Binance launched Agent OS, a platform that lets developers connect AI applications and agents to its market data, account information and trading infrastructure. Users can authorize agents to place trades through dedicated sub-accounts, with withdrawals blocked by default. Users may require approval for each order or allow autonomous trading after configuring permissions. Binance does not set a separate trading-loss cap for an agent's sub-account; the funds transferred into it serve as the effective limit.
