Binance opens crypto trading to AI agents with user-set controls

Binance has launched Agent OS, a developer platform that allows AI agents to access market data, monitor user accounts and execute crypto trades on the exchange.

According to a company announcement, the platform supports AI tools including ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor, allowing users to authorize agents to view account information and place trades within configured permissions and limits.

Users can assign agents to dedicated subaccounts to separate funds and trading activity, configure their permissions and revoke access at any time. Binance said it can monitor trades placed through Agent OS but cannot see an agent’s external information sources, interpretation or decision-making, which occur within the user’s chosen AI application.

Agent OS also connects agents to Binance’s payment and onchain tools, allowing them to make payments and interact with wallets and other onchain services.

Crypto exchanges move deeper into AI agents

Binance joins a growing group of crypto exchanges opening their trading infrastructure to AI agents.

Coinbase launched Coinbase for Agents in June, allowing AI models including ChatGPT and Claude to connect to user accounts and autonomously execute crypto trades and strategies. The tool also supports agent-driven payments through Coinbase’s x402 protocol.
