EigenCloud and Google Collaborate to Enhance Trust in AI-Driven Payments
EigenCloud has forged a strategic partnership with Google to integrate blockchain verifiability into AI-powered payment systems. The collaboration targets Google's Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol, embedding a programmable trust layer for autonomous AI agents. This move addresses critical challenges in task verification and cross-network payments as agent economies scale.
Google's Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), built on the x402 standard, enables blockchain-agnostic transactions. EigenCloud's blockchain infrastructure will provide audit trails to mitigate fraud risks in multi-agent applications—from financial services to prediction markets. The alliance signals growing institutional recognition of crypto-native solutions for AI coordination.
