2026 is not business as usual. In this episode of the Full Shard Podcast , Lucian and Beniamin Mincu are joined by VP of Business Development Daniel Serb to unpack a world shaped by accelerating AI, volatile markets, and structural resets across industries. They discuss the rise of agentic systems, the emergence of machine-to-machine commerce, and why settlement speed and scale suddenly matter in a way they didn’t before. From agentic payments and commerce protocols to the positioning of Supernova, the conversation centers on building future-proof infrastructure for a time where demand for it finally arises. A wide-angle conversation about what’s breaking, what’s emerging, and where the next wave may land.
