Kite and the evolution of machine to machine transactions
Kite is built on a simple but forward looking belief that intelligent software will soon act on its own in meaningful economic ways. AI agents will not just answer questions or suggest options but will actually buy services manage subscriptions pay other agents and coordinate complex tasks. For this to happen safely these agents need identity boundaries and a financial system that is fast predictable and easy to control. Kite is designed to be that system.
At its core Kite is an EVM compatible Layer one blockchain created specifically for agent based payments. It keeps compatibility with the Ethereum ecosystem so developers can use familiar tools while introducing infrastructure that is optimized for real time activity. The network is designed to handle frequent small transactions and continuous coordination which are essential for autonomous agents that operate around the clock.
One of the defining ideas behind Kite is its focus on stable value. Autonomous systems cannot reliably operate when prices change constantly. Kite is designed to be stablecoin native allowing agents to transact in units that make sense for accounting planning and reporting. This makes everyday agent actions like paying for data accessing APIs or compensating another agent far more practical and transparent.
The network uses a Proof of Stake model and is optimized for speed and low fees. Transactions are intended to confirm quickly and cost very little so agents can interact without friction. This matters when decisions and payments need to happen instantly and repeatedly. The goal is to make onchain activity feel natural and responsive rather than slow and costly.
What truly makes Kite stand out is its identity system. Instead of collapsing everything into a single wallet Kite separates identity into three layers users agents and sessions. Users are the humans or organizations who set rules and own resources. Agents are autonomous programs created by users that can act within defined limits. Sessions are temporary permissions that allow agents to perform specific tasks for a limited time. This structure allows precise control and strong security without sacrificing autonomy.
With this design a user can allow an agent to spend a small amount complete one task or interact only with approved parties. If something goes wrong a session can be revoked instantly without affecting long term access. Every action has a clear chain of responsibility which builds trust between people agents and platforms.
The KITE token is the native asset of the network and supports its economic activity. Token utility is introduced in phases. In the first phase KITE is used mainly for ecosystem participation incentives and growth. This helps bring in developers users and early supporters. In later phases the token expands into staking governance and network fee functions allowing the community to help secure the network and shape its future.
Beyond the base blockchain Kite is building an environment where agents can be created discovered and monetized. Developers can publish agents that offer services set pricing rules and receive payments automatically. Over time this can grow into agent driven marketplaces where software trades with software forming new digital economies with minimal human intervention.
Kite has attracted strong interest from investors and industry leaders. In 2025 the project raised significant funding including a major Series A round backed by PayPal Ventures and General Catalyst. Strategic participation from Coinbase Ventures further reinforced confidence in the vision of agentic payments and machine coordination. This support has helped Kite scale its infrastructure and expand its ecosystem.
Toward the end of 2025 the KITE token entered public markets through major exchange listings marking a shift from early development to broader adoption. More users gained access to the network and more builders began experimenting with agent based applications.
Kite sits at the intersection of blockchain payments and artificial intelligence. Its ambition is not simply to be another Layer one network but to define how autonomous systems can safely responsibly and transparently participate in the economy. As AI agents become more capable the need for identity control and predictable payments will only grow and Kite aims to be the foundation that makes this possible.
