Kite is one of those projects I started appreciating only after I stopped expecting it to entertain me. It’s not designed to grab attention, and it doesn’t seem interested in doing so. Instead, it feels like it’s built to quietly solve coordination problems that most people only notice when something breaks.
What stands out to me is that Kite isn’t trying to be a destination. It feels more like connective tissue. Something that exists so other systems can interact more smoothly without having to reinvent assumptions every time. That kind of role doesn’t generate hype, but it does generate dependency over time.
The token mirrors that philosophy. It doesn’t feel like it’s there to spark excitement on its own. Its relevance grows only if Kite itself becomes something other protocols rely on. That’s a slower, riskier path, but it’s also a more honest one.
Kite doesn’t create urgency for me. It creates patience. And in a space that moves too fast for its own good, a project like Kite feels like it’s playing a much longer game
