This shift from traditional SaaS contracts to per-call micropayments eliminates procurement cycles and minimum spend requirements, fundamentally reshaping how AI infrastructure is monetized. The milestone signals that blockchain-native payments have matured from experimental fringe technology to mainstream production infrastructure.
