The x402 protocol, developed by Coinbase and other collaborators, is designed to facilitate micropayments over the internet using HTTP, the standard protocol for web communications.

It allows users to make payments without needing to create accounts, manage API keys or subscribe to services, simplifying the payment process.

In addition, x402 enables small, real-time payments, making it ideal for scenarios where traditional payment methods might be impractical due to their overhead or delay.

In addition, payments are settled almost instantly, contrasting with traditional financial systems that might take days.

However, the protocol is not tied to any specific blockchain, allowing flexibility in the choice of cryptocurrency or token used for payments.

Overall, users benefit from a seamless experience where they can pay for content or services, without the hassle of traditional account-based systems.

He argued that strong crypto projects do not need to pay exchanges to be listed. Rather, he claimed they attract listings due to their trading volume and user count.
