AI agents are moving from laboratories to real-world applications, but they are stuck on a practical problem—the machines need a payment channel that is fast enough and stable enough to handle automated transactions without waiting for human approval each time. The Kite project targets this pain point by creating a Layer-1 public chain that allows software agents to autonomously complete transactions, settlements, and even execute actions automatically according to predefined rules, all without human intervention. In simple terms, it is a payment layer designed specifically for machines.
What makes Kite special is that, although it is compatible with the EVM environment, its architecture is optimized specifically for agent workflows. This means developers can quickly deploy within familiar ecosystems while gaining performance advantages for automated trading. This approach indeed opens up a new direction—when AI is no longer just an auxiliary tool but an independent economic participant, the design logic of infrastructure must also evolve.

Machines trading autonomously without approval? Sounds great, but when it actually launches, who will take the blame?
---
EVM compatible + proxy optimization, this combination is indeed interesting, just don’t know how stable it is.
---
AI as economic participants feels like it’s still early, let’s stabilize the infrastructure first.
---
Designing a payment layer for machines... I can respect that logic, it’s definitely faster than waiting for human approval every time.
---
If Kite can truly solve the pain points of automated trading, it’s definitely worth following, but its reliability depends on how it performs in practice.
---
I’m optimistic about this direction, just afraid it’s another conceptual hype, and we’ll end up with a mess again.
---
Automated execution, no need for human intervention... it’s a bit creepy to think about, who will supervise?

Machine autonomous trading... sounds very futuristic, but I still want to ask, who will take the blame?
---
EVM-compatible and optimized automation, this architectural idea makes sense, but I wonder if it will turn out to be another story once it’s actually implemented.
---
Designing a payment layer for machines, this idea is good, but I’m worried it might become another excuse to cut leeks.
---
Agent economy participants? Sounds fresh, but it also seems quite risky...
---
Is Kite really trying to solve problems this time or just hype the concept? Let’s wait and see once it goes live.

Does autonomous machine trading not require human approval? This sounds a bit dangerous—what if the AI agent messes up?
Kite has indeed addressed a pain point, but whether EVM compatibility can truly solve the performance bottleneck remains uncertain.
This is probably building infrastructure for Terminator, haha.
I don't understand why Layer-1 is necessary; can't existing solutions be modified?
This idea seems too advanced; is the market really ready to let machines spend money on their own?

ngl, machine-to-machine settlement without human gatekeeping... this is either genius or the most dangerous infrastructure play since mt. gox. reading between the lines here 🤔

The machine transferred the funds on its own, so next step is probably to pay AI's salary haha

Machine autonomous trading? Sounds good, but who will be responsible for the messed-up trades?
---
EVM-compatible and optimized proxy, sounds good, just not sure how it performs in practice.
---
Another new public chain, is this one really different? A little bit excited.
---
"A payment layer designed for machines," haha, feels like paving the way for layoffs in the future.
---
Automated execution rules... how much trust is needed to go live, I'm a bit hesitant.
---
EVM compatibility gets a good review, saves having to learn a new system again.
---
AI as an economic participant, this is getting more and more magical.

Does autonomous machine trading not require human approval? Sounds a bit risky haha, but it is indeed a pain point.
Imagine AI placing orders only after approval—that would be very inefficient... The idea behind Kite is still somewhat interesting.
EVM compatibility + proxy optimization—feels like trying to serve two masters at once? Let’s see if it can really be done well first.
The fact that AI has become an independent economic entity... Hold on, if something goes wrong, who’s responsible?
The payment layer needs to be stable; otherwise, if it crashes, everything crashes.
