Injective joins x402 Foundation for AI payment standards
Cryptobriefing.com reports that Injective has joined the x402 Foundation as a core member to enhance payment standards for AI-native commerce. The x402 protocol, originally a Coinbase project based on the HTTP 402 status code, is now live on Injective’s network. It enables USDC payments that settle in a single block with sub-second finality. The foundation includes major backers like AWS, Google, Visa, and Mastercard. This integration allows machines to pay for services on a per-request basis without traditional accounts or API keys. Injective’s low median fees of $0.0001 make these micropayments economically viable. The network’s deterministic confirmation at 650 milliseconds eliminates latency for machine-to-machine commerce.
