Binance has introduced x402, a new payment facilitator on BNB Chain that uses standard HTTP 402 flows for off-chain authorization and on-chain settlement. This innovation enables autonomous AI agents to handle usage-based billing and pay-per-call transactions without traditional checkout processes. Integrated with Trust Wallet AgentKit, it keeps private keys on users' devices, enhancing security while allowing seamless agent payments. This development meets the growing demand for automated payment infrastructure amid rising global AI spending, projected to reach $2.52 trillion in 2026.
