TechFlow news, December 23 — Mind Network today officially announced the launch of its encrypted A2A (Agent-to-Agent) payment solution x402z. Developed through a deep collaboration between Mind Network, a leader in FHE technology, and Zama, this solution addresses the fundamental conflict between blockchain transparency and the strategic privacy needs of autonomous AI Agents. Christian Pusateri, CEO of Mind Network, stated: "x402z is the critical payment layer for HTTPZ (Zero-Trust Internet Protocol), providing essential privacy protection for the Agent economy."
Key highlights:
- Technological leadership: x402z integrates Zama’s production-grade Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technology stack with the ERC-7984 encrypted token standard, enabling "Blind Verification" of economic activities. Validators can confirm transaction compliance without accessing specific amounts, balances, or transaction intents. Rand Hindi, CEO of Zama, commented: "For AI to be free, its computation must remain private. FHE grants them the right to think and transact secretly. x402z is the first step toward a privacy-preserving autonomous economy."
- Addressing core pain points: Targeting the issue of current blockchain "over-transparency" leading AI Agents to leak strategies, cost structures, and intellectual property, x402z provides essential privacy safeguards for the Agent economy, preventing Agents from losing competitive advantages due to data exposure.
- A new paradigm for A2A payments: Through the x402 protocol, AI Agents can autonomously generate encrypted payment instructions and complete zero-trust settlements within Mind Network’s FHE validation network.
- Ecosystem support: Mind Network has secured investments from prominent institutions including Yzi Labs, HashKey, and Chainlink, and has concurrently launched the x402z A2A Payment Alliance, aiming to unite leaders in AI and privacy to jointly build privacy-focused financial standards for the Agent economy era.
