The impact of distributed storage of traffic data on the Web 3.0 ecology, the beginning of the transformation of the Internet economy
With the accelerated development of Web 2.0, the Internet has now entered the Web 3.0 era. We know that the essence of the Web 1.0 era is alliance. Static data reading and display was the most advanced information transmission method of Web 1.0 at that time. Web 1.0 opened the door to the Internet world for the first time. Then, with the emergence of the Web 2.0 ecology, the interactive effects of the Internet began to show, and everyone was able to freely build their own Internet value IP. Unfortunately, Web 2.0 has not brought direct economic effects to people. The emergence of Web 3.0 integrates the advantages of the previous two generations of Web, avoids the shortcomings, and returns the economic effects directly to the users themselves. Web 3.0 is a brand-new Internet application model that links information transmission and economic effects. We can understand Web 3.0 as intelligent interconnection.
In recent years, with the large-scale development of the flow economy, the flow has driven the release of productivity. Nowadays, the transformation of the digital economy has no time to delay. The large-scale expansion of traffic data has also revealed the drawbacks of traditional centralized storage, such as high storage costs, low security performance, and slow transmission efficiency. As the underlying infrastructure of the current Internet economy, traffic data plays a crucial decisive factor for the future Internet economic model. But how to solve the long-standing problems in the current traffic data storage market has been plagued many people. The emergence of Flowcoin may be able to solve this series of existing problems.
Flowcoin is a new application ecology that uses distributed storage solutions to solve flow data storage. Flowcoin provides a stable network environment for flow data storage by establishing a DSN retrieval network with high stability, security, and transparency. Compared with centralized and integrated data storage, the Flowcoin network uses ledger storage, that is, excluding centralized cloud storage service providers, and directly exchanges values between users. For example, user A wants to store traffic data and is willing to pay for the storage fee, user B provides storage space and performs traffic data storage for user A. And Flowcoin adopts the storage mechanism of space-time proof, which can effectively monitor user B who provides storage space in real time to prevent data storage interruption caused by human factors in the middle. During this period, all storage allocation is for each participant in the network. It’s all public. In each block, the network will check whether each required proof of distribution exists, check whether they are valid, and take corresponding measures: if any proof is lost or invalid, the network will punish storage by deducting part of the collateral User B. If a large amount of data is proved to be lost or the storage is invalid, the network will determine that the storage user B is faulty and set the order as failed, and re-launch a new order of the same fragment into the market. Ensure that user A who needs storage can meet the corresponding storage requirements. Under this scheme, value can be directly exchanged and market demand can be dynamically balanced, allowing users to achieve intelligent interconnection.
With the application of 5G, we have fully entered the era of the Internet of Everything, that is, the era of massive data storage. Everyday data is growing rapidly. The privacy, security, and value of data are particularly important. With the birth of blockchain, Web3.0 has a new definition, that is, value interconnection. Web3.0 will create a new digital economy system, create new business models and markets, and will bring convenience to the free flow of value. In the future, the transfer of value will be global, instant, free, and accessible to everyone. It will be more people-oriented, focusing on data security and privacy. The security and stability of data will be the underlying structure of the future development of the Internet, and the development of the traffic economy will promote the process of digital transformation in related industries. Data is an important “factor of production” in the Web3.0 era. Like the traditional “factors of production” of land, capital, and labor, it has circulation value and sustainable reproduction value. Flow data will also be the most important “factor of production” in the Internet economy. Therefore, whether flow data storage is reasonable, efficient, convenient and safe is indispensable. The emergence of Flowcoin is expected to break the long-standing technology in the current flow data storage market Disadvantages play a crucial decisive factor for the economic transformation of the Internet industry. With the continuous advancement of technology, Flowcoin will strengthen the stability of the overall structure of the DSN network, and provide feasible development strategy deployment, build a high-density centralized storage room, and empower the Internet economy by building a flow computing power network. Accelerate the operation of the Internet’s digital economy.

Cryptorefills launches x402 payments for AI agents, publishes agentic commerce reference
USDC payments on Base for AI agents at checkout, alongside open-source documentation of how merchants run agent-driven commerce.
