PANews reported on October 26th that Nubila announced support for the new internet payment protocol x402 and will soon announce its first strategic partner to jointly explore the integration of AI-powered payments and the real-world data economy. The x402 protocol, based on the HTTP status code "402 Payment Required," enables websites, AI, and APIs to implement autonomous payment and settlement without the need for accounts or intermediaries. This means that future AI agents will not only be able to independently access data interfaces but also independently complete payments, achieving true "machine-to-machine" payment. Through x402, Nubila's Weather API will become one of the first real-world data interfaces globally to support AI-powered automated payment access. When AI accesses Nubila's weather data, it can directly pay small amounts of stablecoins (such as USDT), and contributors of real-world data will receive instant on-chain rewards. Nubila stated that this move marks a key step at the intersection of "AI, Decentralized Payments, and Payments," building a foundational layer for the free flow of real-world data, intelligent systems, and value.
