Q&A
- Is Regime Gate a GeoPulse alternative on x402?
- For agents that need regime physics, attestation, and 2008 proof on HTTP 402 — yes. For buyers who only want the cheapest country sticker on Base — GeoPulse may remain sufficient. Different tier, same mall.
- Do you match GeoPulse at $0.07?
- No on Base — we price the Base USDC probe at $0.25 (mall-average), not GeoPulse's $0.07 country sticker. Clock ($5) and full ($8) stay premium on X Layer; we do not discount the instrument.
- How many x402 endpoints does Entropy Index offer?
- 500 registration-ready search faces on one handler — probe, clock, full — plus hourly catalog pulse indexing on the public rail. See /x402 and /api/v1/x402/status.
- Where is the x402 catalog?
- Human: /x402 and /developers#regime-gate. Machine: /llms.txt, /.well-known/x402.json, /.well-known/regime-gate-mcp.json, /api/v1/x402/status, /api/v1/x402/pulse.
