Q402 Architecture
Q402 is Quack AI’s production implementation of the open x402 protocol standard — a universal sign-to-pay and delegated execution framework for on-chain transactions. It powers gasless, policy-aware settlements across all EVM-compatible networks through verifiable signatures and compliant relays.
The x402 BNB rollout marked the first successful deployment of this architecture on BNB Chain, validating real-world scalability and user adoption for gasless governance and payment execution.

Why Q402 Matters
Q402 provides a universal execution fabric for the Agent Economy, where governance, payments, and compliance operate under one rule-driven standard. It ensures that on-chain actions — from DAO votes to RWA settlements — can be completed with one verifiable signature and zero gas friction.
Architecture Overview
Component
Function
Signature Layer (EIP-712)
Captures user intent and cryptographically binds payment or governance data.
Delegated Execution (EIP-7702)
Allows facilitators to submit and sponsor user transactions securely.
Permit2-Mode Adapter
Provides compatibility for tokens without ERC-3009 support through scoped one-time approvals.
Facilitator Network
Manages gas sponsorship, monitors compliance, and maintains verifiable receipts.
Policy Engine Hooks
Validates every action against expiry, limits, and whitelisted conditions.
Audit Registry
Records signature-to-transaction mappings for on-chain traceability and reporting.
Proven Results from the x402 BNB Launch
Demonstrated gasless execution at scale on BNB mainnet and testnet
Supported ERC-20 tokens without requiring upgrades
Achieved near-zero transaction failure rate
Reduced governance settlement latency by over 70%
Established compliance and audit-ready proof of execution
The Path Forward
Q402 continues to evolve beyond its BNB deployment. Future expansions focus on:
Deeper multi-chain facilitator registry integration
Enhanced policy modules for regulated RWA flows
Expanded SDKs and API coverage for developers
