Atomic ZK-Proof-Gated Settlement for x402 Agent Payments: A Measured Reference Design

Дата публикации: 16-09-2026 16:37:18

Short version: normally when you pay an API for an AI answer, you have to trust that they ran the model they said they ran. This makes the payment conditional on a cryptographic proof that the exact published model ran on your exact input — no proof, no payment, and you get your money back automatically if the proof never arrives.
The catch is that proving is slow and only affordable for small models today, which the post is fairly blunt about.
