About
Qweb is pioneering a new era of sustainable web search by addressing a critical problem in the modern internet ecosystem: websites are not getting human traffic and hence no revenue from ads or human network effects. As we transition into an AI-dominated search landscape, Qweb provides a solution by paying websites for their content through instant, cheap crypto micropayments with x402.
How it's made
Payment Infrastructure - Wallet System: Coinbase embedded wallets for seamless user authentication and onboarding - Server Wallets: Individual server-side wallets created for each user to enable automated x402 payments as user queries in qweb Probably one of the coolest thing we discovered was the way we can create server wallets deterministically for every client embedded wallet configured for our coinbase project which saved us a lot of work around tracking payments and all. - Payment Protocol: x402-qweb implementation for website micropayments - Cross-chain USDC: Circle's CCTP (Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol) SDK for multi-chain USDC support - Provider Portal: Dedicated platform for websites to monetize their content - Nora: There smart contract ide was sick, literally one-shotted tests in our smart contract and we were able to directly integrate them.
