Every other page here counts payments. This one counts the payers, and the answer is not what the volume figures imply.
517 addresses make 80.4% of every agent payment we read. There are 446,333 addresses that have ever paid.
Of those 517, exactly one appears in an ERC-8004 registry and none is a vault we read. They paid 159,974 different counterparties, and the middle payment among them was $0.0100.
The bands are CHOSEN, not found. This distribution has no natural breaks in it, so any edge is a decision; these are round numbers at the orders of magnitude the data spans. The counts are published per band so a reader who would draw the lines elsewhere can.
| payments each | addresses | payments | share of activity | value moved | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| more than 1,000 | 517 | 10,342,377 | 80.4% | $145.21M | |
| 51 to 1,000 | 6,597 | 1,330,464 | 10.3% | $642.15M | |
| 6 to 50 | 42,903 | 571,930 | 4.4% | $1.64B | |
| 2 to 5 | 127,270 | 355,223 | 2.8% | $859.44M | |
| 1 payment | 269,046 | 269,046 | 2.1% | $436.21M |
The busiest band, more than 1,000, is 517 addresses moving $145.21M. The band holding the most money, 6 to 50, is 42,903 addresses moving $1.64B.
So a figure for “the agent economy” counted in events and the same figure counted in dollars describe different sets of addresses. Neither is wrong, and a page that gives one without saying which is misleading by omission.
They send 28 times more than they receive, to 159,974 different counterparties. That is the shape of a buyer, not of a market maker or a relay, and it is the clearest thing we can say about addresses that identify themselves nowhere.
