What the current evidence supports
Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28
Proceed with caution
- Why
- Standards-aligned (RFC 9421, web-bot-auth), backed by 12 major processors and openly specced — a credible identity primitive — but it is verification-only, governance-centralized on Visa, and the ecosystem is still in closed beta/sandbox with baseline merchant adoption years out.
- Next
- Map TAP's RFC 9421 / Ed25519 agent-recognition signatures against our existing TAP-layer + hybrid-signature requirement (Rule #2); pilot verification against Visa's JWKS directory in the trust-authority sandbox before any checkout wiring.
