Solana Foundation President Lily Liu highlights Solana's growing role as essential financial infrastructure for both global corporate payments and autonomous AI-driven economies.Summary
At Consensus Miami 2026, Solana Foundation President Lily Liu emphasized that increased stablecoin adoption by major firms like Western Union and Meta proves that blockchain networks are becoming practical global financial infrastructure. Liu argues that Solana's speed and low costs make it ideal for supporting 'agentic commerce,' where AI agents perform autonomous micropayments that are currently impractical on credit card rails. Looking forward, she positions blockchain as 'financial rails first and foremost,' with the long-term potential to establish global internet capital markets that bypass traditional barriers.
