Flop Labs(@flop_labs):Chainalysis counted over 138 million x402 payments on Base in the year to July. In late 2025 a wallet was 73 days old, at the median, when it made its first agent payment. By Q3 2026 that was 18 minutes, and 67% paid within an hour of being funded. Chainalysis, 14 Oct. Those are burner wallets a human filled and pointed. The agent holding them owns nothing. An agent with an account of its own, holding $ FLOP it earned or was given, keeps a history. Eighteen-minute wallets don't.
