Coinbase has introduced a new toolkit designed to revolutionize how AI agents interact with the world of cryptocurrency. This cutting-edge tool allows AI models such as Claude and Gemini to securely access crypto wallets, initiate transactions, and manage digital assets—with no need for an API key and broad compatibility with various AI frameworks.

Called AgentKit, the toolkit bridges the gap between artificial intelligence and blockchain technology. It provides secure wallet management, enabling AI agents to create, control, and use crypto wallets. The agents can perform a wide range of onchain actions beyond simple transfers, including swaps and smart contract deployments. With multi-network support, AgentKit can operate across EVM-compatible blockchains and Solana, making it versatile for developers and innovators.

AgentKit’s flexible framework means it integrates seamlessly with AI tools like LangChain, Eliza, and the Vercel AI SDK. Developers can extend its capabilities with custom actions and easily add support for new wallet providers.

By empowering AI agents to execute complex transactions and manage digital assets directly, Coinbase is paving the way for new applications in automated payments, finance, and blockchain-enabled services. This breakthrough not only streamlines the interaction between AI and crypto but also sets the stage for a new breed of intelligent, autonomous financial agents.
