Your AI agent can trade and transact for you
Connect the AI you already use to Coin Nerds, and it can act on your account: buy, sell, and swap crypto, order foreign currency before your trip, pay a bill, or keep a weekly purchase running. You say it in plain language. Every coin still lands in a wallet you control.
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible agent.
What your agent can do
You talk. Your agent transacts. Your wallet holds the coins.
Once connected, Coin Nerds becomes something your agent can act on, not just talk about. It quotes at the live rate, shows you what you pay and what you receive, and executes only within the permissions you granted.
Before a trip
On a schedule
On a schedule
Foreign currency ordered at the live rate for branch pickup or delivery, before you are anywhere near an airport kiosk. Tell your agent the dates and it handles the rest.
Recurring buys, payout liquidation, rebalancing, and rules that keep running after you close the laptop, with a locked OTC quote when the size calls for it.
Scope
Everything the website does, your agent can do for you
Same rails, same live market rates, same non-custodial delivery. The only difference is who is asking.
- Read
- Live prices in any currency we quote, your balances, open orders, and full history.
- Trade
- Buy, sell, and swap across 3,000+ assets at the live rate the agent shows you before it commits.
- Forex
- Order foreign currency at the live rate for branch pickup or delivery, so the cash is ready before the trip.
- Pay
- Withdraw to a wallet or bank and pay bills, only when the connection carries that permission.
- Automate
- Recurring buys, payout rules, rebalancing, and conditions that run without you watching.
Connect
Two steps, then your agent is transacting
- Step 1
Create an agent key with only the permissions it needs
In your dashboard, create a key for your agent and choose its permissions: read, trade, or pay. Lock it to one IP address. Revoke it in one click if anything ever looks wrong.

- Step 2
Add Coin Nerds to your agent
Coin Nerds speaks MCP, the standard your agent already uses to connect to tools. Add it in your agent's settings with your key, and Coin Nerds appears as something the agent can act on in normal conversation. That is the whole setup.

Why you can trust an agent with this
There is no balance for an agent to drain
Every other exchange racing to give AI agents access shares one problem: the agent acts against a custodial balance, so a badly worded prompt or a leaked key can empty an account. Coin Nerds is non-custodial. Every purchase your agent makes is delivered on-chain to a wallet you control, so there is nothing sitting on our books for an agent to drain, because we never hold your crypto in the first place.
On top of that, every agent connection carries exactly the permissions you chose. Give a market-watching agent read only. Give the one that runs your weekly buy trade access. Keep payments for yourself. Each key is locked to one IP address and revocable from your dashboard in a click, so if anything looks wrong, you turn it off in seconds. And a real person is on chat 24/7, 365 days a year, for you and for your agent.
“You set the rules. Your agent does the work. Your wallet holds the coins.”
What Coin Nerds CLI is
Coin Nerds CLI is agentic AI trading and transacting for the Coin Nerds exchange. It lets the AI agents you already use, including Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Gemini, act on your Coin Nerds account over MCP, the open standard agents use to connect to tools. Once connected, your agent can quote and buy, sell, or swap any of 3,000+ cryptocurrencies, order foreign currency for pickup or delivery before a trip, pay a bill, check balances and history, and set up automations that keep running on their own. You ask in plain language, the agent shows you what you pay and what you receive at the live rate, and it executes only within the permissions you granted.
It is the same rails you use on this website, with a different front door. The prices are the live market. The orders settle the same way. The humans still answer the phone. The only difference is that an agent acting for you is asking instead of your finger clicking.
AI agent crypto trading without handing over your coins
Every other exchange racing to give AI agents trading access shares one problem: the agent trades against a custodial balance, so a badly prompted agent or a leaked key can empty an account. Coin Nerds is non-custodial, and that changes the risk math completely. Every purchase your agent makes is delivered on-chain to a wallet you control. There is no balance sitting on our books for an agent to drain, because we never hold your crypto in the first place.
Add scoped permissions on top of that and you get an agent you can actually trust with money. Grant read-only access to an agent that just watches the market. Grant trade access to the one that runs your dollar-cost averaging or orders your travel money. Reserve payments and withdrawals for yourself. Every connection is locked to a single IP address and can be revoked from your dashboard in one click, so if anything ever looks wrong, you turn it off in seconds.
How to let an AI agent trade and transact for you
Getting started takes minutes. Sign in to your dashboard, create a key for your agent with the permissions it needs, then add Coin Nerds to your agent's MCP settings. Your agent immediately gains the ability to quote, trade, order forex, check balances, and set up automations on your account. From then on you just talk to it.
From there, the use cases write themselves. A weekly Bitcoin purchase you never think about again. Foreign currency ordered for pickup before you travel, without a trip to the kiosk. Mining payouts sold the hour they land and settled to your business account. A treasury assistant that converts crypto revenue to fiat before month end. A buy-the-dip rule that never sleeps. Whatever you build, real human support, 24/7, 365 days a year, is one call away, for you and for your agent.
Give your agent a real exchange
Create an agent key, connect the AI you already use, and let it trade crypto and order forex the way you would, minus the tab-switching.
