Coinbase co-founder and CEO Brian Armstrong said in a post on X that Base’s earlier push around creator coins did not succeed and that the network completed a strategic shift earlier this year. He said Base is now focused on three connected priorities: trading, payments, and AI agents. Armstrong added that payments require foreign exchange trading, while AI agents are also expected to involve a large number of trading and payment use cases. At present, most of Base’s resources have been directed toward trading, making it the project’s main operating focus.
