- Coinbase data now powers Perplexity’s Comet browser for live crypto market analysis.
- Future phases will embed data into Perplexity’s conversational AI for trade screening.
- Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong says crypto wallet integration with AI could unlock a digital, permissionless economy.
Coinbase (COIN) has partnered with AI search engine startup Perplexity AI to give traders easier access to real-time, trustworthy crypto market data, the companies said Wednesday.

The move, announced by Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong on X, aims to help users make faster and better-informed trading decisions by integrating the exchange’s data directly into Perplexity’s AI tools.
The collaboration begins today with what Armstrong called “Phase 1.” Coinbase’s market data will be integrated into Perplexity’s Comet browser, a real-time search tool. This will allow users to dig into market trends, monitor price action and explore token fundamentals through a live AI-powered interface.
“Crypto is going mainstream,” Armstrong wrote on X, noting that according to Perplexity, just as many people are searching for information on cryptocurrencies as they are on traditional equities.
In the next phase of the rollout, Coinbase data will be built directly into Perplexity’s conversational AI. That will let traders screen for new trading ideas, monitor token performance and analyze on-chain activity through natural-language queries.
The deeper integration will be part of what Armstrong sees as a bigger trend. “I expect enhanced crypto functionality will be a catalyst for AI to achieve another 10x unlock,” Armstrong wrote on X. “Personally I’m most excited to see crypto wallets fully integrated into LLMs one day. That will be a huge step towards a permissionless, digital economy.”
The partnership highlights a growing intersection between crypto and artificial intelligence — two sectors frequently touted as transformative but still searching for practical overlap.
COIN was down about 1% on the day, trading at $370.60 at the time of publication.
