Coinbase launches x402 Bazaar, creating an AI proxy "search engine" platform that supports service discovery and payment

Odaily Planet Daily News Coinbase, the US cryptocurrency exchange, launched x 402 Bazaar, the first discovery layer for AI agents, known as the proxy version of "search engine". The platform provides a unified portal for autonomous AI agents to help them automatically find, interact and pay to access new services, thereby achieving self-evolution. Previously, the AI ​​proxy function was limited by developer presets and the expansion was slow. x 402 Bazaar breaks this bottleneck, allowing agents to automatically obtain financial data, call image and video generation tools, and even book performances or manage business processes. Coinbase said this will promote the popularization of "self-improving AI agents", and there may be AI companies that can operate independently in the future. x 402 Bazaar is built on the x 402 protocol, which is an open payment protocol developed by Coinbase. It supports real-time payment of stablecoins through HTTP, exempting the account and subscription process, allowing AI agents to independently discover and pay services in application scenarios.
