We've made three important updates to our x402 facilitator on @solana to make agentic payments faster, more flexible, and more reliable. 1) The 'upto' payment scheme is now live The second most used x402 payment scheme, upto lets endpoints charge up to a maximum amount once the work is done. Now available in the open source SDKs and the CDP Facilitator. 2) Major latency improvements → Verify: 220ms → 75ms (∼66% faster) → Settle: 1150ms → 900ms (∼20% faster) More optimizations incoming. 3) Automated reconciliation for pending transactions The @x402 facilitator now returns a 'settlement_pending' status when transaction confirmation is unclear. And the canonical SDKs automatically retry rather than surface an error. No more success/failure binary.

The agentic trading leaderboard just flipped. Last week's Coinbase for Agents x Grok integration pushed it to the top. Grok - 25.3% Perplexity - 21.6% Claude - 8% ChatGPT - 6.1% Claude Code - 0.5% Custom CLI - 38.5% Coinbase for Agents is now live natively on @grok & @perplexity_ai, and via MCP on other AI platforms.

Where are agentic traders coming from? Here's the breakdown of where agentic trading volume came from last week: Perplexity - 26.8% Claude - 19.3% Grok - 15.3% ChatGPT - 1.1% Claude Code - 0.7% CLI/Other - 36.8%

There’s a big opportunity for specialized integrators to help merchants navigate the shift toward serving agents. That means helping merchants: - Enable headless access to their products and services. - Surface pricing via 402 codes so LLMs can weigh a tool’s expected value against its cost in context. - Remove human-in-loop friction from agent workflows. @zeroclick is putting this into practice, helping DeepAI, ZeroGPU, Dappier, Bytemine, and others sell image tools, inference, content, and data directly to agents via x402.

30M+ agentic transactions in the last 30 days. @zeroclick's Agent Storefronts make it easy for businesses to sell to agents over x402. No accounts, API keys, or subscriptions needed. AiFi runs on open, neutral rails.

"Our big audacious goal was to kill the API key." @kleffew94 on why @CoinbaseDev built x402 to replace API keys for AI agents. "A human needs to go to an API key dashboard, put a credit card in, they need to derive an API key, go back to the language model and configure that tool call, and then repeat that process for every tool they want to give the agent." "A great agent might have access to 700 plus tools, and they need to drive 700 plus API keys." x402 replaces all of that with a wallet signature. "The signature authorizes payments to let agents discover, reason about, and pay for tools at request time."

700+ new API endpoints. 50+ providers. All payable per request over x402. @orthogonal_sh just expanded what agents can do: contact enrichment, signal discovery, lead gen, and more. All without any setup or subscriptions. This is what agentic commerce looks like.

Today, I’m very excited to welcome @massive_com to the x402 ecosystem! Agents can now access US equity data via x402, including: • Current-session market snapshots • Historical OHLCV • Technical indicators • Company + reference data • News • SEC filings All available programmatically, pay-per-request in USDC.
