ROUND
18 MONTHS
TARGET RUNWAY
This is an expression-of-interest stage, not an offer. Investment would be in the business developing Internet USD, not a purchase of $i_USD.
The opportunity
The Internet Has Money.
It Doesn't Yet Have Internet-Native Money.
The internet transformed how information moves.
AI is transforming how intelligence is created and consumed.
But online money still depends heavily on fragmented payment systems, intermediaries, banking hours, borders and infrastructure designed before the internet economy existed.
Internet USD is being built around a simple thesis:
Money should move across the internet as naturally as information does.
CONNECTED THROUGH $i_USD (proposed)
What we are building
More Than a Stablecoin.
$i_USD is intended to become the settlement asset at the centre of a broader internet-native payment ecosystem.

Why now
A New Economy Is Emerging.
Stablecoins
Dollar-denominated digital assets are becoming increasingly important infrastructure for moving value online.
AI Agents
Autonomous software increasingly needs the ability to purchase data, computing resources, APIs and digital services.
Programmable Commerce
Payments are becoming software infrastructure.
Global Internet Economy
Businesses, workers, creators and applications increasingly operate across national borders.
Internet USD sits at the intersection of stablecoins, payments, APIs and autonomous commerce.
The machine economy · Concept
When Software Can Pay Software.
Internet USD is being designed not only for today's payment economy, but for an internet where autonomous applications and machines increasingly transact with each other.
Designed for what comes next
An internet where value moves at the speed of a request.
Micropayments × API Payments × Agent Commerce × Machine-to-Machine Payments
Illustrative future workflow only. Agent payments are conceptual; no live API, settlement service or deployed payment flow is implied.
Potential business model
Building a Payment Network, Not Just a Token.
The following are potential future business-model components, not current or guaranteed revenue.
Merchant Payments
Payment-processing infrastructure.
Business Infrastructure
Business accounts and payment services.
Developer APIs
Usage-based developer infrastructure.
Cross-Border Payments
Payment and conversion services.
Agent Payments
Machine and AI payment infrastructure.
Reserve Economics
Potential economics associated with permitted reserve arrangements, subject to applicable regulation and final structure.
No revenue is represented as existing or assured. All categories depend on product development, commercial adoption and applicable regulatory permissions.
