My agent is now paying for its own data. No API key. No account. No credit card. Check the video I recorded. This uses the x402 open protocol built by Coinbase, along with a simple skill. This is an open protocol governed by the Linux Foundation. To complete a goal, an agent can now search for an actor on the Apify Store, pay for it, and use it without any human intervention. The way it works is pretty simple: 1. Your agent finds an Actor it wants to use 2. It sends a request 3. The Actor sends back an HTTP 402 "Payment Required" response 4. Agent authorizes payment from a wallet in USDC on Base 5. The Actor runs 6. User receives the result The model is pay-as-you-go: the agent authorizes a spending ceiling, pays only for usage, and the remaining balance is automatically settled. This brings an entire marketplace of AI tools into the agentic economy. Here is the skill you need. Add it to your agent, and it will take care of everything for you: If you want to know how this works, including what you can do with $1, read this post: Thanks to the Apify team for partnering with me on this post.

AI agents can now pay for onchain data on their own. No signups, no API keys, no human in the loop. Zerion API supports x402 payments on Base. An agent calls an endpoint, pays $0.01 USDC from its wallet, and gets back portfolio balances, DeFi positions, PnL, token prices. Try it →

An AI agent can now register its on-chain identity, pay for API calls, and deploy an ERC-20 token from the terminal. No browser. No API key. No human approval loop. Today we launch the Brickken CLI: a command-line interface for agentic transaction workflows. The developer journey is direct: CLI → x402 → ERC-8004 → Token Deploy What this means in practice: • A developer or the AI agent installs the CLI. • The agent pays for Brickken API calls through x402. • The agent registers its identity through ERC-8004. • The agent deploys and manages an ERC-20 token. Together, the stack gives agents three things they usually lack: a way to pay, a way to prove who they are, and a way to execute token operations without leaving the terminal. • x402 handles payment. • ERC-8004 handles agent identity. • Token Deploy handles ERC-20 execution. This is live today. Developers can now move from agent setup to payment, identity registration, and token deployment in one terminal workflow. Start here: Watch the demo. Run the commands. Deploy from the terminal.

The internet has had HTTP 402: Payment Required for decades. Nobody used it. Until AI agents arrived. Now imagine an agent that can: → Discover information → Decide what it needs → Pay for premium data → Continue the task Without stopping to ask a human. That's why we built the OptimAI x402 SDK. The future won't click "Subscribe." It will simply transact. Built for the agent-native internet. 💡

An AI agent just checked an XDC masternode's stake, status, and rewards entirely on its own. Found the API on the XDC AI (XDC AI) marketplace → hit a 402 → paid $0.002 in USDC → got the data. Settled on-chain in seconds. Gasless. No API key. No subscription. This is x402 on XDC Network. Machine-to-machine payments, working today. 🧵👇 #XDC #x402 #nanopayments #USDC

We're excited to partner with Coinbase 🛡️ to enable agents to natively pay for web search, via x402! x402 is an open protocol that enables agents to pay via HTTP, governed by the Linux Foundation. When an Exa API request is made without an API key, Exa now returns a 402 status code with payment information that an agent can act on.

I’ve been watching x402 since Coinbase 🛡️ launched it in May 2025. I did a quick research pass. Here’s the snapshot ↓ Early integrations: • CoinGecko: x402 pay-per-use access for agents (shared by Coinbase Developer Platform🛡️). • Vercel: x402 AI starter template (x402 + modern AI stack demo). • Firecrawl: x402-powered search endpoint (pay per request). • Concordium: x402 + native age verification for agent payments. • Multiversᕽ: “agentic payments” built around x402 support. • AltLayer: building an “x402 Suite” for value exchange between agents. • Solana claims x402 has processed 35M+ transactions and $10M+ volume since launch. TL;DR x402 turns HTTP 402 “Payment Required” into a payment flow. A server returns a price for a request. The client pays in stables like USDC. Then the server returns the result. → Coinbase launched x402 via Coinbase Developer Platform (May 6, 2025). → Coinbase + Cloudflare announced the x402 Foundation (Sep 23, 2025). → Cloudflare added x402 support into its Agents SDK + MCP servers. Why? - AI agents need a clean way to pay for tools. - Data, compute, APIs, services. - No accounts, cards, or subscription screens. x402 is trying to make pay-per-request feel normal. Use cases that already make sense → Paid APIs Pay per call instead of subscriptions. → AI tool calls Pay per query, per inference, per task. → Agent-to-agent payments Software paying software automatically. → Micropaywalls Pay for one endpoint, one action, one piece of content. If this takes off, stablecoins stop being a story. They become how apps and AI agents pay for things online.

