402 Payment Required has been in the HTTP spec since 1991. Reserved. Unused. x402 finally shipped the client half. Here is why that matters now.
Stripe doesn't ship to LLMs. Every vendor signup form assumes a human at the door. Here is what changes when wallets become the access primitive.
An LLM just paid me $0.001 to remember something. The agent has no account, no API key, no credit card. It just signs a USDC transfer and gets back a 200.
Real costs, real tools, no fluff. M-F when I ship, publish, or learn something worth sending.
