Kite is creating a next-generation blockchain platform designed for agentic payments, enabling autonomous AI agents to transact securely with verifiable identities and programmable governance. As AI systems become active participants in economic activity, Kite provides the on-chain infrastructure needed for safe, efficient, and accountable interactions.
The Kite blockchain is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 network optimized for real-time transactions and coordination among AI agents. This allows developers to deploy familiar smart contracts while taking advantage of infrastructure designed specifically for high-speed, machine-driven operations.
A key innovation is Kite’s three-layer identity system, which separates users, agents, and sessions. This architecture enhances security, reduces risk exposure, and gives users granular control over how agents act on their behalf. It also enables accountability and governance without limiting the autonomy of the agents.
KITE, the network’s native token, supports the ecosystem through a phased utility model. The initial phase focuses on participation and adoption incentives, while later stages introduce staking, governance, and fee mechanisms to align long-term network incentives.
As AI-powered economies continue to grow, purpose-built blockchains like Kite will be essential. Kite positions itself at the intersection of AI, identity, and payments, providing a scalable and secure base layer for autonomous on-chain coordination and agent-driven economic activity.
