Agentic payments on the XRP Ledger have surged from about 1 million in July to over 13 million transactions, driven by AI-related demand. This rapid growth, highlighted by former Ripple exec Chandler Fang and RippleX's J.A. Akinyele, reflects increasing adoption with over 160 merchants using XRP and RLUSD for settlements.

This growth phase aims to bring more real-world merchants and services onchain, expanding XRP's role in the AI agent economy.
