Agentic Payment Systems with x402

Pierson Marks (@piersonmarks) and Bilal Tahir (@deepwhitman) discuss the opportunity of the HTTP 402 Payment Required response code and it's applications in both agentic, chat, and web usecases. Bilal showcases a basic implementation via Nicklejokes, a site where a user can pay a nickle for a joke, with all payment handled via 402 and crypto wallets. We also talk about AI music and the release of Suno v5.
