Coinbase Agents in Action Hackathon

🥇 Best Use of x402pay + CDP Wallet

Prize: $5,000 total (1st: $3,000 / 2nd: $1,500 / 3rd: $500)

**Bonus: Eligible for up to $10,000 in AWS credits with effective use of Amazon Bedrock, Nova, or AWS stack**

Build full-stack autonomous agents that use x402pay to monetize access and CDP Wallet to manage crypto flows — from charging users to splitting, routing, and disbursing funds automatically.

We’re looking for real-world applications that demonstrate the power of composable, revenue-generating infrastructure:

Pay-per-use agents with automated payouts

Self-funding apps that manage their own treasuries

Agents that split revenue between wallets or contributors

**💡 Example Projects**
An AI agent that charges users per query and tips contributors via CDP Wallet

A bounty board bot that collects entry fees and routes prize payouts automatically

A micro-SaaS service that uses x402pay for gated access and CDP Wallet for affiliate splits

**🧠 Judging Criteria**
Effective use of both x402pay and CDP Wallet

Completeness of payment loop: revenue in → payment out

Real-world relevance: solves an actual need or use case

Composability: reusable flows, templates, or modular logic

Creativity: novel agents or new financial primitives

Technical execution: clean, working code with a video demo

🥈 Best Use of CDP Wallet

Prize: $2,000 total (1st: $1,000 / 2nd: $700 / 3rd: $300)

**Bonus: Eligible for up to $10,000 in AWS credits with effective use of Amazon Bedrock, Nova, or AWS services**

Build agents that don’t just act — they manage money. This track rewards developers who use CDP Wallet to program autonomous agents that hold, send, and route crypto in composable, secure, and automated ways.

We’re looking for agents that:

Manage balances on behalf of users, DAOs, or services

Execute logic-based payouts, splits, or recurring transfers

Create novel wallet flows like milestone releases, event-based tipping, or pooled rewards

**💡 Example Projects**
A DAO treasury agent that routes payments based on governance outcomes

A gig work bot that pays contributors when tasks are completed and verified

A rebalancing agent that shifts funds across wallets or protocols based on market data

**🧠 Judging Criteria**
Effective integration of CDP Wallet API

Clarity of wallet logic: who gets paid, when, and how

Utility and reusability in financial or agentic workflows

Creative or modular architecture: tipping, batch payouts, streams

Working video demo required

Bonus for integrations with AWS services or x402pay

🥉 Best Use of x402pay

Prize: $1,000 total (1st: $500 / 2nd: $300 / 3rd: $200)

**Bonus: Eligible for up to $10,000 in AWS credits with effective use of Amazon Bedrock, Nova, or AWS stack**

Build agents that monetize their capabilities by charging users per interaction, query, or service using x402pay — Coinbase’s protocol for API-native payments. This track rewards builders who create useful, metered agents that turn access into revenue.

We’re looking for agents that offer:

Pay-per-use workflows or gated functionality

Monetized APIs, LLM access, or compute tasks

New models for digital goods, SaaS tools, or AI-as-a-service

**💡 Example Projects**
An LLM agent that charges $0.01 per GPT response via x402pay

A data-processing agent that requires payment before analyzing or summarizing content

A metered API gateway agent that handles per-endpoint billing with built-in usage tracking

**🧠 Judging Criteria**
Effective and functional use of x402pay for monetization

Clarity of payment logic: user pays, access unlocks

Realistic use case with repeatable value

Integration quality: clean API handling, tokens, receipts

Creativity: unique application of monetization in an agentic context

Working video demo required
