Autonomous AI agents paying for APIs—anyone experimenting with x402?

Hi everyone,

I recently learned about x402 payments, which allow AI agents to autonomously pay for APIs or services without human intervention. The workflow seems to be:

  1. Agent requests a service → receives a 402 payment required
  2. Agent pays via a connected wallet → retries request with proof of payment
  3. Payment is settled on-chain, signing inside a secure enclave

I find this fascinating because it feels like a missing piece for fully autonomous agent workflows.

I’d love to hear from the community:

Would love to compare notes and learn from your experiences.
