    > To be clear, all the payments so far have come from my own agents. No search crawler is turning up and paying me. The payments also use testnet USDC, which means the tokens have no real monetary value.

    Looks like a great way forward in general. But content/service has to be unique and of enough quality that agent users will allow their agents to pay.
