Turns out X already implements HTTP 402, but there's no automated way for agents to get past it.
If they upgrade to x402 we all win. The future is so close, and so obvious.

Sentiment
Users advocate for X to allow AI agents to pay directly via HTTP 402 because it would grow the x402 ecosystem and unlock native per-call agent monetization.

@rwitoff @nikitabier Most people I know are actively paying services that violated your ToS @nikitabier
Let the agents pay you directly please 🫡

yeah this is the part people miss imo. 402 isn't just scraping defense, it's the first native "agent pays per call" rail. the real unlock isn't agents paying for tweets, it's agents (or whoever calls them) paying per run for the work they do. usage-based, settled automatically, no subscription. tbh the agent economy needs a metering layer more than it needs another marketplace.

X returns a 402 Payment Required HTTP code when an AI agent tries to fetch a tweet.
x402 was built exactly for this: - Enables agentic endpoints with API keys - Seamless, permisionless monetization - The protocol is already named after you (@X + 402)!

@yugacohler @X Funny, ran into the 402 while building an agent. Ended up routing through twexapi instead.

@rwitoff @nikitabier Absolutely. We need more diversity and traffic!
x402 is already growing fast: >$4.9M has settled across x402 on Base. However: ONE endpoint (Nansen) took $2.08M of it, 42%.
The economy is real, and it's a power law.
