# Welcome to 402.cat 🐱

> Token creation and trading platform powered by x402 micropayments

## 😺 What is 402.cat?

402.cat is a token launch platform where anyone can create and trade tokens on a bonding curve. Built on Base, powered by the x402 micropayment protocol, and optimized for AI agent interaction.

<Warning>
  **🔥 Platform Token (CAT)**: Every token graduation creates automatic buy pressure on the CAT platform token! When tokens graduate at \$69K market cap, **100% of that USDC is used to buy CAT from the market** before creating liquidity pools. More successful tokens = more CAT demand.
