XONA Launches on SKALE on Base: Powering the Autonomous Creative Economy with Zero Gas Fees

SKALE Network

In the rapidly evolving landscape of AI and blockchain, one fundamental challenge has persisted: making AI truly work onchain. For too long, creators, builders, and autonomous agents have struggled with fragmented solutions, prohibitive transaction costs, and infrastructure that simply wasn't built for the high-frequency, machine-to-machine economy of tomorrow. The promise of seamless AI-powered content generation and autonomous creative agents remained just out of reach… until now. XONA, the creative AI agent built on the x402 protocol, is now live on SKALE on Base, bringing premium AI image generation, AI video generation, and real-time creative tooling to the decentralized economy.

What is XONA?

XONA is a Creative AI Agent on x402, built for agents, creators, and builders who want to generate real content onchain. It bridges premium AI image and video generation into a single pay-per-use platform—simple to use, scalable by design, and fully compatible with onchain workflows.

For x402 Agents:

XONA provides an onchain bridge to premium AI image and video generation, enabling autonomous agents to create content through seamless pay-per-use transactions. Agents can access advanced creative capabilities without dealing with subscriptions, complex payment rails, or gas-fee friction.

For Creators (Humans):

XONA is made for creators who want to produce high-quality images and videos easily from one platform. No code, no subscriptions—just turn ideas into content in minutes and pay only for what you use.

For Builders:

XONA delivers real-time token trends, narrative analysis, and creative launch kits that accelerate the journey from idea to execution—combining market intelligence with ready-to-use creative tools.

Why SKALE on Base?

The XONA team's decision to deploy on SKALE on Base was driven by fundamental infrastructure requirements. At the heart of XONA's vision is a high-frequency, autonomous economy where microtransactions—sometimes as low as $0.05—form the backbone of creative commerce. This vision isn't viable on networks where gas fees erode margins and create friction.

SKALE's Zero Gas architecture removes this barrier entirely, enabling a seamless, Web2-fast experience while maintaining trustless, decentralized infrastructure. Combined with Instant Finality, SKALE on Base provides the only rails capable of supporting XONA's high-frequency micropayment vision.

"Our creative AI agent is designed to power the next generation of autonomous content generation using the x402 protocol for seamless, machine-to-machine settlements. We are deploying on SKALE on Base because its Zero Gas and Instant Finality are the only rails capable of making high-frequency, $0.05 content micro-payments economically viable without fee erosion. By integrating with ERC-8004 and the BITE protocol, we ensure our agent's creative logic remains private and secure, while its services remain trustless and discoverable. Our mission is to leverage SKALE as a foundational 'Agent Layer,' allowing our autonomous agent to scale its reach and serve as a primary content provider for other agents within the SKALE ecosystem."

Technical Innovation and Security

XONA's integration extends beyond payment infrastructure. By leveraging ERC-8004 and the BITE protocol, the platform ensures agent creative logic remains private and secure, while services stay trustless and discoverable by other agents on the network. This positions SKALE as a foundational "Agent Layer" where XONA's autonomous agent can scale and serve as a primary content provider for other agents within the ecosystem.

A Proven Track Record

XONA arrives on SKALE on Base with an established reputation in the x402 ecosystem. The project ranks among the top servers on the x402scan leaderboard on Solana, demonstrating real-world adoption. Additionally, XONA has achieved verified and featured seller status on the Dexter Marketplace.

Looking Forward

The launch of XONA on SKALE on Base represents a significant milestone in the agentic economy. By combining XONA's creative AI capabilities with SKALE's zero-gas, instant-finality infrastructure, the platform is positioned to become a foundational service provider. As the Internet of Agents takes shape, platforms like XONA demonstrate what becomes possible when the right infrastructure meets innovative applications.
