Current x402 economics are broken and are masked by facilitators sponsoring all the costs. At somepoint that will end, and the costs will not be viable for microtxns. If you happen to see this issue, we are trying to come up with a solution. Feel free to reach out.

The x402 ecosystem is exploding, and the most telling proof is the number of teams integrating it directly into their products. Whether it’s APIs charging per request, compute providers charging per inference, or agents paying for data and tools as they operate, x402 has quietly
x402 is an emerging internet payment protocol designed for autonomous AI agents to make verifiable, automated, on-chain payments via standard web infrastructure. It’s part of a broader push to create a more intelligent, decentralized economy where machine agents can transact

agents will be the web apps of the future - users will not need to look at UIs. The next gen will be more used to command line prompts over screens. Our parents all read newspapers, we read virtual articles, they will read agent outputs.

Apps can now officially purchase Polymer credits for proofs via x402 on our accounts portal Excited for all the progress that can come with onchain payments and soon micropayments

action > inaction
One of my favorite lessons I’ve learnt from working with smart people: Action produces information. If you’re unsure of what to do, just do anything, even if it’s the wrong thing. This will give you information about what you should actually be doing. Sounds simple on the

$1 BILLION Total Value Transferred in just 3 months. Record time for an interop protocol. This is what 10x cheaper, 100x faster, and 1000x easier to use looks like. 1st of many milestones to come. This frequency needs to come down to $1B per second, and I know it will.
$1,000,000,000 TVT ✅ Polymer just hit 1 billion dollars of crosschain volume within 3 months of going live with Prove API. Here’s a look at our journey so far…and what to expect from us next. 🧵👇

Many teams are building with x402 - Polymer is implementing it into our Prove API. In order for it to be viable for our solution, we must ensure it as as fast, efficient, and trustworthy as possible.

"Incentives cover up a product problem" - ser @0xbodu speaking bars
"If this isn't significantly faster or cheaper than what I'm already using, we will not migrate." Tune into @0xbodu walk through how the Prove API was created, from feedback to full release Now on track to hit $1B in volume after just 3 months 🎙️⬇️

In 1933 and in 1971, money as we understood it ended. From Bitcoin’s genesis block on January 3rd, 2009 to now, we’ve been witnessing the transformation of money. Money as we understand it is ending before our eyes. With stablecoins, ai agents using x402, and the world coming
In 1971, the US ran out of money and defaulted on its debts. Now, they didn’t say it that way. But by moving away from the gold standard, money as we understood it ended. I expected the stock market to plunge, but it went on to rise nearly 25%. That surprised me. But when I

great episode with @0xbodu! super candid about the state of interop and where the value really lies. good to see them betting on proofs and bringing something novel to market. in today’s interop landscape, specialization is key - you have to own a vertical and be the best at
