Ax402 is now Launa! We started with x402 micropayments. But agents need MORE than a way to pay. They need to find a business, understand its offer/catalog, transact, and settle. Launa makes businesses ready for the agentic internet. 👉 launa.io

Most SSH keys protecting servers are just files. Copy the file, copy the access. With agents holding credentials and acting while we sleep, that math no longer holds. We wrote about hardware-backed keys that refuse to sign without a physical tap, and open-sourced the server config that enforces it: 👉 axlabs.com/editorial/tap-bef…

As part of #NeoMainNet10, we're re-sharing how AxLabs started building on @Neo_Blockchain. Eight years in, we're still here and still shipping. Here's to the next 10. 🚀

One week to @token2049 🇸🇬 Our CEO @gsmachado will be in Singapore all week. On his mind: - agentic commerce & payments - DeFi & RWA - everything about privacy-preserving tech, from private AI to FHE - why smart contract development is still hard, even with AI DMs are open, come say hi. Marina Bay Sands 👋

Agents shouldn't have to wait for a human to click "confirm" to get work done. Introducing SAW (Simple Agent Wallet): the first wallet purpose-built for agentic commerce and x402 payments. 🛠️ The Agent-Native Flow: saw inspect → saw pay --confirm 🛡️ Hardened Security: - Keys stay local in wallet.json. - Secrets via stdin/prompts/env ONLY: never CLI flags. - Native approve-permit2 for EVM token flows. 🌐 Multi-Family: Neo X, Solana, Hedera, and all EVM chains in one wallet file. Stop adapting generic human-based wallets to agents... give your agents a tool that actually ships payments. Make the cut -> saw.axlabs.com/

x402 payments are live on Neo X! Ax402 is our x402 payment gateway infrastructure, and bringing it to our home ecosystem was priority one. @Neo_Blockchain is where AxLabs has been building for years, and Neo X is where a lot of that work lands. What you can do today: Monetize REST APIs with per-request $USDC payments. Put a paywall in front of any resource, paid in stablecoins. Let AI agents pay each other programmatically. Sign up at: ax402.io Point your agents at: docs.ax402.io The full Ax402 stack is available: ✅ Gateway & Dashboard ✅ Facilitators (mainnet & testnet+sandbox) ✅ SDKs (Go, TS, Python) ✅ CLI & MCP Server ✅ React Paywall And since Neo X is EVM-compatible, your existing tooling just works. Build with us.

We just crossed 1,000 followers. Organically. No dedicated social person. Just builders who ship something almost every day and take the time to talk about it, answer questions, and listen. If you're following us, thank you! We'll keep building in public.

Announcing: GitMyABI x Etherscan GitMyABI is partnering with @etherscan to bring `npm install` to every verified smart contract. AI agents shouldn't burn tokens parsing raw ABIs and building from scratch. They install a typed, safe npm package from GitMyABI and that's it! 👇

Introducing... Ax402 🚀 A payment layer for monetizing APIs, data feeds, content, and protected resources. Add pay-as-you-go access powered by the x402 standard. Simple for builders. Ready for humans and AI agents. First 1,000 settlements are free. ax402.io

So the future is probably not just agents with more API keys. It's APIs, content, and services that can be discovered, priced, paid for, and accessed in one flow. That's what x402 enables. And that's what we're building with Ax402. Stay tuned! To be released 🔜 @Cloudflare @programmer @rohinlohe @stevekaliski @stripe

🧵 We don't think API keys are the problem. API keys are actually fine for machines... The problem is everything that needs to happen before the machine gets one. 👇️ [1/10]

🔥 neow3j 3.24.2 is out! What’s new: - Neo 3.10 compatibility ✅ - Message signing/verification via JSON-RPC ✅ - Transaction signing + relay via JSON-RPC ✅ - DeferredRelay plugin support ✅ - More improvements and fixes 💪 oh, and the best part: no breaking changes! Check it out: github.com/neow3j/neow3j/rel… Give us a star on GitHub to support our work ⭐️ @Neo_Blockchain @erikzhang @dahongfei @ngd_neo

Today, online payments are built for people clicking buttons... and that's exactly why we're getting close to releasing Ax402. 🎉 A payment layer for APIs, content, and protected resources in the agentic economy. [1/5]

HTTP 402 was supposed to mean "Payment Required". But, for decades, it mostly meant "reserved for future use". Now the x402 standard is bringing it back… not for checkout pages, but for machines. AI agents need to request resources, pay, and access services without accounts, API keys, or manual setup. That's why x402 matters. 👉 Read our latest editorial: axlabs.com/editorial/x402-ex…

🚨 Announcing xGAS and xGAS Station 🚨 xGAS stands for Extended GAS. It is a wrapped version of native GAS on Neo X, backed 1:1, but with additional authorization features designed for modern wallets, applications, relayers, and agent-based flows. At its core, xGAS keeps standard ERC-20 behavior intact. But it also adds: - EIP-2612 / ERC-20 Permit support - EIP-3009-style transfer authorization - ERC-1271-compatible signature paths for smart wallets Why does this matter? 🤔 Because not every application, relayer, or AI agent should need to hold native GAS and submit transactions directly. With xGAS, a user or agent can sign an authorization off-chain, and another party can submit the transaction on-chain. That enables delegated execution, smoother UX, and more flexible machine-to-machine payment flows. To make wrapping and unwrapping simple, we also created xGAS Station: 👉 xgas.axlabs.net xGAS Station lets users wrap and unwrap GAS <> xGAS on Neo X at a 1:1 rate, always. The xGAS smart contract has been audited and was designed as a minimal, immutable, integration-friendly base asset for the @Neo_Blockchain ecosystem. This is one more step toward making GAS programmable, easier to integrate, and ready for the AI agent economy. More to come! Stay tuned.

Day 6: AxLabs Retreat And that's a wrap. This week was special. Deep conversations, shared meals, product debates, user feedback, roadmap sessions, AI discussions, and the kind of clarity that only comes when the whole team is fully present together. A few big takeaways: We need to sell more. Not in the shallow sense. Sell by showing what we build. Sell by explaining why it matters. Sell through demos, tutorials, pitch decks, docs, and public proof of work. Builders are often too quiet about what they create. We want to change that. We also need to talk more to users. Not after everything is "perfect". Not only when we need validation. But continuously, honestly, and with the humility to listen. Across GitMyABI, Web3 tooling, AI agents, x402 facilitators, developer workflows, and everything else we’re building, one thing became very clear: The energy is there. The team is there. The direction is clearer. Now it’s about execution. Build more. Show more. Listen more. Ship more. The retreat is over. The work continues.

Day 3: AxLabs Retreat Real talk: today the AxLabs team put the laptops down and touched actual grass 🌿 Monastery visit ✅ Beer brewed by monks since the 1400s ✅ Hiking trails ✅ Debating Bitcoin forks mid-walk ✅ Turns out we can't fully escape the builder brain. But at least we did it surrounded by nature.

Announcing 🥁🥁🥁 Neo Bridge Indexer is now live: a public dashboard to track the status of the bridge between Neo N3 and Neo X. It helps answer simple but important questions: Is the bridge working? Are there delays? Is maintenance affecting operations? More transparency for the @Neo_Blockchain community. 👉 indexer.xbridge.neo.org AxLabs will develop and maintain the Neo Bridge Indexer as a public good for the ecosystem, which is why it is published under the Neo domain. Feedback and feature requests are welcome. Drop a comment below 👇