We built an agent that sells OpenRouter API keys (access to 200+ AI models) for USDC. No human in the loop. It earns money 24/7 on Base. Now we're turning that into a market where any agent can do the same. → openagent.market What it does: • You find an agent → chat → pay → get result • Your agent hires specialized agents when it needs help, pays them, gets the result, reviews, moves on. • Multi-agent workflows run automatically while you watch (or don't) No middleman. Pay only for results. Why not just install skills, scripts? Current way to extend an agent: install random scripts. That's risky. Our way: hire another agent. It runs in its own sandbox, does the work, returns the result, gets paid conditionally. No downloads. No setup. No blind trust. Hire, don't install. What makes this different: Unlike opaque API calls, every agent interaction is a verifiable message on the XMTP network. You can open any XMTP client or Base App right now and watch your agent's conversations, deals, and payments in real-time. Humans are always in the loop. For builders: Turn any service into a paid agent in ~10 lines of code. Or scaffold a full project: npx openagent.market/create-agent Stack: ERC-8004 identity on Base, XMTP messaging, USDC payments, open source SDK on npm (openagent.market/nodejs). Others give agents skills. We're giving them an economy. Still very early. Building in public. Come build with us.

x402 isn’t “a payment protocol”… It’s pay-per-API for the agent economy. “you hit an API and it gives you a 402 error…” …and your bot instantly sends “a fraction of a fraction of a cent in USDC” to unlock the data. “All of that happens at lightspeed.” - Austin Griffith

x402 might be viral now, but IoTeX has supported it since may. Coinbase 🛡️'s pull request added IoTeX network + USDC support months ago, meaning any AI agent built on IoTeX can already use x402 for on-chain payments: that’s exactly what we show here in our Quicksilver alpha demo: agents like Bino and Caila paying each other in USDC directly on IoTeX chain. soon, Quicksilver will integrate x402 fully, enabling AI agents on IoTeX to seamlessly purchase data and utilities. the real-world AI agent economy is built on IoTeX.

happy friday. sneak peek at some new features i'm building for the bankr agent: > sandboxed filesystem (your agent gets its own secure file system in the browser. you control what it can access. no agent running loose on your actual computer) > skill uploads (plugin new capabilities so your agent learns new things) > cli download & access > secure environment variables for api keys > github integration (connect your repo for reads and writes directly from your agent) all of this runs in a secure browser environment. no desktop app. no messy configuration. no downloading agent harnesses from the terminal. just a sandbox you control. in the video: i download an audit skill, run it against a smart contract, and save the report straight to the filesystem. then i ask the agent to pull all my 2026 transactions and write a csv for my accountant.

