We discuss the emergence of an Agentic Economy, driven by advancements in large language models and AI agent frameworks, which is projected to grow significantly. This new economy, characterized by autonomous AI agents performing economic actions, creates a "profound architectural vacuum" in existing financial infrastructure. We introduce Lava, a proposed foundational protocol designed to fill this void by providing a trust layer with verifiable machine identity and a transaction layer for programmable, M2M value exchange. Lava aims to become the "TCP/IP for value" in this autonomous future, effectively monetizing through transaction fees and aiming to be the category leader for Agentic Finance, evolving to support the Internet of Things and other autonomous systems.
