Hot Topics: IBM’s $11B Move, 2026 Tech Predictions & Stablecoin Explosion with Sandy Carter

DescriptionWelcome to this episode of The Edge of Show, where we dive into the forces reshaping AI, Web3, and the future of digital trust. We're joined by Sandy Carter to break down the biggest shifts happening right now in AI, blockchain, and digital identity. We get into IBM’s $11B Confluent acquisition, how AI agents are already making decisions inside major companies, and why stablecoins just surpassed Visa and Mastercard in global settlement volume.

We also cover Sandy’s predictions for 2026: the rise of autonomous agents, the trust layer blockchain provides, decentralized robots, and why every company will need real-time verification. Plus, Sandy gives us an inside look at what’s next for Unstoppable Domains as identity moves fully on-chain.

If you want a clear, no-nonsense breakdown of where the digital economy is actually heading, this episode is it.
