The @ethereumfndn has awarded cp0x a grant to build an open-source tool for comparing DeFi risk assessments. We are starting work and invite the community to contribute ideas, data, corrections and code here or on github: github.com/cp0x-org/defi-dna

Meet xPaywall - an open-source, self-hosted gateway for monetizing APIs via the x402 and MPP (Machine Payments Protocol) protocols. Add machine payments to an existing API without changing your code. Just point it to your API endpoints, configure routes and prices - and your API is ready to accept payment for every request. How it works: - add your upstream API, routes, and price - an AI agent sends a request to xPaywall - xPaywall responds with HTTP 402 Payment Required - the agent pays for the request via x402 or MPP - xPaywall verifies the payment and proxies the request to the upstream API Benefits: - no changes to your API server code - xPaywall is installed separately - request, revenue, and usage analytics - opensource - full control and self-hosted deployment - AI agents can discover your API through Bazaar Extension, the x402 discovery layer xPaywall consists of two parts: - xgateway - a lightweight proxy that can be used standalone and configured through YAML. - xPaywall - a complete self-hosted stack: admin panel, routes, pricing, analytics, and logging. Today, xPaywall supports: - x402 - exact scheme - MPP - charge scheme (Tempo only for now) Next on the roadmap are other x402 and MPP schemes, plus APP (Agent Payment Protocol by OKX). We'd love your feedback, issues, stars, and contributions.

we're absolutely against the ENS Foundation capturing the treasury ($20M in USD + ETH), and absolutely for experiments like @donnoh_eth gwei.domains/ that burns ETH. better to burn the money than hand it to the people who later try to capture it.. so we invite every cp0x reader and community member to mint a free subdomain like .cp0x.gwei at gwei.cp0x.com a shame that .eth is already captured. the problem was never the DAOs. it's who sits above them!
