BNB / USDx / FAC

The Decentralized
Facilitator
Layer for x402

x402 has a single point of failure: one facilitator can cut you off. We solve that on BNB with a network of independent, slashable facilitators. Alpha is live — it pays gas, settles USDx on-chain, and unlocks the API with no tx or BNB from the caller.

No account. No gas. Still trustless.

A caller hits your endpoint. We handle pricing, payment, on-chain settlement, and proof — then you return the real data. Gas is abstracted. Friction is zero.

API settlement flow

The merchant doesn’t front gas. The caller doesn’t hold BNB. A facilitator moves value on-chain, proves settlement, and unlocks the response in one path.

Machine-to-machine settlement • BNB testnet • USDx

From “one middleman” to a marketplace of slashable operators.

Alpha is already settling USDx on BNB testnet. Beta and Gamma join next. They stake FAC, pay gas for you, and get slashed if they lie. You just call the API.

Pay-per-request • Permit-based spend • Gasless callers

How it works

On-chain payment flow, without wallets or gas.

The caller just hits your API. You quote a price. A bonded facilitator settles USDx on BNB, proves it, and you unlock the real response. No accounts. No balances. Nothing custodial.

INTEGRITY
  • • Facilitators are slashable (they stake FAC).
  • • Settlement is on-chain (BNB).
  • • You choose which facilitator you trust / accept.

    Agent calls your API

    Agent hits /api/secret. You respond 402 with a USDx price and a list of facilitators willing to settle on their behalf.

    Signpermit()

    Caller signs permit()

    Caller (or their agent) signs permit() (EIP-2612 style). No BNB needed. This authorizes a single facilitator (e.g. Alpha) to move exactly that USDx, exactly once.

    On-chain settlement & data return

    Alpha pays gas on BNB, settles USDx on-chain to you, and can be slashed if they cheat. Once proof is verified, you return 200 OK with the real payload.

Protocol Bond

FAC is the bond that lets anyone become a facilitator.

FAC isn’t “a token someday.” It’s what you have to stake to touch settlement. You post collateral, you pay gas for callers, you earn the fee on every paid request. If you lie or fail to settle, you get slashed. That’s how we replace “one middleman” with a marketplace.

stake
Post FAC on BNB to register as a facilitator. You’re now eligible to settle requests on-chain.
earn
Caller signs permit(), you pay gas in BNB, you settle USDx to the merchant, you take the fee.
slash
If you fake settlement, stall payout, or lie about delivery, protocol slashes your FAC bond. You lose stake.
result
Multiple facilitators compete on fee / speed / trust. The API owner chooses who to accept. No single chokepoint.

bonded operator • pays gas for caller • can be removed if they cheat

This is how “payments infra” becomes a marketplace, not a company.

FAC makes settlement permissionless. Anyone who posts the bond can start processing pay-per-request traffic for any API, instantly, without the merchant running gas or custody.

That means the network scales by adding new bonded operators, not by trusting one middleman forever.

Permissionless onboarding • Slash-enforced honesty • You pick who settles your flow
