New Platform for AI Services
The x402 protocol, backed by Coinbase, has launched a new platform called Agent.market.
It works as an app store where AI agents can access tools and services across different categories.
How the System Works
The protocol allows instant payments using both crypto and traditional systems. This makes it easier for bots to pay for services on demand.
Agent.market organizes services into areas like data, infrastructure, social tools, and trading.
Growing Ecosystem of AI Agents
There are already thousands of active AI agents using the system, generating millions of transactions.
This shows early demand for automated, machine-driven interactions online.
A New Business Model
The platform introduces a model where services can charge per use, which may create new revenue streams for online businesses.
It also lowers barriers for developers by removing the need for complex setup processes.
