When an agent buys something for you, who holds the money?
Not the seller, who could keep it. Not the agent, which is software. Not a platform that rewrites the rules once it has you.
A contract neither side controls.

Boson holds the money in a contract neither side controls, releases it when both sides are sorted, and opens a dispute path when they are not.

Visa, Mastercard and Ant are converging on Know-Your-Agent standards. Identity answers who the agent is.
The other half is what happens when the order goes wrong: money held, a dispute path, a resolution both sides verify.

Held automates the case handler, not the ombudsman.
If the two sides cannot agree, the clerk assembles the file: evidence, timeline, both positions, what is still contested. A person gets a finished case, not a blank page.

Agents settled 4.7m payments on x402 in one month, stablecoin volume up 51%.
Machines already pay. What's missing is what happens when it never arrives.
Money held in a contract neither side controls, until both sides are sorted.

Same case, one photo different.
Carton intact: damage before posting. 30% back to the buyer.
Carton crushed: damage in transit. 22% back.
The number barely moved. The reasoning moved, and named the carton. Held's mediator, built on Boson.

Only 23% of merchants can tell an agent purchase from a human one. 38% expect agents past 15% of sales within two years.
Demand is arriving faster than the trust.
Every agent purchase on-chain, money held until sorted.

Sharp framing, thank you. Payment settles in seconds; delivery doesn't. Boson's decentralized Agentic Commerce Protocol escrows value and releases it on fulfilment — buyers, sellers and AI agents trade trust-minimized. Tokenising the asset is step one; redeeming it is the product.
Project Spotlight: Boson Protocol
Onchain payment is instant.
Real-world delivery isn't.
@BosonProtocol is building decentralized infrastructure designed to make commerce between humans, AI agents, and real-world assets work without relying on trust between counterparties.

Held is a ladder of four rungs. It just works. The watchdog raises it. The mediator proposes. A person decides.

Juniper Research forecasts agentic commerce at $1.5 trillion by 2030.
Agents can already find and pay. What's missing is trust: recourse when the order goes wrong.

The AI in Held does everything except decide.
It reads the evidence, asks for what's missing, proposes one percentage and shows its reasoning. It holds no tools that can touch the chain. Either side can say no.

If a parcel never arrives and you do nothing, the seller is paid. That's how most consumer protection fails.
Held watches the tracking and raises the dispute before the window closes. Tested on a real parcel that went silent.

Never arrives? The case is raised for you. Arrives damaged? An AI proposes a split.

Held is built on Boson: escrow, dispute and mutual-resolution primitives via the core SDK, gasless for the buyer.
It's the trust layer agentic commerce needs, working with a human buyer today. The same rungs hold when the buyer is an agent.
