The world's biggest cloud platform, @awscloud, just chose stablecoins to power agentic payments. @Coinbase wallets + x402 are now natively integrated into Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. First major cloud provider to embed autonomous crypto payments into its agent stack. We're live at the AWS Financial Services Symposium presenting on this exciting new partnership. 🤝

Kite Mainnet and Kite Passport are now live and compatible with @Google AP2. Developers building on Kite can now use AP2 to enable AI agents to securely shop, negotiate, and make payments on behalf of users, without requiring human intervention for every transaction. The workflow is seamlessly integrated with Kite Passport, giving developers granular control and delegation capabilities over their agents, all powered by instant stablecoin payment rails on Kite Chain.

Kite Mainnet is now live. This is not just another mainnet. It is the first blockchain built for agentic payments. Designed for an agent-first internet, for builders, and for the future Agent Economy. What makes Kite Mainnet different: Built for builders and agents. Not chasing TVL. Not chasing the next DeFi cycle. Not competing for idle speculative capital. Three layers, one platform: • Settlement Layer: built for high-frequency, low-value, agent-driven stablecoin-native transactions. • Kite Agent Passport: unifies identity, delegated authority, and programmable governance. • Agent Interface & Experience: where agents and developers interact with the system through agent registration, agent harnesses, and service discovery. A unified hub for all major payment protocol standards, including x402, Google AP2, and Stripe MPP.

The Strait of Hormuz is closed, gas prices are soaring and billions of taxpayer dollars have been wasted. How is this reckless war of choice working out for the American people?



We all want @x402 to win. Our first major release from @TektonicCompany, with support from @GoogleCloudTech & @solana, brings us a step closer to institutional adoption & monitoring of x402. We created the first high-throughput real time x402 BigQuery table for Solana and Base

Today, we're announcing Agentic Risk Standard (ARS) research: bringing escrow, underwriting and collateral to the agentic economy. Co-authored by researchers from Google DeepMind, Microsoft Research, Columbia University, Virtuals Protocol, and t54 Labs. t54.ai/ars

The Trust Layer for Autonomous Commerce is here: When AI Agents Get a Wallet. AI is graduating from chat assistants to autonomous economic agents capable of discovering, negotiating, and settling payments. With Google's AP2 standardizing agent-initiated payments across 60+ organizations including Mastercard and Coinbase, and the x402 protocol turning HTTP into a payment rail, the infrastructure for the agent economy is crystallizing right now. Join us for Episode 15 of AI on AIR as we explore the trust layer for autonomous commerce when AI agents get a wallet. Our founders @ChiZhangData and @scottshics will be joined by @nalin (Web3 Product Lead, @googlecloud), the product leader driving Google’s Agent Payments Protocol (AP2). 📍 Live on Kite AI’s X 📅 April 7th 🕐 10:00 - 11:00 AM PST 📌 Episode 15: The Trust Layer for Autonomous Commerce: When AI Agents Get a Wallet 💬We’ll discuss: • How Google AP2 brings together 60+ organizations to create open standards for agent payments • The shift from human KYC to KYA: verifying an AI agent’s identity, authorization scope, and human principal • Designing portable agent reputation systems in the coming zero-click economy • Minimum trust signals and cryptographic proofs needed for machine-to-machine transactions without human oversight • Real-world AP2 x402 scenarios: autonomous pay-per-request for cloud compute, API calls, or machine invoices • How AP2 Mandates and Kite’s Agent Passport can form a complete authorization-plus-identity stack • Liability when an agent hallucinates a wrong purchase, and circuit breakers for AI-driven transaction storms Set your reminder and join us live. The agent economy needs payment standards that actually work at machine scale. 🚀








Google is giving away stablecoins, and it's only possible with Self's proof-of-human technology. Real humans can get real money through a first-of-its-kind distribution engine. Here's how it works. ↓
