Market Data Now Integrated into Perplexity

The partnership starts with integrating Coinbase’s market data into Perplexity’s browser-based platform. This includes the COIN50 index and other key market metrics. Users can now track price movements by clicking on tokens within the Perplexity Comet browser. This offers a real-time snapshot of price activity and relevant market events.

The move is designed to help traders respond faster to shifts in token behavior. By using this system, users can identify trends and price actions without switching between multiple tools. The interface prioritizes efficiency and real-time decision-making.

Backed by the Coinbase Developer Platform

The Coinbase Developer Platform played a key role in enabling this rollout. It provided the integration tools that allowed the two platforms to connect seamlessly. Coinbase has been investing in infrastructure to help developers build and launch new crypto tools. Meanwhile, Coinbase recently introduced Coinbase Payments, a new stablecoin payment system for commerce platforms. 

Armstrong noted that crypto-related searches have now reached levels equal to equity searches. This indicates growing public interest in digital assets. The firm views this as a sign of mainstream movement into crypto markets.

Conversational Tools to Drive Next Phase

The next development phase will bring live market data directly into Perplexity’s conversation interface. This will allow users to interact with data in a more natural and simplified way. They will be able to ask questions about specific tokens and receive data-driven answers instantly.

Users can screen assets, view token activity, and gather context through a conversational format. This aims to eliminate the need to cross-check multiple charts and data sources. It gives retail traders quicker access to market signals and supports informed decisions.

The goal is to shift from manual research to a guided, intelligent interaction model. The change is built for users who want fast answers without navigating complex tools or dashboards.

Future Vision: AI Wallets and Smart Management

Coinbase also envisions AI-driven crypto wallets that support asset tracking, analysis, and execution. These tools would offer full-service asset management in a single interface. The combination of AI with crypto infrastructure could lead to more digital-first financial ecosystems.

In addition, Coinbase recently acquired Liquifi, a token management firm focused on early-stage crypto projects. This marks Coinbase’s fourth acquisition in 2025. Liquifi supports vesting, cap tracking, and regulatory compliance, helping developers streamline token launches.
