AI Payment Public Chain Kite AI Receives Strategic Investment from Coinbase Ventures, Joining Forces to Advance the x402 Intelligent Agent Payment for Mass Adoption

2025.10.27 21:16:20

On October 27th, the AI Payment Public Chain project Kite AI announced that it has obtained strategic investment from Coinbase Ventures. According to the official information, this financing is a continuation of Kite's recent $33 million financing round, which was led by PayPal Ventures and General Catalyst. The new funds will be utilized to support the development of its proprietary AI smart agent payment infrastructure and to collaborate with Coinbase in order to accelerate the widespread adoption of the x402 protocol. It is reported that Kite has natively integrated Coinbase's x402 smart agent payment standard since its establishment. As one of the earliest Layer 1 blockchains to fully implement x402-compatible payment primitives, Kite enables AI smart agents to directly initiate, receive, and settle payments through standardized intent authorization. This has established Kite's position as a native execution and settlement layer for the x402 protocol and the emerging smart agent economy.

On March 27, Daniel Li, founder of Liquid Capital (formerly LD Capital), noted in a post that the crypto market is in a bear market—with the second phase of the downturn incomplete and no meaningful rebound in sight. The market has disappointed investors for nearly four years: the October 11 crash culled the crypto middle class, the collapse of altcoins hit retail investors hard, the “13th rule” targeted crypto venture capitalists, while exchanges, market makers and projects face ongoing losses. The only sources of capital inflow are Wall Street spot ETFs, crypto treasuries and a handful of true believers. No disruptive innovation has emerged in the crypto sector yet.
