Cloudflare to Launch NET Dollar Stablecoin for AI-Powered Payments

Cloudflare is preparing to enter the digital assets market with a new stablecoin called NET Dollar, designed to support instant payments for AI agents, developers, and online creators worldwide.

AI and Stablecoin Integration

NET Dollar will be fully backed by the US dollar and optimized for real-time settlement and programmable payments. The stablecoin is intended to power microtransactions, enabling AI agents to autonomously purchase goods, book services, and perform digital transactions without human intervention.

Cloudflare sees the stablecoin as a way to unlock new business models across the internet. Developers could integrate NET Dollar into applications for seamless monetization, while creators could receive direct compensation for content. The company also envisions AI-driven ecosystems where autonomous software programs transact on behalf of users, accelerating the shift to on-demand, pay-per-use internet services.

Stablecoin Market Competition

The launch of NET Dollar comes amid rising competition in the stablecoin sector. With global regulation taking shape and adoption surging, Cloudflare’s entry adds another major player to a market already valued at nearly $300 billion.

While no official launch date has been revealed, NET Dollar is expected to expand Cloudflare’s influence beyond cloud services into the rapidly growing AI-driven payments economy.
