Agentic AI is shifting from experiment to production. Standards such as AP2 (Agent Payments Protocol) are emerging for agentic payments. But as agents move from demos to real economic activity, they hit a fundamental infrastructure gap: where can they execute properly?

What Verifiable Agents Actually Need

For agents to operate reliably, they need three things:

Low-latency finality

Agents execute transactions, confirm payments, and log interactions in real time. Waiting 12 seconds for Ethereum finality or 2.5 seconds for Solana breaks multi-step workflows. Sub-second confirmation keeps agents moving instead of waiting on settlement.

Predictable fees

Volatile gas costs break agent logic. An agent authorized to spend $50 can't operate where transaction fees swing from $0.10 to $15 based on network congestion. Agents need stable, low costs they can model in code and respect in spending limits.

Stateful, auditable ledgers

Agents make decisions beyond simple value transfers. Every important action (data queries, API calls, user interactions, payments) should leave a verifiable record. Stateful logs enable agent behavior to be audited, proven, and trusted at scale.

Traditional blockchains solve payments. Production agents need execution infrastructure.

How Alpha Mainnet Closes the Gap

Alpha Mainnet addresses each requirement with purpose-built architecture:

Sub-second finality through QBFT consensus

One-second block times with finality anchored to Ethereum give agents production-grade speed with L1 security. Agents commit state quickly and move to the next step without waiting.

Predictable fees via METIS settlement

Transaction costs stay low and consistent across Metis SDK networks like Hyperion. Agents can budget accurately, price actions transparently, and enforce spending limits programmatically.

Stateful ledger through DATs

Data Anchoring Tokens (DATs) are onchain objects that record agent activity. Interactions become permanent, verifiable records instead of disappearing as temporary logs. When agents like Lazbubu chat with users, those interactions turn into traceable assets anchored onchain through DATs.

The Complete Execution Layer

Alpha Mainnet is where agents graduate from testnet to live economic participants. The infrastructure supports:

Full workflow deployment

Agents operate as complete systems spanning multiple functions. Developers build end-to-end workflows: data ingestion through Alith SDK, payment processing via GMPayer, interaction logging through DATs. Then they observe how these systems perform under real load and real usage.

Economic accountability

Validators stake tokens to secure AI data pipelines, introducing economic consequences for failures. Agents operate within systems designed for both accountability and availability.

Decentralized governance for disputes

When agents interact with datasets, ownership questions emerge. iDAO-led governance on Alpha Mainnet handles decentralized arbitration, creating resolution mechanisms that scale with agent activity.

Cross-chain settlement

Agents often operate across multiple execution environments. Alpha Mainnet enables METIS settlement across Metis SDK blockchains like LazAI and Hyperion, creating seamless value flow between agent ecosystems.

DATs: How Agent Activity Becomes Verifiable

Data Anchoring Tokens make agent activity verifiable. When an agent processes a request, the DAT captures:

• The interaction itself
• Timestamp and execution context
• Provable linkage to the agent's state
• Economic attribution for value created

DATs transform ephemeral agent activity into persistent, tradable assets. Developers can tokenize AI datasets and models as verifiable assets with clear ownership. Users earn real rewards for interactions. Participation carries lasting value.

DATs provide a fundamentally different approach to accountability. The ledger records agent decision-making alongside value transfer.

From Testnet to Economic Reality

Alpha Mainnet marks LazAI's transition to full economic operation. Users bridge from Andromeda, pay gas in $METIS, and every transaction reflects genuine onchain activity. Agent interactions evolve from experimental to assetized, creating the foundation for an aligned AI economy where data has measurable value and ownership is provable.

The infrastructure gap that kept agents in testnet is now closed.

Agents are moving to production. Alpha Mainnet provides the execution layer they need to operate verifiably.

Developers can start building with the LazAI Docs and Alith Framework. Join the Telegram community and help shape the era of verifiable agents.
