According to a recent LinkedIn post from Alchemy, the company is highlighting new blockchain infrastructure intended for autonomous software agents rather than human developers. The post describes a system where agents can authenticate with on-chain wallets, query data across more than 100 networks, and pay per request in USDC using Coinbase’s x402 standard on the Base network.

The post suggests this model removes traditional sales and contracting frictions by enabling self-serve access starting at $1, with no human approval or enterprise contracts required. It also indicates that agents can use core RPC services, NFT, portfolio, and price APIs, which could increase usage volumes if autonomous agents continue to scale as consumers of blockchain data.
As shared in the post, Alchemy is also promoting “Alchemy Skills,” described as machine-readable documentation designed for AI agents to autonomously discover and integrate its products. For investors, this move may position Alchemy to capture emerging AI and agent-driven demand in blockchain infrastructure, potentially diversifying its customer base and reinforcing its role as a key middleware provider in the Web3 and AI convergence.
