Nansen CEO: AI Trading Agents May Surpass Human Traders Within Two Years

TechFlow reports, on July 28, according to The Block, Nansen CEO Alex Svanevik stated that AI trading agents are expected to surpass human traders within the next two years. To this end, Nansen is expanding its platform from on-chain data analysis to direct trade execution, aiming to achieve "all-asset on-chain trading via agents." He mentioned that the platform has launched relevant trading functions, with cumulative trading volume exceeding $500 million.

Svanevik believes that AI agents possess higher diversity and adaptability compared to human traders, but also face the risk of input data being contaminated or manipulated. Currently, Nansen is still testing related products through backtesting and simulated trading, and has not yet deployed them into real capital environments on a large scale. Additionally, he revealed that among the 15 most active perpetual contracts on the Nansen platform, about 10 are non-crypto assets, including the S&P 500, gold, silver, and crude oil.
