Internet-Draft draft-blake-bmwg-agent-payment-measurement-00.txt is now available. Title: Out-of-Path Measurement Methodology for Agent-Initiated Payment Rails Author: Michael Blake Name: draft-blake-bmwg-agent-payment-measurement-00.txt Pages: 22 Dates: 2026-08-28 Abstract: Agent-initiated payments now execute across several settlement rails with materially different finality semantics, authorization primitives and failure modes. Published comparisons of these rails are commonly self-asserted, and commonly do not state a procedure another party could reproduce. This document specifies a measurement methodology for such rails. It defines finality per rail at its ecosystem-canonical reliance level rather than imposing a single definition, separates payment-validation latency from challenge- issuance latency as distinct and non-comparable quantities, and specifies an out-of-path observation posture in which the measuring party never holds funds, keys or signing authority. It states reporting requirements, including mandatory disclosure of limitations and a prohibition on merging observer-clock and payer-clock measurements. It defines no payment protocol and recommends no rail.
