About x402 Pioneers

Celebrating the Future of Micropayments

x402 Pioneers is a limited collection of 402 NFTs commemorating early adoption of Coinbase's revolutionary x402 micropayments protocol on Base.

The x402 Protocol

The x402 protocol brings HTTP 402 Payment Required to life, enabling instant micropayments in USDC for web content and services.

Built by Coinbase on the Base blockchain, x402 makes it possible to charge fractions of a cent for API calls, content access, or computational resources—unlocking entirely new business models for the internet.

Why x402 Matters:

Instant, programmable payments without intermediaries
Enables pay-per-use models for AI, APIs, and digital services
No credit cards, subscriptions, or payment processing delays
Built on Base for low-cost, fast transactions
