Coinbase has announced a new partnership with the AI search platform Perplexity to provide traders direct access to reliable, real-time crypto market data.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong shared the update on July 10 via social platform X, confirming that Phase 1 of the integration is now live.

According to him, Perplexity is currently ingesting Coinbase’s live market data—including the COIN50 index—to support crypto price discovery and analysis. This allows users to explore real-time market shifts using Perplexity’s new browser, Comet.

He furthered that this feature helps traders “double-click” into price movements for deeper insight and smarter decisions.

The Coinbase CEO added:

“This new access to reliable real-time data via increasingly intelligent LLMs will help lots more people make smart, informed decisions about crypto. It’s a great step forward!”

Armstrong also stated that the Perplexity team has noted that user engagement with crypto topics now matches interest in equities. This reflects the growing mainstream relevance of digital assets.

AI-powered trading tools

Armstrong pointed out that in Phase 2 of the rollout, Coinbase’s market data will power Perplexity’s AI-generated responses for its users’ queries.

This next step will introduce a conversational interface that enables traders to screen for potential opportunities, monitor token-specific activity, and interpret trends. All of this will be available within a single AI-enhanced platform.

Aravind Srinivas, Perplexity CEO, also confirmed this, saying:

“[We have partnered] Coinbase to bring in real time crypto data into Perplexity Finance! We will begin to surface this directly into user queries shortly.”

The integration is being facilitated by CoinbaseDev, Coinbase’s developer-friendly infrastructure for data access and app-building.

Meanwhile, Armstrong expressed optimism about this initiative’s broader implications. He noted that integrating accurate, real-time crypto data with large language models could catalyze the next wave of innovation.

The Coinbase CEO also hinted at a future where crypto wallets are fully integrated into AI systems. He described this as a significant move toward a permissionless, digital economy.
