Contragent is an AI-powered autonomous crypto trading agent.
Contragent is an AI-powered autonomous trading agent built for the cryptocurrency market. Its primary mission is to counter market manipulation and emotional trading by ensuring all decisions are based on verifiable data.
The system continuously monitors social media for crypto news and "hype." Crucially, this raw information is first put through a cryptographic verification process (WebProof) to ensure its authenticity and integrity. This verified data is then fed into an AI model (GPT-4o mini), which analyzes sentiment and generates precise SHORT or LONG trading signals.
What makes Contragent unique is its unwavering commitment to transparency and auditability. Every step of the AI's decision-making process – from the verified input to the AI's determined signal and subsequent trade execution – is immutably recorded on the Hedera Consensus Service. This creates a clear, verifiable, and permanent audit trail, ensuring trust and accountability in every automated trade.
Contragent is built on a robust stack designed for verifiable autonomy. We developed custom scripts for real-time news ingestion, then used a WebProof service to cryptographically verify data authenticity. An AI model (GPT-4o mini), configured for deterministic output, analyzes this verified data to generate precise SHORT or LONG trading signals. All AI decisions and trade details are immutably recorded on Hedera Consensus Service via the Hedera AI Agent Kit, ensuring full transparency. This allows us to verify AI decisions by hashing the structured output, not just raw text, providing an auditable chain from news to trade.