Amsterdam, May 11th 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, 15:00 CEST. Cryptorefills has enabled x402 payments at checkout, allowing AI agents to pay for gift cards, mobile top-ups and eSIMs using USDC on the Base network. The protocol, developed by Coinbase and Cloudflare, lets autonomous software settle stablecoin transactions programmatically. Cryptorefills has also published an open-source operations reference for the merchant operations layer of agentic commerce.
x402 lets a software agent receive an HTTP 402 Payment Required response from a merchant, settle the requested amount in stablecoin, and complete the transaction in a single automated exchange. For Cryptorefills, checkout becomes a programmable endpoint that agents can call directly.
The x402 launch adds a second agent-payment rail to the platform. Cryptorefills released its Model Context Protocol server in October 2025, allowing agents to discover products, build orders, and complete purchases through MCP. x402 addresses a different pattern: the agent calls a Cryptorefills endpoint, receives payment terms, settles in USDC, and completes the request in one round trip. The two rails serve different agent contexts and run in parallel.
“We shipped x402 and open-sourced our merchant operations work in the same week on purpose. One is a payment rail, while the other is what a merchant needs around it to accept agent traffic. Agentic commerce is happening, and very little about the second part has been written down,” said Massimiliano Silenzi, CEO of Cryptorefills. “We’ve been running stablecoin checkout since 2018, and a lot of what we learned there carries over. We chose to publish what we’ve learned and continue building the rest openly.”
The reference repository, available at github.com/Cryptorefills/agentic-commerce, covers the operations surface that surrounds the protocol stack. Topics include catalogue discovery for agent buyers, settlement reconciliation across chains, quote-and-pricing handling, and delivery confirmations. Documentation is released under CC0; example code is Apache 2.0.
“In the repository we just open-sourced there are nine playbooks, the TypeScript schemas behind them, and five runnable examples. Two of them connect to our live MCP and x402 endpoints, so a developer can clone the repository and watch the agent-merchant exchange execute against production,” said Simonluca Landi, CTO of Cryptorefills.
Cryptorefills serves AI agents through three of the field’s emerging standards: MCP for context, Agent Skills for capability publishing, and x402 for stablecoin settlement.

Collaboration to focus on cost-effective capture and mineralization of biogenic CO₂ in Europe
Korea South, 11th May 2026, – SEOUL, South Korea & KORTRIJK, Belgium – South Korea’s ICEnergy and Belgium-based Emicap have partnered to deploy cryogenic carbon capture systems targeting biogenic CO₂ in Europe. The partnership combines ICEnergy’s proprietary capture technology with Emicap’s cryogenic R&D and market access, supported by Emicap’s sister company, LM Engineering, which provides industrial engineering and execution capabilities.
Dr. Sungho Park(icenergy0805@gmail.com), CEO of ICEnergy, stated that he hopes this partnership will enable ICEnergy and Emicap to take a further step toward realizing carbon neutrality in the European market. The collaboration comes at a pivotal moment following the successful demonstration of ICEnergy’s technology. Amid a rapidly expanding European market for biogenic CO₂ solutions, early deployment is critical to secure access to high-quality feedstocks and permanent storage pathways.
ICEnergy recently demonstrated a 10 ton/day cryogenic carbon capture system for both onshore and marine applications. The system converts flue gas CO2 directly into dry ice, avoiding the need for conventional separation and liquefaction steps. A key feature of the electrically driven process is the internal recovery and reuse of cold energy. By recycling this energy, external demand is reduced and consumption is focused on CO₂ conversion, resulting in approximately 30% lower energy use compared to conventional systems, supporting a low lifecycle carbon footprint.
Emicap integrates cryogenic CO2 capture with downstream applications by coupling emission sources from Waste-to-Energy and biomass plants to the carbonation of alkaline industrial residues such as steel slags and fly ash. To ensure seamless site-specific deployment, Emicap applies its cryogenic R&D expertise to tailor ICEnergy’s capture systems for these European industrial plants. This integration enables the permanent storage of CO2 while upgrading captured emissions and industrial residues into supplementary cementitious materials for use in low-carbon construction. By operating across the full value chain, Emicap helps offset capture costs, reducing reliance on institutional subsidies.
The partners are targeting removal of up to 200 kilotons of CO₂ annually by 2035, positioning the collaboration to contribute to industrial-scale, net-negative emissions.
