Coinbase-Backed x402 Ecosystem Launches AI-Powered Marketplace

A new marketplace for AI-powered services has been launched, aiming to simplify how bots and humans access digital tools. Agent.market is a discovery hub for services built on the x402 protocol, which uses the HTTP 402 payment standard to enable seamless micropayments.

The platform supports both blockchain and traditional financial rails, allowing wider adoption across industries. The x402 ecosystem has already hosted tens of thousands of active agents, processing millions of transactions and generating significant economic activity.

The launch of Agent.market marks a shift towards frictionless machine-to-machine payments across the internet, making it easier for developers and businesses to access services without complex onboarding processes.
