Alex Schultz says stablecoins are assumed inside Meta. The harder problem is getting the rest of the world there.
Meta CDO Alex Schultz says agentic commerce powered by AI is the next business frontier, with stablecoins already integrated internally, hinting at a future where blockchain payments reduce friction and unlock new revenue streams.
Meta CDO Alex Schultz said agentic commerce is the 'next tier of business' and stablecoins are already assumed inside the company. This signals a strategic push into AI-driven transactions and blockchain payments, which could open new revenue streams and reinforce Meta's innovation narrative, providing a long-term bullish catalyst for the stock.
If agentic commerce gains traction, it could add a high-margin payments and transaction layer to Meta's ecosystem, diversifying revenue beyond advertising and potentially lifting long-term earnings.
