Unlocking Agentic Payments: x402 & SKALE Revolutionize AI Agent Economy

The internet is transitioning from a click-and-pay model to one where software agents communicate directly with each other. Currently, AI agents face a challenge: traditional online payment systems are built for humans, not machines. Agentic payments aim to solve this by enabling real-time, automated transactions between agents, allowing them to pay for resources as needed and without human intervention. x402 is the protocol facilitating these payments natively within the internet, with SKALE serving as the gas-free blockchain enabling zero-cost & verifiable payment rails for these autonomous systems.
