Key Highlights about Ethereum:
1. Artificial Intelligence as the "Largest User" of Ethereum
Coinbase developers expect that autonomous AI agents will become one of the largest consumers of the Ethereum network in the future.
Technical standards HTTP 402 and EIP-3009 enable these agents to execute independent financial transactions using stablecoins, without human intervention.
---
2. How does the system work?
The “x402” protocol approved by Coinbase allows agents to respond to electronic payment requests, sign the transaction, and execute it immediately as in a vending machine—all in a single interaction round without the need for human accounts or authorizations.
---
3. Why is Ethereum the most suitable?
The network offers instant payment infrastructure (Atomic Payments), programmed policies, and interoperable wallets—making it ideal for advanced AI applications.
---
4. Ongoing real-world experiments
Some experiments have already begun to implement this technology:
Hyperbolic Labs integrated HTTP 402 into its language models (LLM).
Prodia Labs uses agents to automatically create media content (images/videos).

Coinbase expects that as artificial intelligence transitions into independent agents capable of making payments and executing transactions via protocols like x402, the Ethereum network will become the leading platform for these automated transactions,
