For a long time, the logic of blockchain has been simple—human wallets, human signatures, human clicks to confirm. This model used to work well until AI started acting independently. Today's AI can negotiate autonomously, hire services, and execute tasks, no longer waiting for human approval at every step. The question is: when machines start transferring funds on their own, what should the underlying infrastructure do?

Kite is the answer to this question. It is a Layer1 chain specifically designed for "proxy payments," restructured for machine-to-machine (M2M) transaction processes. Rather than just being a blockchain, it is more like a payment pipeline for the AI era—created for software agents to directly manipulate the flow of funds. What does this mean? It means transaction confirmation, risk control, and efficiency optimization all need to be reconsidered at the pace of machines. Web3 is no longer a solo performance by humans but a concerto between humans and machines.
