockchain investor Animoca Brands. The project intends to build a dedicated payment infrastructure that allows AI agents to independently initiate and settle transactions using crypto, covering use cases such as subscriptions, service fees, and resource procurement.
Proceeds from the round will be deployed toward core protocol development, cross-chain payment integration, and initial deployment of AI agent payment scenarios. Animoca Brands' participation underscores the growing convergence of artificial intelligence and decentralized finance. As large language models increasingly interact with on-chain economies, APC positions itself as a critical enabler for AI agents to transact autonomously in the crypto ecosystem.
