@sytaylor @vigstar1 “XYZ is hard” seems to have been forgotten in the age of vibe coded apps. Software is hard. Payments too. As are security, compliance, winning and serving enterprise.

… hard because it’s supposed to be.

[Pat Kinsel @patk]

@regulatorynerd Turns out software is hard

@vigstar1 My dude. Let’s do this. Literally today.

@inababi @psantloki 100% anyone have a contact over there?

[Pat Kinsel @patk]

@tjparker Very different legal framework. UX aside, face opens more doors.

@Flighty the app occasionally, randomly deletes flights that are still in good standing & that I very much still plan to take. Why? Super annoying. Regardless, a log or feed of these types of deletions, cancellations, or changes would be helpful with the ability to restore etc.

@rexsalisbury do you think the people who are contrarian and right are trying to be that? or do you think they just follow their nose / pursue their interests / trust their instincts?

Your agent looks like a giant fraud and liability problem to your bank.

Even if you sent it.

The bank needs to know who it’s acting for and whether you approved what it’s doing.

Today @proof is launching a @Cloudflare Worker for X401. Enabling near instant deployment so Cloudflare customers can protect any endpoint and require verified identity and authorization.

[Proof @proof]

A Worker gets a request from an AI agent. It can’t tell who sent it, or whether that person approved this. x401 now works with Cloudflare Workers: the Worker asks, the person approves in their Proof wallet, the Worker verifies. See it at #Money2020, Booth 5069: https://t.co/AwvMdVv8Vf

Founder and CEO @proof, @patk on how HTTP 401 makes identity verifiable:

"So if you go to a site and it can't load, you get a 400, for example. And so four zero one has always been the status code for identity and authorization."

"So it can say I need identity. I specifically need a verified email address, your name, your date of birth, whatever it is they can specify."

"A verifiable credential chains all the way back to source to source. And every step, proof has been audited for how we verify identity, how we issue credentials, how we store credentials, how we manage authentication and access."

"So that chip on your card is a PKI certificate, and so proof issues PKI certificates for human identity that can sign transactions just like a credit card can with a cryptogram."

Know Your Agent coming online. x401 agent identity proofs alongside x402 agent payments is a strong step towards safer and more trustworthy agentic economic activity.

[Danny Organ @organ_danny]

agentic identity is one of the most important primitives being worked on today!
