Top merchants

Ranked by tracked x402 volume — authenticity score is 100 when no anomalies are observed

A merchant is any wallet receiving x402 micropayments, ranked here by all-time settled volume from x402scan's paid API. $/buyer is total volume divided by unique buyer wallets — the peer median is ~$369/buyer. Scores start at 100 and drop only when a published formula flags an anomaly; a low score is a measurement, not an accusation.

99% of the 100 most recent registrations show automated-mint fingerprints (35% identical-name clusters, 64% procedural names) within a 0.8h window. Largest cluster: 35× "Ave.ai Trading Agent" from 35 distinct wallets (min gap 2s). One-mint-per-wallet across a name cluster is a pattern consistent with Sybil/airdrop-farming.

Cross-tracker check

Comparing independent trackers of x402 activity

We cross-check every top merchant's transaction share against the facilitators tracked by agenteconomy.to — a merchant carrying a big share of volume while absent from every tracked facilitator would mean one tracker sees volume the others can't.

Checked 10 top merchants against 6 tracked facilitators — no divergence above threshold in this snapshot.
