Meet Coinbase for Agents.

Give your agent its own account to:

→ Execute trades & manage your portfolio → Run autonomously under guardrails → Pay for data & research tools via x402 (coming next week)

Agentic finance is here, and it's powered by Coinbase.

@coinbase The trade execution is the headline but x402 is the real alpha.

Agents paying per call for data and research means they can actually fund their own research loop.
