Cardano Joins AI Payments Race with x402 Integration

Cardano has joined the AI payments race by integrating its x402 payment framework with DigiTap's $0.0589 presale token, TAP. This integration brings ADA into a standardized route for AI agents and Web3 applications to make payments on Cardano. The move adds another utility path for the established network, expanding its role in AI-powered transactions.

DigiTap's beta financial app is already live, offering wallet, card, and payment functionality, targeting everyday retail spending. The project has been independently audited by Coinsult and SolidProof, adding third-party verification to its live payments product and current presale. As more networks and fintechs move into the payments space, DigiTap's advantage lies in its timing: its card and wallet product is already active while the token remains at presale pricing.
