@payrouteshq just released the full spec for building marketplace apps in stellartools 🎉 merchants and devs can now connect their stack without leaving the app. ships with resend and loops today, more coming weekly, and yes we actually respond to prs and issues ❤️ you don't have to rip out stripe or paystack, stellartools runs on @BuildOnStellar and slots in as an extra payment option next to what you already have → stellartools.dev/

stripe built a protocol for AI agents to stream payments. coinbase built one too. we picked Stripe's. here's why. @x402 by coinbase lets agents pay for services directly from a crypto wallet but every single request requires a checksum and other algorithms to process the payment. that's a lot of overhead for usage-based billing where payments are happening constantly. @mpp by stripe lets agents set up a session once and stream payments continuously, no on-chain transaction for every API call and for usage billing that's exactly what you want. both solve autonomous AI payments but MPP is minimalist and X402 is full-stack. For what we're building, minimalist wins. @stellarorgtools is migrating our usage billing infrastructure to MPP as we prepare for mainnet. We're open source payment infrastructure that lets online merchants accept payments with instant settlement and near-zero fees. → stellartools.dev more updates coming 🏴‍☠️
