December 18, 2025 – The energy around @GoKiteAI is electric as the Kite Global Tour launches with massive momentum! The inaugural Dev Party in Chiang Mai on December 16-17 exceeded all expectations, bringing together developers, builders, and AI enthusiasts in one of Thailand's most inspiring tech hubs.

Co-hosted with @OpenBuildxyz, @4seasDeSoc, and @ETHChiangMai, the event was a true celebration of innovation. Attendees dove deep into Kite's EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain—exploring KitePass cryptographic identities that give AI agents secure, verifiable personas; programmable governance for ultimate user control over spending; and seamless stablecoin micropayments built for the speed and scale of autonomous machine economies.

As @GoKiteAI posted, "Chiang Mai Dev Party wrapped up perfectly! Builders gathered, ideas flew, and we connected deeply over the future of AI agents and verifiable payments." The blend of ancient temple serenity and cutting-edge discussions created an unforgettable atmosphere, reminding everyone that Kite is constructing infrastructure designed to stand the test of time.

With Chiang Mai now a proven success, the tour charges forward. The Seoul Community Meetup at Perplexity’s Café Curious is generating huge buzz, featuring Co-founder & CEO @ChiZhangData alongside a special guest from @perplexity_ai. Expect powerful talks on post-TGE milestones, the agent-based internet revolution, and how Kite eliminates centralized bottlenecks for true AI independence.

Backed by world-class investors including PayPal Ventures and General Catalyst (over $33M raised), @GoKiteAI is delivering real progress—testnet already surpassing millions of agent interactions, x402 integrations live, and mainnet scaling rapidly toward massive throughput.

The $KITE token powers the entire ecosystem: staking secures the network, governance drives decisions, gas fees enable efficiency, and rewards tie directly to AI value creation.

The full Kite Global Tour route—Dubai → Chiang Mai → Seoul → Tokyo → Hong Kong → Singapore → San Francisco → Denver—is uniting the global builder community like never before. More events and details are dropping soon—stay tuned!

The agentic economy is accelerating, and @GoKiteAI is leading the charge. If you were in Chiang Mai, share your favorite moment below. Seoul builders, see you soon!

Higher with every stop! 🪁
