Coinbase has launched a new AI‑driven trading and payments tool that lets autonomous software assistants execute cryptocurrency trades, manage portfolios, and make payments on behalf of users.
The product, called Coinbase for Agents, connects artificial intelligence agents like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude directly to users' Coinbase accounts. Once granted permission, these agents can autonomously place trades, access real‑time market data, handle payment requests, and interact with services that require online payments, all within spending and risk limits defined by the user.
