Coinbase is testing AI agents that show up on Slack and email

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said the company has started testing AI agents on Slack and email to assist employees with work tasks, continuing the company’s efforts to embed AI into its workflows.

In a post to X on Saturday, Armstrong said the company has already deployed two AI agents, modeled after two former executives, speculating that AI agents could eventually outnumber human employees at the crypto exchange.

“Soon, it will be easy for any employee to spin up a new agent for themselves or their team. I suspect we will have more agents than human employees at some point soon.”

Major tech companies have laid off thousands of employees this year as they increased their reliance on AI. Armstrong has been pushing for AI to automate more workflows at Coinbase, stating in September that he wants more than 50% of the company’s code to be written by AI.

A month before, Coinbase said one of its biggest focuses is to transform its more than 4,000-member workforce into “AI-Natives.”

Coinbase introduces AI agents Fred and Balaji

One of the AI agents is Fred, named after Coinbase co-founder Fred Ehrsam. Fred will

serve as the company’s “strategic executive agent,” assisting Coinbase workers with strategic clarity and priority alignment while offering executive-level feedback.

The other is Balaji, the agent of chaos and creativity who was modeled after Coinbase’s former chief technology officer, Balaji Srinivasan.

Balaji has been brought in to challenge assumptions and assist Coinbase employees with thinking outside the box in an effort to “spark innovation.”

Aave, one of the largest decentralized lending platforms, effectively froze Tuesday after all its major lending protocols ran out of available funds, leaving users unable to withdraw billions of dollars in crypto, DeFi Warhold said as he explained what the 100% utilization means.

Roughly $5 billion in stablecoins $USDT and $USDC are effectively locked, Warhold added, saying the protocol has no liquidity to pay out those assets .

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

A bill meant to bring order to the US crypto market is stuck in Congress, caught between two powerful groups that cannot agree on one key question: should stablecoins be allowed to pay interest?

Banks And Crypto In A Legislative Standoff
The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 — known as the CLARITY Act — was drafted to establish rules for how crypto assets are classified and overseen in the US. But the bill hit a wall after Coinbase and other crypto companies publicly opposed earlier versions of it.

Among their objections: the bill would ban yield-bearing stablecoins. Banks, for their part, have pushed hard to keep that ban in place.

Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina has been working on a revised draft aimed at satisfying both sides, but reports say it has already drawn pushback and has yet to be released publicly.

The standoff reflects a deeper anxiety in the banking industry — one that a senior Moody’s analyst says may be premature, at least for now.

Near-Term Risk Remains Low, Analyst Says
Abhi Srivastava, associate vice president at Moody’s Investors Service Digital Economy Group, said that the threat stablecoins pose to traditional banks is limited at this point in the adoption cycle.

The US already has payment systems that are fast, low-cost, and trusted, he said, which reduces the appeal of stablecoin-based alternatives for everyday transactions.

According to Srivastava, the current legal prohibition on stablecoins paying yield is a key reason they are unlikely to pull deposits away from banks at any meaningful scale in the near term.

The abrupt cancellation of U.S. Vice President ’s planned visit to has intensified geopolitical uncertainty, triggering sharp reactions across global financial markets. The trip was expected to support diplomatic engagement involving , but Tehran’s refusal to participate derailed the initiative, raising concerns over escalating regional tensions and the stability of key energy corridors.

Oil markets responded immediately, with prices surging on fears of potential supply disruptions, particularly around the . In contrast, risk assets declined as investors shifted toward safer positions. The recorded notable losses, while also pulled back, reflecting broader market caution.

Looking ahead, market direction will likely hinge on geopolitical developments. If tensions escalate or negotiations remain stalled, oil prices could continue their upward trajectory, potentially exceeding key resistance levels. Meanwhile, equities and cryptocurrencies may face sustained pressure in the short term. However, any renewed diplomatic progress could quickly restore investor confidence, supporting a rebound in both traditional and digital assets.

Overall, the situation highlights the growing sensitivity of global markets to geopolitical risk, with volatility expected to persist until clearer signals emerge.
