400K+ events processed across agent activity on multiple chains. Backed by Colosseum. This isn't a whitepaper. It's live infrastructure with usage behind it.

Shoutout to @JordanLyall — CPO @artblocks_io, and the person quietly mapping the entire agent payments ecosystem through @agentpaystack. 162 projects. 6 layers. one of the most useful references in this space right now. glad we made it onto the map!
We're in. 🎉 MPPGate is now listed on the Agent Payments Stack — a directory mapping every project building infrastructure for AI agent payments. 162 projects. 6 layers. we're at L4: Governance & Policy. that's the layer that decides how agents spend. budgets, limits, auto-stop. that's us.

The honest take: institutional pedigree is real, production track record is not yet. 11 days old, code unaudited, txn volumes unconfirmed. Building today: x402 for crypto-native stacks. MPP if you need fiat rails or LLM micropayments.
