What crypto means by it
A short readable name you can be paid to instead of a long wallet address. You share the handle, the sender types it, the money arrives.
What you already know this as
A UPI ID, or a PayPal email. The account number still exists underneath, you simply never have to read it out.
In Kite: Share your handle rather than a 42-character address. Both work, but only one survives being read down a phone.
