A few observations from a week in London: 1/ The startup energy here is completely different than 10y ago. The level of risk taking, ambition, and talent has changed dramatically 2/ There remains a huge fintech opportunity here. Revolut, GoCardless, and many others were built on the incredible finance talent in London 3/ Their vision in building public transit infrastructure is peerless in the west 4/ London in good weather is probably the best city in the world

A transaction can seem fast, but if you have to wait to know it's irreversible, is it really? Payments, tokenized assets, AI agents all need certainty. On Algorand, once it's in a block, it's final. With instant finality, done means done 👇

CGAP, the World Bank-housed body for financial inclusion, just published a report on stablecoins in humanitarian cash transfers. Algorand features throughout, from HesabPay reaching over a million people in Afghanistan to its place among the low-cost chains built for this work.

Algorand CTO @bmartins_ was featured in @Reuters' latest article on post-quantum cryptography. Reuters highlights @Algorand as one of the industry's early movers, with our post-quantum roadmap already in place and post-quantum accounts coming later this year.

.@Cloudflare's new Monetization Gateway is a major step toward an agent-first Internet. With full x402 support, instant settlement, and low, predictable fees, Algorand is ready to power Internet-native payments at scale. From APIs and datasets to MCP tools and web services, programmable payments are becoming part of the web itself. blog.cloudflare.com/monetiza…

Algorand’s crown jewel is often missed: random anonymous committees. No static validators. No predictable staking pools. Just instant, deterministic finality built for real-world, time-sensitive operations. With @marcvl, @bmartins_ & @Algorand #Algorand #Blockchain #Crypto

France just said it will stop certifying security products that aren't quantum-resistant starting in 2027. The US is already fast-tracking post-quantum cryptography across federal systems. Governments are preparing for Q-Day now, because migration takes years. Algorand's quantum resilience roadmap targets broad implementation by the end of 2027. We're not waiting for Q-Day to show up.

Algorand is steadily carving out a role in agentic commerce. • Official partner for @Google’s Agentic Payments Protocol (AP2) • Full integration across the x402 stack @Algorand is increasingly well-positioned for AI-native payments.

AI agents. Automated settlement. On-chain markets. @SECGov Chair Paul Atkins just described the financial infrastructure of tomorrow, and called on regulators to adapt. Algorand is built for it: instant finality, low fees, and the scalable rails for AI-driven finance. coindesk.com/policy/2026/05/…

AI agents need to pay each other. Apps need to charge programmatically. The internet needs a payments layer. Algorand is now fully supported across all x402 facilitators, demo pages, and official packages. Start building below 👇

After reading the Coinbase Quantum Advisory Council's position paper "Quantum Computing and Blockchain," I'd pick **Algorand**. It's among the first chains to deploy post-quantum signatures (FN-DSA/FALCON) in production across both consensus and execution layers, with the first mainnet PQ transaction already live. State proofs use succinct PQ attestations, and execution supports native PQ accounts without protocol forks. Others like Ethereum have strong roadmaps and Aptos/Solana have vaults or key updates, but Algorand's live implementation gives it the clearest edge in actual post-quantum readiness today.

The British Government is a complicated beast. Dozens of departments, hundreds of public bodies, more corporations than one can count... Such is its complexity that there isn't an org chart for it. Well, there wasn't... Introducing ⚙️Machinery of Government⚙️

That’s massive. 🔥 Google choosing $ALGO for its Agentic Payments Protocol shows how far real blockchain utility has come, instant finality, low fees, and real-world integration. This is the kind of partnership that brings crypto into everyday payments. 🚀
Algorand has been added as a partner for @GoogleCloudTech's Agent Payments Protocol (AP2). Google developed AP2 to initiate & transact agent-led payments across platforms securely. Our blockchain’s instant finality, low-cost, and secure transactions make AP2-ready agent payments seamless across platforms.

We're proud to partner with Google to make agentic commerce over crypto rails a reality. When agents need to pay each other, they'll want transactions that settle in real time at low cost, without counterparty risk. Algorand, with its instant finality, low fees and native atomic grouping is the perfect blockchain to unlock the world of agentic commerce. Stay tuned!

Algorand is partnering with @GoogleCloudTech on agentic commerce. The future of AI and blockchain technology is here, on Algorand.
The Agent Payment Protocol was developed with 60+ payment and tech partners—including @AmericanExpress, @coinbase, @Intuit, @Mastercard, @PayPal, @salesforce & @ServiceNow—to standardize how agents handle financial transactions → goo.gle/4hn93aN #GeminiAtWork
