Every API behind a paywall needs a credit card, a KYC check, and a human in the loop.
Bitcoin + Lightning needs none of that.
The first truly autonomous AI agents won't ask permission to transact. They'll just stream sats for compute, pay for data, and settle in real time. No banks. No approvals. No middlemen.
The internet gave machines a voice. Bitcoin gives them a wallet.
And once agents can earn, spend, and save independently... they stop being tools and start being economic actors.
Few are thinking about what happens next.
