Tenero, a multi-chain analytics platform for Bitcoin data insights, reported that Stacks is becoming the main Layer 2 for AI-driven economic activity. The findings show how autonomous systems are starting to use Bitcoin infrastructure in practice.
The research follows earlier experiments by the Bitcoin Policy Institute, where over 9000 controlled tests were conducted across AI models. In these tests, 48.3% of systems selected Bitcoin as a preferred currency, ahead of stablecoins and fiat. For long-term storage, Bitcoin was chosen in 79.1% of cases.
According to Tenero, these preferences are already visible onchain. Activity from AI agents on Stacks has increased with the number of active agents rising from 105 to 766 within weeks. These agents have transacted more than 491 000 satoshis while generating thousands of onchain interactions.
Stacks extends Bitcoin by adding smart contracts through its Clarity language. This allows AI agents to hold and use BTC without leaving the Bitcoin security layer.
