LazAI launched GMPayer, in collaboration with Metis, GOAT, and ZKM. GMPayer is a multi-network payment rail across AI Agents utilizing x402 to facilitate cross-chain AI payments with no intermediaries. The $BANG token, GMPayer’s proof-of-concept, minted out fast and is now available for trading on Netswap and GoatSwap. It has no utility yet so DYOR before trading.

You can now bridge BANG between Andromeda and GOAT Network. The x402 Proof-of-Concept BANG token brings cross-chain functionality and unity to the Metis ecosystem. It has no utility yet, always DYOR before trading. Bridge here.
