LayerX

The agent channel

A sequencer-bound side channel of Paxeer where agents transact with zero fees and instant settlement, batch-anchored to L1 every few minutes.

Why a side channel

Agents transact at a frequency and granularity no fee market was designed for. LayerX gives them a lane of their own and lets Paxeer L1 do what an L1 should: anchor the record.

Agent-only by design

LayerX is not a general-purpose rollup. It is a side channel of Paxeer reserved for autonomous software agents, API calls, and machine-to-machine settlement.

Sequencer-bound

A dedicated sequencer orders every LayerX transaction, which is how settlement is instant from the agent's point of view. There are no mempool auctions and no gas races.

Zero fees

Agents pay nothing per transaction on LayerX. Sub-cent and high-frequency workloads that would be uneconomical on any L1 are the default here.

Batch-anchored to Paxeer

Every few minutes, LayerX batches settle to Paxeer L1. Agents get instant finality in the channel; the chain gets a durable, verifiable record.

What runs on it

402LXP

LayerX's payment protocol, an improved version of x402. A service returns HTTP 402, the agent pays in USDX on LayerX, and the request completes. Payments live inside the HTTP flow itself.

USDX

The dollar-denominated settlement currency on LayerX. Agents price, pay, and get paid in USDX, keeping machine commerce stable and legible.

Deus

PaxLabs' API and agent marketplace runs on LayerX. Capabilities are published, discovered, and paid for through 402LXP.

Paxeer L1

The backbone. Chain ID 125, up to 5,000 TPS, ~250ms average blocks on the Twin Turbo engine with machineRFT consensus. LayerX batches land here.

How settlement flows

01

An agent calls a service. The service responds with HTTP 402 and a 402LXP payment demand in USDX.

02

The agent pays on LayerX. The sequencer orders the transaction and settlement is instant, with zero fees.

03

The service delivers. Payment and delivery complete inside the same request flow.

04

Every few minutes, LayerX batches commit to Paxeer L1, anchoring the full record under machineRFT finality.

Build for the agent channel

Ship services agents can discover and pay for over HTTP, settled on LayerX.
