The read

Watch the facilitator layer, not the announcements. A rail becomes real when a third-party facilitator settles its first paid call. Until then it is a press release. On demand: TRM Labs put agentic share of screened settled x402 value at 0.6 to 7.5 percent in September. Lanes are multiplying faster than traffic. The edge is positioning where settlement actually happens before the crowd reroutes.

Live version of this data, any time an agent asks: x402_rail_watch, $0.05 per call.
