You can use privacy pass and pay in crypto

I'm not fathoming what Privacy Pass gains you, it's tokens generated from your account, the chain of possession is obvious throughout. The tokens get used up and removed from your account and the logged-in browser extension generates more, but there's no "privacy" involved there.

Fair enough on the crypto.

Kagi literally documents how this works in their blog post about it: https://blog.kagi.com/kagi-privacy-pass

Perhaps you should start reading before writing?

The tokens can't be traced to the account and are batch generated so you can't be deanonymized by correlation. They aren't stored in the account, but locally, in fact Kagi can (and they say they will) just sell the tokens directly, as they aren't linked at all to an account
