Circle Announces AI Agent Support With Nanopayments
Circle is working to open its products to the next era of commerce and payments, with AI Agents predicted to execute billions of transactions per day.

Circle has announced a new product called Nanopayments.
Circle has officially released its developer documentation for enabling its USDC stablecoin for nanopayments, allowing for amounts as little as $0.000001 to be settled. At the core, the company is betting big on the emergence of AI Agents and agentic payment activity onchain, with USDC positioned well for daily agent-native transactions.
While some suspect the increase in stablecoin issuance (for both USDC and EURC) caused Circle's stock to go up - and the possibility to keep more of stablecoin reserve interest if yields are banned under Clarity Act - it is reasonable to assume that committing to agentic and machine payments sets Circle up for the next few decades.
