a16z Releases Overview of the Agent Economy, Projects like Kite Focus on Payment and Wallet Infrastructure

On November 13, a16z released an overview of the Agent economy. Partners Olivia Moore and Justine Moore pointed out that as AI Agents begin to select products, subscribe to services, and complete purchases on behalf of users, there will be new demands on payment, identity verification, and anti-fraud infrastructure. The "Payments and Checkout" section of the map includes crypto-related projects such as Kite, Crossmint, Privy, Turnkey, and Catena Labs, covering stablecoin payments, wallets, and expense management. Kite is currently the only project that has issued a tradable native token.
