HTTP 402 has always been reserved for "Payment Required", but until now, it was rarely used in practice.
With x402 on Stellar, that status code becomes a native payment layer for the web. Applications can request small USDC payments before serving content, APIs, or AI services, with settlement happening on Stellar in just seconds.
A simple standard that could unlock a new era of programmable internet payments.
Indonesia is ready. 🇮🇩
