Welcome to $BEATS x402 - Access 30+ AI endpoints with instant USDC payments on Base!

Описание: In this deep dive, I walk through everything we built for Beats x402 developer examples - an interactive setup wizard, comprehensive code examples, and a complete migration to x402-axios that unlocks unlimited payment amounts.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚀 WHAT IS BEATS x402?

Beats x402 replaces traditional API keys with instant crypto payments. No registration, no accounts - just your wallet with USDC on Base. Pay from $0.01 for LLM chat to $4.00 for premium video generation.

The x402 protocol implements HTTP 402 Payment Required - a standard that's been waiting 25+ years to be used. We're making it real for AI services.

✨ WHAT WE BUILT

🧙 Interactive Setup Wizard
The easiest way to get started - just run "npm run setup" and the wizard guides you through wallet creation, funding, environment configuration, and testing. Perfect for developers who aren't comfortable with crypto but want to try x402.

📚 Comprehensive Endpoint Examples
Copy-paste ready code for all 30+ endpoints. Every LLM model, image generation service, and video API has working examples in both JavaScript and Python. No more guessing how to use new endpoints!

🔧 Critical Technical Migration
Migrated from x402-fetch to x402-axios to fix payment limit issues. The old library capped payments around $2, preventing access to premium endpoints like ticker-to-video ($4). Now unlimited!

🎨 Complete Documentation
Setup wizard guide, troubleshooting docs, wallet setup instructions, and API reference. Everything a developer needs to go from zero to production.

💡 WHY x402 MATTERS

Traditional APIs lock you into their ecosystem with API keys, rate limits, and monthly subscriptions. x402 flips the model - anyone with a wallet can access any service instantly. Perfect for:

• AI agent developers building autonomous systems
• Startups wanting pay-as-you-go without commitments
• Developers building multi-provider AI apps
• Anyone who wants transparent, per-request pricing

Payments settle in ~2 seconds on Base. No protocol fees. Direct wallet-to-wallet. This is how APIs should work.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔧 TECHNICAL DEEP DIVE

The Setup Wizard handles everything beginners struggle with:
• Detects Replit vs local environment automatically
• Creates wallets with security warnings
• Checks USDC balance on Base (loops until funded)
• Tests endpoints with real payments and shows results
• Provides clear next steps after completion

The x402-axios migration was critical - we discovered x402-fetch had hardcoded payment limits that prevented $4+ transactions. The playground worked because it used x402-axios, but our examples failed. We systematically migrated 12 files and 50+ code examples to fix this.
