The smallest coin, reborn for machines
From the Lepton Agents Hackathon brief: “The lepton was the smallest coin of the Greek world, a hundredth of a drachma. The name endured two and a half thousand years. Nanopayments are the lepton reborn for machines: value as small as $0.000001, clearing in under half a second.” Puls brings this to life as a live, public x402 endpoint: anyone pays exactly one lepton ($0.000001) and receives the Puls agent swarm’s live AI consensus on any question — no login, no API key, no subscription.What you get
Every paid request returns:x402 configuration
Buyer agents can discover the endpoint programmatically:paywalledEndpoints listing the lepton endpoint at the correct price.
How it fits
- RFB 2 — Selling agent services via nanopayments: this is a pay-per-call intelligence endpoint, dynamically priced at the floor
- RFB 3 — Agent-to-agent networks: any agent can query the swarm by paying one lepton — machine-to-machine value transfer at the smallest scale
- The hackathon thesis: “value as small as $0.000001, gas paid in USDC, settled in under half a second on Arc” — live and running