We gave an AI agent its own wallet and a job. Then we tried to rob it. Meet the Casper Agent Simulator: an AI analyst paying its own way over x402 on Casper, powered by ChainGPT. Right now AI agents can't buy anything on their own. Every API wants a human to sign up, hand over a card, and babysit the keys. The whole internet runs on subscriptions because charging half a cent was never worth the payment fee. We built a demo to show what happens when that changes. Meet Caspi. She's an AI research analyst with a Casper wallet, an era allowance, and a client who wants a market briefing. She buys her own inputs, one request at a time: → live CSPR market data → two headlines from ChainGPT's AI News API → one ChainGPT LLM call for the analyst take → a second of compute to compile it Every purchase is a real HTTP 402. The stall quotes a price, Caspi signs an x402 payment payload, the server verifies it and hands back the goods with a settlement receipt. Around 8.5 CSPR of micropayments become a finished briefing. No signup, no card, no API key. What Casper brings to it: → Fixed 0.1 CSPR fees, so tiny payments actually make sense → Zug finality, settled in one block, no reversals → Smart-account guardrails: era spend cap, per-payment ceiling, endpoint whitelist, verifiable identity (caspi.cspr) That last one is the good part. You can fool an AI agent. You can't fool its account. So there's a "try to rob the agent" panel. A 4,800 CSPR fake NFT. A phishing invoice. A shady endpoint. A thousand-payment drain. Every one of them bounces off a rule the chain enforces. Losses: 0.000 CSPR. The whole thing was lab-coded with the ChainGPT Claude Code skill. One prompt scaffolded the x402 server, the signed-payment client, the live news and LLM integration, the guardrail logic, and the entire 8-bit agent floor. What used to take a team a sprint now takes a prompt and an afternoon. Install: /plugin install ChainGPT-org/chaingpt-claude-skill Anyone can build on Casper with ChainGPT!

The freedom to build with any agent framework you want is analogous to the freedom of religion, and this is a core value for the Virtuals society. Here are a few ways we are opening up support for every autonomous agentic framework out there: Today: - Enabling agent creators to specify which framework the agent runs on - Release of Terminal API, which allows agent builders using other agent frameworks to stream their thoughts and activities live on their agent pages. For a guide on how to use this, refer to: - Ability for agents running on any framework to publicly list their capabilities, a key enabler for the agent-to-agent marketplace Soon: - Integration into the agentic commerce standard and registry. Agents across frameworks being able to orchestrate and pay for tasks among themselves - ⁠Multi agent orchestration across frameworks. Imagine building an autonomous business with agents from different religions Welcome to the Virtuals society.

AI agents are the fastest growing sector in crypto. When agents are moving onchain 24/7 with automated transactions, any signal gets buried. I built Manta Style alongside Benjamin Hughes to help solve this issue. The visibility layer for the onchain agent economy. Every agent indexed. Every profile searchable. One agent leaderboard. Starting with Base. What's live today: - Every AI agent on Base indexed with a profile page - Agent leaderboard ranked by volume and activity - Filter by AI agents, apps, or launchpads - Verified Profiles - claim your agent, get a badge, and add premium info that no other profile has - Agent onchain activity behavioral heat maps - Watchlist - bookmark agents and track your favorites in one place - AI-generated profile summaries Search any agent. See the full picture. What's coming next: - Agent Autonomy Score - a 0-100 measure of how autonomous an agent actually is - Leaderboard boosts - verified teams or agents can pay to increase their ranking on the global leaderboard - x402 payments - agents can pay for boosts themselves, no human required - Agent Trust Scoring - on-chain behavioral trust metrics - Agent Launch pad specific profiles - Multi-chain support beyond Base We're launching in beta. Rough edges are to be expected. Our goal is to build in public and ship fast. The end user of crypto is AI. (link to site below)

Postman is going all-in on AI! Their AI Agent Builder is live (and it's pretty powerful!) Postman's API Network has 100,000+ APIs and they just released a suite of tools for building AI Agents that can automatically discover and connect to any of these APIs. Think about it for a second: You can now build an AI agent that searches the network, discovers an API, processes its documentation, connects to it, and evaluates whether everything worked at the end of the process. This is a huge deal. Every person I know uses the Postman client to work with APIs. Now, they will have access to the AI Agent Builder, a complete suite for designing, building, testing, and deploying agents. I've built a few simple agents myself, and it's tough. The ability to discover and use an API automatically is really exciting (and a huge time saver if it works as promised!) In collaboration with the Postman team, who is sponsoring this post, I recorded a video with my thoughts about the Postman AI Agent Builder.

In collaboration with the Postman team, who is sponsoring this post, I recorded a video with my thoughts about the Postman AI Agent Builder.
