x402 Protocol - Introduction

Welcome to BlockEden.xyz's x402 facilitator service. We provide enterprise-grade x402 payment infrastructure with a Sui-first, multi-network approach for autonomous AI commerce.

What is x402?​

The x402 protocol is an open-source payment standard developed by Coinbase that enables instant stablecoin micropayments directly over HTTP by activating the dormant 402 "Payment Required" status code. It reimagines internet payments for autonomous AI agents, enabling frictionless micropayments as low as $0.001 with sub-second settlement times and near-zero costs.

Key Features​

  • HTTP-Native: Works seamlessly with existing web infrastructure - no blockchain knowledge required
  • Instant Settlement: Sub-200ms settlement times on Layer 2 networks like Sui and Base
  • Trust-Minimizing: Facilitators cannot move funds beyond explicit client authorizations
  • Chain-Agnostic: Supports multiple blockchain networks through a unified API
  • Zero Protocol Fees: No fees at the protocol layer, only minimal blockchain transaction costs
  • Gasless Transactions: Users never pay gas fees directly - facilitators handle all blockchain complexity

BlockEden.xyz x402 Facilitator​

BlockEden.xyz acts as your x402 facilitator, handling payment verification, on-chain settlement, and compliance—all behind a simple HTTP API.

How x402 Works​

The x402 protocol follows a simple flow:

  1. Client Requests Protected Resource: Your app or AI agent makes an HTTP request to a x402-protected endpoint
  2. 402 Payment Required Response: Server returns payment requirements (amount, token, network, recipient)
  3. Client Signs Authorization: Client generates cryptographic signature authorizing the payment
  4. Facilitator Verifies & Settles: BlockEden.xyz verifies the signature and executes on-chain settlement
  5. Resource Delivered: Your server delivers the protected resource with transaction confirmation
