Market overview

Base blocks are read in full; Solana is read from known facilitators. Every row maps to a specific transaction — nothing is extrapolated or filled in. Window: 30 days.

The two right-hand columns tell the whole story: nearly every payment is tiny, while nearly all the volume sits in a handful of large transfers.

A one-off wallet is a test or a demo. Only someone who pays regularly can become a customer. Payers with scores →

The “≥10” row is the real addressable base of sellers. Catalogues list tens of thousands of endpoints, but only a handful see actual flow: one operator often holds dozens of listings, so a catalogue count says nothing about how many businesses exist.

x402 is open — anyone can run a settlement service, and most never register anywhere. An explorer that walks catalogues misses these payments entirely. We find them by reading blocks. Full list →

Endpoints without enough observations are left out — they get “not enough data”, not a low grade.

Polygon and Arbitrum are excluded on purpose: a full block census found four payments in two hours on Polygon (mean ticket $33, so not x402) and none at all on Arbitrum.

Verdict before payment, seller and wallet scores, market aggregates.

We hold no fundsNo custody, no escrow, no facilitator role. Not one payment passes through us.
Same input, same answerScoring is deterministic. No model, no learning on the fly.
Objections welcomeWe show owners what drags a score down. How to dispute
We say what we can't seeSome payments move off-chain, and we say so instead of pretending otherwise.
