Solana's x402 Launches USDC Batch Payments, BlockRunAI Says It Can Save Over $20,000 Per Month

Odaily Report: Blockchain platform Solana has launched x402 batch payment functionality through PayAI Network and BlockRunAI, enabling AI agents to initiate multiple USDC payments and settle them all through a single on-chain transaction.

BlockRunAI has already applied this technology to its AI model routing service. The company states that by consolidating multiple model calls into a single USDC settlement, it can save over $20,000 per month in network fees and reduce latency by approximately 10x; its service provides access to over 113 AI models through a single endpoint.

Solana development organization Anza stated that the upgrade to ultimately reduce Solana's block time to 200 milliseconds is expected to go live around 15:00 UTC on October 9, having previously been gradually reduced from 400 milliseconds to 350, 300, and 250 milliseconds. (Bitcoin.com News)
