How many x402 and MPP routes are listed?
Answered from the issue named below, as published on its date. A later issue is a later answer, at its own address.
The answer
The x402 and MPP route catalogues (Bazaar and mpp.dev) list 16,197 routes across 1,768 hosts as of 1 September.
(1) The CATALOGUE population: every route listed on the two public route catalogues, combined and de-duplicated, at one stamped read on 2026-09-01 — the read the issue's route, host and service counts are quoted against, with a second complete read 93 minutes later kept as the cross-check.
The listed universe moved 16,170 → 16,197 routes between two complete reads 93 minutes apart on 1 September. Because the catalogue denominator moves, market-size claims need a timestamp.

|---|---|---|
| One fresh full read of both public route catalogues, combined and de-duplicated: route shares by operator, settlement routing attributed from published payment challenges against a re-fetched public registry, and the count of listed routes that publish no usable request example. | b34ac16e2eba36d319f1423b2b2c348d8b4d2ad022c12e2eae6e9a41e3ce53c5 | |
| The dated, stamped union read every catalogue denominator in this issue is quoted against, and its cross-check against a second complete read taken 93 minutes later — which is where the moving-denominator signal comes from. | 60fe0415ac7e79c53c5e76f3a930acfbc87dc2b241ca4d8ca0ab61243f890fb9 |
