PlatON Showcases Innovative On-Chain AI Agent Payment Solution at Hong Kong Web3 Festival

From April 20 to 23, PlatON, together with Nexus, appeared at Hong Kong Web3 Festival, spotlighting its latest explorations in the convergence of on-chain payments and AI, and presenting a complete agentic payment solution powered by Nexus, its programmable clearing layer. The solution enables any LLM Agent to autonomously discover services, negotiate structured quotes, and settle on-chain payments in real time.

At the event, PlatON demonstrated the complete Nexus workflow, from AI Agent registration and wallet configuration to transaction initiation, payment verification, and settlement, offering a clear view of an automated payment experience that requires “no credit card, no human intervention, just code.” Centered on the frontier trend of AI-payment convergence, PlatON engaged in in-depth discussions with global innovators, further advancing the development of a more intelligent, efficient, and interconnected next-generation financial infrastructure while helping usher API, tool, and data markets into the era of automated settlement.

PlatON Attends Money20/20 Asia, Showcasing AI-Driven Innovation in On-Chain Payment Clearing

From April 21 to 23, 2026, PlatON showcased its complete agentic payment solution at Money20/20 Asia, held at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok, Thailand. Powered by Nexus, a programmable clearing layer, the solution enables any LLM agent to autonomously discover services, negotiate structured quotes, and settle on-chain payments in real time. Looking ahead, PlatON will continue to advance the real-world adoption of on-chain financial infrastructure and accelerate the development of a more open, efficient, and intelligent next-generation payment network.

Nexus Featured at Google Cloud Stablecoin Forum Hong Kong 2026, Demonstrating AI Payment Workflows

At Google Cloud Stablecoin Forum Hong Kong 2026, PlatON presented Nexus, its programmable clearing layer protocol, and demonstrated practical AI Agent workflows in payment scenarios. Through Nexus, LLM Agents can complete service discovery, quotation negotiation, and on-chain payment and settlement based on stablecoins, enabling a more automated transaction model.

As a clearing layer built for the AI economy, Nexus supports AI-native payments, enabling agents and automated systems to participate directly in transactions. By combining stablecoins with on-chain settlement capabilities, it provides a more efficient payment method. At the same time, by connecting the complete process of “discovery — negotiation — settlement,” Nexus enables a closed loop for automated transactions.

PlatON Co-Hosts “The Reserved Table” Closed-Door Exchange with Tether, StraitsX, and Others

Recently, during Money20/20 Asia in Bangkok, PlatON, together with Tether, Cregis, Width, StraitsX, and Lydian Labs, co-hosted “The Reserved Table,” a closed-door exchange event. The gathering brought together numerous fintech founders and industry leaders to discuss cutting-edge industry trends. Participants generally agreed that the next phase of financial innovation will be driven by real-world Web3 applications and stablecoin-centered infrastructure.

Siang, VP of TOPOS, stated: “AI and stablecoin payments are a natural fit because they are both programmable by default, Internet-global by design, and flexible across transaction size. Our recently launched AI product, NEXUS, elevates stablecoin payments from an ‘on-chain transfer tool’ to a ‘clearing layer for the AI economy,’ enabling AI Agents to discover services, execute transactions, and complete trusted settlement. Through layered authorization and escrow mechanisms, NEXUS also brings automated payments into commercially viable and risk-controllable Agent Commerce scenarios.”

PlatON Ecosystem Project Monallo AI Game Integrates Nexus Protocol Architecture, Advancing On-Chain AI Gaming and Payments into MVP Validation

The AI + Web3 platform Monallo, developed by the PlatON community, has completed its product structure upgrade and core module design. Its overall technical architecture has taken initial shape and has officially entered the MVP development stage. Built around a unified entry point of “AI Deploy + Nexus Payment,” the platform creates a complete closed loop from AI service deployment to game interaction and stablecoin monetization, and is expected to be officially launched on the PlatON network in the near future.

This iteration of Monallo focuses on a unified entry point for AI deployment and payments, an on-chain AI gaming engine, and an in-game purchase payment model. At the deployment and payment layer, Monallo will natively integrate Nexus’s stablecoin payment capabilities into the AI Deploy process, enabling services to be interactive and monetizable immediately upon deployment. At the AI gaming layer, Monallo is building a three-layer architecture consisting of Game Kernel + AI Adapter + Nexus Pay, supporting UGC co-creation gameplay, where AI Agents can participate and make decisions in real time based on a strategy engine. At the payment model layer, Monallo designs multi-touchpoint payment mechanisms across the full gaming process, with all transactions settled in real time through Nexus escrow contracts, forming a sustainable AI co-creation gameplay model.
