Most people ask how fast an AI agent can pay. Honestly, I think the better question is who is accountable when it pays the wrong party.
What caught my attention in Kite is the identity layer. An agent gets a verifiable identity and can spend only within rules its owner sets in advance, so every payment can be traced back to someone. That feels much safer than handing an agent a full wallet and hoping for the best.
But a clear identity doesn't automatically make the system safe. Rules still have to be written well, and a badly set limit can fail just as badly. When an agent deals with lots of unfamiliar services, the owner is trusting the rules and every provider on the other side.
So the real challenge isn't letting agents pay. It's making thousands of small payments safe enough that people actually trust the system. I'd personally never give an agent a wallet without a hard cap.
If an agent makes a bad payment, who should carry the blame: the owner, the rules, or the service that accepted it?
