Coinbase announced Agentic Wallets on Feb. 11, a crypto wallet infrastructure that lets AI agents autonomously spend, earn and trade. The wallets use Coinbase's x402 payments protocol, which the firm says has processed over 50 million transactions, and include session caps and per-transaction controls to limit agent spending. The offering builds on last year's Payments MCP to enable programmatic machine-to-machine payments.
