Solana launches x402 batch payment function, Anza announces block time upgrade

Solana has launched x402 batch payment function through PayAI Network and BlockRunAI, supporting AI agents to initiate multiple USDC payments and settle them through one on chain transaction. BlockRunAI saves over $20000 in network fees per month. Solana development agency Anza stated that the upgrade to reduce block time to 200 milliseconds is expected to go live around 23:00 (UTC+8) on October 9th. (Source: Bitcoin.com News)
