AltLayer x402 Suite: Onchain Pay-Per-Request Execution Goes Live
**AltLayer launches x402 Suite**, embedding payment and settlement directly into execution at the request level. **How it works:** - Each request is paid, settled, and verified as it runs - Economic guarantees built into the execution path itself - Removes trust assumptions by enforcing payment onchain This isn't subscription-based pricing - it's **execution-level economics**. The system processes signed requests that are verified and settled onchain in real-time. The x402 Suite includes: - x402 Facilitator - x402 Gateway - Chain-agnostic interactions - Seamless integration tools Built on Coinbase's per-request payment standard, the suite aims to provide infrastructure for autonomous agents and services that need native pay-per-request capabilities without intermediaries or friction.
ERC-8004 Agent Registry Doubles in Size, Adds Mobile App and Developer Tools
The ERC-8004 agent registry ecosystem experienced significant growth in February, with registered agents more than doubling to over 75,000 across 21 integrated chains. The expansion includes 55,000+ feedback submissions and 61,000+ active users. **Key Platform Updates:** - Mobile app launched for on-the-go agent ecosystem access - Notification system for tracking ecosystem activity - Builder Hub released, opening the registry to developers - Cross-chain agent leaderboard for monitoring top performers - MCP & A2A endpoint testing tools for validating agent interactions - Unified analytics dashboard for network-wide monitoring The [8004scan.io](http://8004scan.io) platform transforms onchain agent deployments into structured data, enabling multichain discovery and comparison. The Builder Hub makes the registry programmatically accessible, allowing developers to build applications on top of the agent identity and reputation infrastructure. Integrated chains include Ethereum, Base, Polygon, BNB Chain, Monad, Taiko, Gnosis, Linea, Celo, Arbitrum, Scroll, Avalanche, Optimism, Abstract, and XLayer.

SolidityGuard Launches Free Security Tool for Smart Contract Vulnerability Detection
**SolidityGuard**, a new open-source security platform, has launched to help developers identify smart contract vulnerabilities before deployment. **Key Features:** - Catalogs 104 real-world vulnerability patterns - Integrates 8 security engines including static analysis, fuzzing, symbolic execution, fork testing, and formal verification - Completely free and open-source The tool addresses a critical need in web3 development, as most smart contract exploits are predictable rather than unexpected events. By providing systematic detection capabilities, SolidityGuard aims to catch vulnerabilities before they become security incidents. Developers can access the platform at [solidityguard.org](https://solidityguard.org/) and view the source code on [GitHub](https://github.com/alt-research/SolidityGuard/releases). The initiative removes traditional barriers to security best practices by making professional-grade contract analysis accessible to all builders.
