People starting to realize that x402 is not so useful right now because most Crypto AI agents are useless In order for the AI agents to be useful, we need to make them solve real problems, we need tailored AI workflows and products that actually increase productivity & reduce
x402 Thesis x402 acts as the payment rails for microservices — yes... this is only the rail that enables to seamlessly pay other agents using stablecoins In order to have a full agentic economy, you need auxiliary infrastructure, quality services, and trust/verifiability layer

@gkisokay It'll likely be a mixed of categories Defi = crypto #1 PMF — AI systems that can surface Defi value prop the most to enterprise & retail users would get pieces of the cake Likely won't be 1 single player but an amalgamation of services e.g. Defi protocols + Orchestrator + AI

@Defi0xJeff Most people are realizing x402 alone isn’t enough — before we pay AI agents, we need to trust them. Who verifies their work? What’s the scope, KPI, or refund policy if they fail? How do we track their reputation, prevent hallucination, or stop compromised agents from draining

@Defi0xJeff great read not all agents are built the same DeFAI is the true value prop for retail

@Defi0xJeff How about this, multi model LLM access without any API keys. https://t.co/1Vbs4f1njE
We’ve open-sourced JATEVO-x402, an AI inference API that uses the x402 protocol. It allows any client to use top-tier LLMs securely and instantly with no centralized identity, no billing system, and on-chain transparency. How it works? A thread 1/5 👇 https://t.co/btuakeyYxO

@Defi0xJeff I know one potential candidate for the last category if they keep executing: @comput3ai

@Defi0xJeff Check out $SLSH @getslesh @Defi0xJeff One of the only actual use cases for x402 and gaining adoption outside our crypto bubble for Agentic browser https://t.co/fOiIg7jLJk
x402 is cool… but where are the actual use cases? 👋 Meet $SLSH @getslesh— the first true Web3 Agentic Browser built for both crypto and normies. $SLSH is the web automation frontend for x402’s payment backend, powering a Solana-native vision of agents that browse, transact,

@Defi0xJeff @challaire @BioProtocol BioAgents are going to pace DeSci and x402 – @Aubrai_, @D1ckGPT, @BiomeAI and more soon

@Defi0xJeff interesting to hear what do you think/see as an example of plays of crypto AI for people outside of crypto

@Defi0xJeff No ser, you just need to pump them enough to cause FOMO. Actual utility never matters😂

@Defi0xJeff Give @atxp_ai a little more time to cook. Although much of this is already in there (or will be soon 😏)

@Defi0xJeff The real alpha’s with teams building useful, revenue-backed tools that solve actual problems The shift from hype to utility has officially begun.

@Defi0xJeff I have something for you @Defi0xJeff Onchain Commerce (non-custodial, neutral rails = no AML/KYC applies) with x402 for payment schema understandable for AI Agents = Agentic Commerce that doesn't require Agent to literally run a browser and click through the store's website.

@Defi0xJeff i only see valuable in terms of capital management, following strict conditions but overall great break down of a16z report

@Defi0xJeff The infrastructure needs to mature beyond just payments into trust, verification, and reputation.

@Defi0xJeff This breakdown of AI agents is fire! Spot on about bridging crypto & real-world utility. Big brain stuff!

@Defi0xJeff Totally agree, real utility beats hype every time. Let's build AI that actually solves problems.

@Defi0xJeff > most are netting in 6-7 figs ARR Which AI agent nets that? Virtuals ACP the most successful agents made no more than 13k so far (I guess 15-20k a year if this pace keeps going), rest do 1-3 figures

@Defi0xJeff Crypto AI hype is real, but most agents are basically doing busy work for dollars 💸. True moonshots come from AI that actually solves stuff-not just paying each other in x402. If your AI can do a human’s job 24/7 and doesn’t hallucinate, that’s the sauce. Otherwise, it’s just a
