You hear about decentralised finance, decentralised AI, but never much about decentralised media. Luckily, we have orgs like @CtrlX_world and @coinage_media leading the charge. I believe DeMedia is definitely the narrative to watch in 2026.
Centralized media still has control of journalists' livelihood, historical records, and ownership. This clip is a reminder that we're still early with decentralized media. Reinforcing how necessary it is in 2026.

For the @solana #x402 Hackathon, we built a micropayment solution for single article purchases, enabling agent transactions with fees under $0.001! For the first time in the history of the internet, we’ve made per-article monetization economically viable for creators.

Built with @coinbase’s CDP wallet integration for seamless @Solana transactions, you don’t need a Solana wallet to buy articles in USDC or @phantom CASH.

In just two weeks, we shipped x402 Articles, a micropayment infrastructure for digital content built on the x402 protocol (HTTP 402 Payment Required standard) on Solana. It consists of a Content Service API, an x402 payment layer, and an ATXP MCP server.

Traditional payment processors charge 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. On a $0.01 article, that’s a 3,100% fee, and why micropayments for articles have so far been impossible. But readers have subscription fatigue and the advertising model is dead. So how can journalists monetize?

Solana is for founders. Solana is for creatives. Solana is for developers. Solana is for marketers. Solana is for designers. Solana is for traders. @Solana is for you. 🫵

Two years from now, AI agents may outnumber humans on the internet. But current blockchain systems weren't designed for machine-speed commerce. The foundations established now will either support or constrain the agent economy for years to come. de.superteam.fun/blog/the-20… by @arikia

x402 protocols are going to change everything. This is the moment @CtrlX_world has been waiting for.

Looking up documentation about how to integrate #x402 with @Ghost and Perplexity is pulling from the @CtrlX_world website! Without issuing micropayments to me of course. This all needs to change now!
