28th December 2025 – Injective has integrated the x402 standard, enabling direct, on-chain payments through standard HTTP protocols. The announcement, made on December 26, positions Injective as one of the first Layer 1 blockchains to support this breakthrough in real-time, web-native financial transactions.
The x402 protocol allows servers to include payment instructions within the HTTP 402 (Payment Required) response. When a user or AI agent requests access to an API or service, the server can respond with payment terms. Once the payment is completed on-chain, the requested content becomes accessible.
This model supports:
It is particularly suited for agentic workflows, where autonomous AI agents perform tasks and settle payments on the fly.
Injective’s December 26 announcement confirmed the launch of x402 support across its high-speed, low-fee blockchain network. The team highlighted several key capabilities:

According to the team, x402 enhances Injective’s long-term goal of building scalable infrastructure for financial innovation.
Injective already supports multiple ecosystems, including Ethereum, Cosmos, and Solana. The addition of x402 complements its earlier innovations, like CW-404 for fractional NFTs.
With x402, developers can:
The community response has been largely positive. Many praised the integration as a potential shift toward a more fluid and autonomous internet economy. Some called it the beginning of a new model for crypto-financial infrastructure.
Starter kits, templates, and facilitator integrations (e.g., with Coinbase) are already available to simplify adoption. Other projects, including Xyber and Infinity IDE, have also adopted the standard for use in AI and multi-chain tooling.
