Phantom, Solana’s most used wallet, launched a server based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) on February 17th. This new infrastructure will allow various artificial intelligence agents to interact directly with users’ wallets, allowing them to manage their crypto assets and scheduled payments in an automated manner.
This system allows financial tasks to be delegated through specific privileges that owners grant to agents. These autonomous agents process exchange requests and balance inquiries without continuous manual intervention by investors. Final confirmation requires the user’s final approval. Agents working with MCP do not share private keys or seeds, only commands and execution, Fanton said.
Collaboration between wallets and agents takes place through standardized communication interfaces. When buying or selling assets, users can direct orders to agents in natural language, and the wallet handles the entire process. An example of this is making a request to close a short position if the price increases by 5%. AI interprets orders, evaluates market prices and executes them.
MCP protocol is a “universal bridge” Connect natural language user commands to artificial intelligence (AI) language models. This will allow agents to view inventory of tokens and suggest financial moves based on market conditions and user requests.
Despite the announcement of the MCP server, from Phantom It was revealed that the agent system is under consideration. Allow developers to start testing and implementing. We also recommend using a different account when attempting to avoid loss of funds.
This is how Phantom joins the group. There is a growing trend to integrate support for artificial intelligence. As reported by CriptoNoticias, Coinbase last week launched a new wallet with specific tools for autonomous agents. In February, the Lightning Network received a toolkit that can, among other things, automatically manage the liquidity of Bitcoin’s second-tier channels.
Following the launch of MCP, the company also announced that it is working on integrating perpetual futures trading and prediction markets. This will enhance the functionality of the AI agent inside the Phantom. Phantom is a wallet that can use Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Sui networks in addition to Solana.
