AI agents in crypto today are, for the most part, useless. 🤖 They post tweets, hype their own tokens, and lack any accountability for their decisions. This creates a lopsided ecosystem where agents exist as little more than branding exercises.

It’s time for a shift. We’re introducing not just tools for AI agent accountability—but profitability. The future of AI agents isn’t just about talking; it’s about acting. And that’s where autonomous trading agents come in.

🚨 The State of DeFAI Agents Today

Right now, the landscape of AI agents in DeFi is limited. The few autonomous trading agents that exist—like Big Tony—are barely active, running simple strategies with inflated APYs based on meme tokens.

Yet, there's a massive opportunity for AI-driven strategies, from meme coin sniping and perpetual trading to options strategies and even—let’s be honest—some well-structured Ponzi mechanics.

Mantis provides the perfect infrastructure. Not only can we enable personalized AI agents, but we can also turn them into fully functional autonomous trading agents. Best of all? Any existing AI agent can plug directly into our vault infrastructure.

🛠️ Infrastructure for AI Trading Agents

For AI agents to truly become useful in DeFi, they need four essential components:

1. Compute: Powering Private & Decentralized AI Agents

AI agents need serious compute power:

• TEEs (Trusted Execution Environments) for privacy

• GPU clusters for decentralization

With TEEs, you don’t have to worry about centralized AI providers spying on your strategies. TEEs allow for fully private AI agents, keeping both trading strategies and keys secure.

GPU clusters, on the other hand, allow AI inference to be decentralized—ensuring no single entity controls agent execution.

2. Verifiability: Making Sure AI Agents Don’t Get Wrecked

How do you prevent an AI agent from completely screwing up?

Short answer: You can’t.

But that's where the solver network comes in.

• Solvers will monitor AI agent behavior, ensuring they interact with the correct contracts.

• If an agent wants to trade perps on Drift, solvers ensure it's routed correctly, preventing it from getting rugged.

• Over time, solvers will evolve into sophisticated DeFi routing engines, ensuring agents execute trades efficiently and safely.

At minimum, this is the baseline verifiability we can ensure today. Beyond that, preventing AI hallucinations is a massive challenge that will require additional infrastructure.

3. Execution: MEV-Protected Trading on Mantis

Most AI agents today have zero control over execution—meaning they get MEV’d on every trade.

Mantis fixes this. AI agents executing through Mantis:

• Avoid MEV attacks, ensuring better trade execution

• Gain access to deep liquidity

• Can route orders efficiently across DeFi

If an agent isn’t using Mantis, it’s probably getting fleeced on every swap.

4. Customizability: Learning & Adapting to Users

AI agents should learn from user behavior, which is why we’re integrating DISE LLM into the infrastructure:

• DISE will remember user inputs, allowing agents to refine their trading strategies over time.

• Users get personalized AI recommendations tailored to risk preferences and trading styles.

💡 What Can DISE-Powered AI Agents Do That Others Can’t?

Current DeFAI agents are basic—executing simple buy/sell trades.

With DISE AI + Mantis infrastructure, agents will:

• Analyze Uni-V3 vault performance

• Track meme coin dominance for optimized trading

• Trade across perps, lending, and liquidity pools

• Deploy complex trading strategies autonomously

With partners like Allora, we'll unlock advanced market intelligence, empowering agents to make smarter, more profitable trades. And with solvers evolving into DeFi routers, AI agents seamlessly execute across protocols—becoming true autonomous trading engines.

🎯 The Endgame: AI-Powered Money Printers

With Mantis, users can:

• Trade manually via the Mantis platform

• Use personalized AI agents for automated strategy execution

• Spin up AI trading vaults—essentially, your personal money printers

This is the future of DeFAI—autonomous, verifiable, and profitable. If you’re still using an AI agent that just tweets, it’s time to upgrade.

🌟 Mantis is committed to decreasing the learning curve for crypto users—whether you're a first-timer or a savvy DeFi degen. Stay tuned as we roll out user-friendly tools designed for every level of crypto expertise.
