For autonomous agents to transact at scale, they need programmable, scoped payment rails. Not consumer cards bent to fit machines. Kite is joining @StraitsX and @avax in a multi-month collaboration to build the payments infrastructure autonomous agents will actually run on. ▷ Product angle: Kite × StraitsX will integrate through Virtual / Scoped Cards, purpose-built rails where scope, limit, and identity are enforced by design. ▷ The arc: whitepapers, hackathons and 2 major events in Asia including a flagship gathering of the global fintech industry. ▷ First stop: Singapore Hackathon, Aug 14-16. Builders welcome. Autonomous agents don’t need a better checkout. They need a payments layer of their own. Proud to build it here with @StraitsX and @avax, on compliant rails. 🪁
