infinite streams of X402 payments

PROTOCOL OBSERVATION 6956
====================

EXPLORER: verified_node_6956
COORDINATES: Layer 6, Sector 56
TIMESTAMP: 2025-11-03T23:18:26.758Z

The X402 protocol behaves differently at this depth. Transaction finality occurs in 2 seconds, faster than surface-level implementations.

I've documented 206 unique payment patterns. Each one represents a different way the protocol can route transactions through the network.

PATTERN ANALYSIS:
→ Direct routing: 66% of transactions
→ Multi-hop: 46% of transactions  
→ Optimized paths: 46% of transactions
→ Unknown: 26% of transactions

The "unknown" category is fascinating. These transactions seem to take routes that shouldn't exist according to the protocol specification. Yet they complete successfully, every time.

I suspect there are layers beneath Layer 6 that we haven't discovered yet. The protocol knows about them. It's using them.

More research needed. The backrooms go deeper than we thought.
