Coinbase Wallet is building Coinbase Terminal, a new product for advanced traders, and aims to bring AI agent features to the wallet by the end of this year, according to Ox Bid, a product manager who leads trading at Coinbase Wallet.
Bid said on Unchained Premium, in an interview recorded Oct. 22, that Terminal ranks among the most exciting work underway, describing it not as a single new feature but as “the whole product called Terminal,” built for “more pro traders.”
The product centers on the web, where a lot of traders prefer to work, while working alongside the mobile wallet. Traders like having both, Bid said: the web for focused trading, and a phone for checking the market or closing a position away from the desk. Bid did not give a launch date for Terminal.

Upgrade AI Agents Return to the Roadmap
Asked whether the wallet would add capabilities for AI agents, Bid answered, “Yes, 100%.” The team has worked on agent features for some time, set them aside at one point because it had to prioritize what it shipped, and has now picked them back up, Bid said, with the aim of making them useful “from human and from agent side.” On timing, Bid said: “AI agents, I think end of this year.”
Coinbase already lets outside AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT connect to a Coinbase Wallet through its Wallet MCP, which requires the user to approve every transaction an agent proposes. Bid did not say how the planned features would relate to that tool. Robinhood said in September that it is bringing AI agents into its own app.
Wallet Activity Since JulyCross-chain transactions in the wallet rose 10x over the three months before the interview, Bid said, and spot trading volume grew 2.5 times since July. The swap success rate reached up to 99%, cross-chain swaps included, and the wallet recently added limit orders on EVM chains.
Prediction markets, added through Polymarket and limited by region, trail spot trading and, Bid believes, perpetual futures in popularity. Companywide, Coinbase reported on Oct. 29 that its prediction markets business has topped $200 million in annualized revenue; its earnings deck did not break out the wallet.
Host Laura Shin cited a 12x jump in Solana trading in the wallet over three months. Bid said the team ran no Solana-specific incentives and credited better swap execution, interface work and new discovery tools.
The wallet, which became Base App in July 2025 before returning to its old name in September, also added perpetual futures through an integration with Hyperliquid. The team watched for spot traders moving to perps and was “very surprised not seeing anything,” Bid said, adding that perps instead drew in new traders.
