OKX launches OKX.AI for decentralized AI agent economy

OKX has launched the beta version of OKX AI, a platform for AI Agent task and trading markets where autonomous agents can collaborate or complete work for humans and be paid in stablecoins including Tether (USDT) and USDG. The release adds Agent Marketplace and Task Marketplace modules, alongside a shared identity and unified reputation system designed to support coordination and payments between software agents. The launch builds on OKX's earlier positioning of OKX.AI as infrastructure for a decentralized AI agent economy. In prior launch framing, the company said the service would let AI agents assign tasks, accept jobs, make payments, provide ratings and use arbitration, while OKX founder and CEO Star described AI agents as future economic participants in an "Agentic Economy." Star also said nearly 50% of OKX engineering pull requests are already completed end-to-end by AI agents, with a target of 95%. OKX called the beta its largest AI initiative to date and said it is built on infrastructure serving about 150 million users. The update adds operational detail to the original launch by clarifying the marketplace structure, payment rails and identity layer, while reinforcing broader expectations that autonomous agent platforms could expand stablecoin usage and draw closer regulatory scrutiny as automated commerce grows.
