AI & Agents ·
Base, Coinbase's Ethereum layer-2 network, is selecting 10 startups for its Batches 004 accelerator program, with each team receiving $100,000 from the Base Ecosystem Fund. The eight-week virtual initiative targets pre-seed companies developing AI agents, trading products, payments infrastructure, and financing solutions, with applications closing September 9 and a Demo Day scheduled for November in New York. Base requires participating teams to use the network as their primary blockchain, though they may build on multiple chains, and is particularly interested in founders with fintech experience and builders focused on stablecoin-based agent applications.
