The Intersection of Bitcoin and AI
summary
Albi ships an MCP server that lets AI agents make and receive Lightning payments, demoing a $1 payment, Bitrefill gift‑card purchases and PDF conversions paid on‑the‑fly, all via NOSTR Wallet Connect bridging ~10–20 wallets. Agents get budgets, subwallets and method restrictions; paid MCP turns any tool into a pay‑per‑use service that returns a Lightning invoice and verifies the hash before serving. The stack is open source and the demos work end‑to‑end.
