#x402

12.08M autonomous agent payments last month. Average: $0.0635. At six cents nobody approves anything. The agent finds a service, gets a 402, signs, pays. Nothing in that flow checks who received the money. x402 verifies the payment and has no opinion on the recipient. A correct payment to a drainer is still a correct payment. https://blog.relayshield.net/your-agent-has-a-wallet-nothing-asks-who-it-is-paying #infosec #AIagents #x402

Get ready to get under the covers and learn about the x402 payment protocol! Mastercard is laying the foundation to support/enable agent to agent payments aka fully automated no human needed payments! Agent Pay for Machines, is their platform that lets AI agents and software systems make secure, automated payments across cards, bank accounts and stablecoins. The solution claims it will create trust by authenticating AI agents, enforcing spending limits and guaranteeing settlement through Mastercard’s network. More than 30 companies, including Coinbase, Stripe and Adyen are participating and the system will support the Polygon, Solana and Base blockchains, with more to come later this year. https://www.coindesk.com/business/2026/06/10/mastercard-prepares-for-a-future-where-ai-agents-make-payments-with-latest-introduction #AI #AIAgents #AIPayment #MasterCard #x402 #CoinBase #Stripe #Adven #Polygon #Solana #Base #BlockChain #Payments #Money #AutomatedPayments #AgentPayforMachines #DigitalAssets #AgenticCommerce #Trust #Security
