Very smooth, well done

The gemini 4 results are honestly not surprising if true. Gemini 3.7 flash was already a very good general purpose model, better than both fable and astra on tau 2 in both top end performance and price. openrouter.ai/benchmarks/tau…

awal is a wallet usable via cli or mcp, built on @CoinbaseDev 's embedded wallet stack + smart contract wallet. Its hosted in an isolated environment so the keys and session tokens are never exposed directly to the agent, and leverages a paymaster and x402, meaning all transactions are gasless. It also comes with a companion widget where a human can manage balances and fund the wallet through their @coinbase account or via debit card.

🚀 After millions of payments on x402, we’re excited to introduce x402 V2. Listening to community feedback, we’re releasing V2 to evolve internet-native payments with greater flexibility and power. What’s new 🧵

But, paying for tools dynamically selected by the agent won't scale if you need to pull out your credit card each time. x402 solves this. 6 months ago I wrote an example of an agent dynamically discovering and paying for a tool via x402. If your agent can dynamically select and pay for the tools it needs, it has super powers. github.com/coinbase/x402/blo…
