The agent integrates with Coinbase Advanced for spot and derivatives trading, with equities and prediction markets support planned. It uses x402, an open payment protocol co-developed with AWS, Anthropic, Circle, and Near, to access premium data APIs without logins or subscriptions — a protocol that has already processed 75 million transactions and $24 million in volume in 30 days. The agent works inside ChatGPT and Claude via Coinbase's MCP server. The launch follows Robinhood's own AI trading agents and comes amid broader industry momentum around agentic finance, though security concerns remain given AI-powered DeFi exploits drained $600 million in April alone. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
