Coinbase CDP Prize Implementation

Partner Prize | Build a Great Onchain App Using CDP

βœ… What We Built: Multi-Tool CDP Integration

We use 3 CDP tools: Server Wallets, x402 Authorization, and Data APIs

πŸ€–

CDP Server Wallets

AI agents use CDP server wallets for 24/7 autonomous operation. No private key exposure.

πŸ”

x402 Authorization

Users grant x402 authorization to agent wallets for recurring rebalance operations without repeated approvals.

πŸ“Š

CDP Data APIs

Query token balances, transaction history, and webhook notifications for real-time portfolio tracking.

⚑

Trade API Ready

Infrastructure ready for CDP Trade API integration for optimal swap routing.

🌐

Multi-Chain Support

CDP server wallets operate across all 8 supported chains simultaneously.

πŸ”’

Non-Custodial

Users retain full control. Agents can only execute approved rebalancing strategies.

πŸ“ Code Evidence

πŸ“ backend/src/agent/wallet.ts

CDP Server Wallet initialization and management for autonomous agents

import { Coinbase, Wallet } from "../lib/coinbase-sdk";
const wallet = await Wallet.create({ networkId: "base-sepolia" });
await wallet.invokeContract({ contractAddress, method, args });
πŸ“ backend/src/agent/rebalancer.ts

Core rebalancing agent that uses CDP wallets to execute autonomous yield optimization

class RebalancingAgent {
private wallet: Wallet; // CDP Server Wallet
async executeRebalance() {
// x402 authorization allows recurring execution
await this.wallet.sendTransaction(...);
}
}
πŸ“ contracts/HedgePodVault.sol

Smart contract grants x402 authorization to CDP agent wallets for recurring operations

mapping(address => bool) public authorizedAgents;
function grantX402Authorization(address agent) external onlyOwner {
authorizedAgents[agent] = true;
emit AgentAuthorized(msg.sender, agent);
}
πŸ“ frontend/lib/supabase.ts

CDP Data API integration for portfolio tracking and agent performance analytics

Real-time agent performance tracking, balance queries, transaction webhooks
πŸ“ backend/src/config/index.ts

CDP API keys and configuration for server wallet management

cdp: {
apiKeyName: process.env.CDP_API_KEY,
privateKey: process.env.CDP_API_SECRET
}

πŸ” x402 Authorization: How It Works

1️⃣
Deploy Agent
User creates agent with strategy parameters
2️⃣
Grant x402
One-time authorization to CDP agent wallet
3️⃣
Agent Monitors
CDP wallet checks yields 24/7 autonomously
4️⃣
Auto Rebalance
Agent executes without user approval needed

πŸ’‘ This is the killer feature: Set it once, forget it. No constant wallet popups.

πŸ”΄ Live Demo

πŸ€– See CDP Agents in Action

Deploy an agent powered by CDP server wallets and watch it autonomously rebalance

πŸ€– True Agent Autonomy via CDP

🚫 Without CDP Server Wallets:
  • User must approve every rebalance transaction
  • Agent can't operate when user is offline/asleep
  • Miss optimal yield opportunities due to delays
  • Terrible UX with constant wallet popups
βœ… With CDP Server Wallets + x402:
  • Agent operates 24/7 without user interaction
  • Executes rebalances in real-time when APR delta detected
  • User grants authorization once, never bothered again
  • True "set it and forget it" autonomous DeFi
