Polygon’s Stablecoin Payments Push: Marc Boiron on RWAs, AI, and the Future of Web3

May 16, 2026 | 12:17 PM UTC

In this episode, CoinGape CEO Sunil Sharma sits down with Marc Boiron, CEO of Polygon Labs, to explore why payments infrastructure, stablecoins, and real-world asset tokenization represent the next major wave of Web3 growth.

Marc explains that fast and cheap transactions are no longer a competitive edge, every chain offers them now. Polygon’s real bet is on becoming the backbone of enterprise payments. Having already processed trillions in stablecoin transactions, Polygon is positioning itself where banks, fintechs, and governments are quietly heading.

The conversation breaks down Polygon’s Open Money Stack, a one-stop shop solution that reduces blockchain deployment time from months down to weeks. It also mentions how AI agents are being tied into smart wallets to automate on-chain payments, a combo Marc believes is inevitable.

The horizon is dominated by three themes: on-chain payments, AI-driven financial automation, and the fusion of seamless user experiences with decentralized infrastructure. If you want to see where real crypto adoption is happening, this episode delivers.
