SIA: From Super AI Trading Platform to a Chain-Enabled AI Ecosystem
Over the past year, the Crypto × AI trend has taken turns in the limelight. AI chains, AI computing power, AI Agents, AI infrastructure... Each wave of narrative came on strong, but the projects that truly captivated users are few and far between. In terms of mindshare, the most practical application remains the chatbot Agent.
Meanwhile, the Web2 world is undergoing a profound transformation. AI IDEs like Cursor have already begun reshaping developers' workflows, Veo3 has made text-to-video generation practical and trustworthy, Claude and GPT-5 have also entered real production environments—AI as an underlying capability is increasingly being deeply integrated into real-world scenarios. However, looking at the Crypto world, it seems to still be in the conceptual exploration stage, in stark contrast to the rapid deployment pace of the former.
Crypto AI seems to be more and more like an outsider, urgently in need of truly useful applications. The ultimate convergence point of AI×Web3 lies not in models, not in coins, but in the Agent and the network structure itself, finding the right Product-Market Fit (PMF) to enable scenarios to land and commercialize. And this is exactly what SIA set out to do.
What SIA is doing is not hyping AI, let alone hyping Web3, but turning AI into a "user-friendly service"
In the fragmented digital world, future interactions should be "users speak, AI runs errands." Not in the traditional sense of question-and-answer AI, but service-oriented AI. SIA hopes to use AI Agents to build a true AI service network, where each Agent can interact with Web2 applications, collaborate with Web3 protocols, and work with other Agents to complete tasks, efficiently translating user intent into actionable tasks, and ultimately recording and distributing the results of their actions on-chain.
In simple terms, SIA (Super Intelligent Agent) is born for the AI Agent, integrating network infrastructure, technical architecture, and business scenarios into a unified ecosystem. Its goal is to analyze and infer user intent, move AI from answering questions to custom problem-solving, then transform custom problem-solving into executable, collaborative network nodes. Ultimately, leveraging Web3's identity system, smart contract mechanism, service authentication mechanism, and on-chain settlement capability to achieve a closed-loop logic of Code to Cash. This means that Agents are no longer just executing a script but are truly digital labor forces that can create value on-chain and receive income.
To achieve this goal, SIA has built four core capability modules, each of which is an essential foundation supporting the entire intelligent service system. First is the Distributed Intelligent Scheduling Engine, which realizes dynamic resource orchestration under a microservices architecture, coordinates the collaboration rhythm of multiple large models and execution nodes, supports asynchronous collaboration such as between large models and on-chain oracles, off-chain analyzers, greatly improving task completion rates. Second is the Data Fusion Furnace, which integrates information from different sources such as Web2 API data, on-chain asset changes, user intent, and behavioral trajectories into a unified insight system, enabling Agents to make more intelligent decisions in multidimensional data. Third, SIA fully supports the MCP protocol and A2A protocol, which is a key hub connecting Web2 and Web3, acting as a binding layer that allows DeFi protocols, social platforms, e-commerce systems, and other originally isolated application modules to collaborate like LEGO pieces. Finally, the Value Distribution Mechanism (supporting x402) injects economic drive into the entire system, accurately recording each Agent's contribution through on-chain contracts, ensuring transparent, fair, and automatic value return for each service call.
One-liner: Transforming user intent into executable instructions, transitioning AI from code models into genuine labor, turning a wallet into an order system, converting smart contracts into service fulfillment mechanisms. Allowing code to create value, achieving the true "code is capital" AgentFi new paradigm.
Why Can't Existing Crypto AI Break Through?
The entire Web3 ecosystem still has many shortcomings. There is significant data noise and low level of structure on the blockchain, with governance challenges much greater than in Web2. Different public blockchains have different smart contract languages and development environments, making it difficult to deploy AI models across chains, and inconsistent communication protocols between different chains increase development complexity. Additionally, most Crypto AI projects' tokens are only used for payment or incentives, failing to truly tie the value growth of AI services, leading to a strong speculative nature outweighing utility, and very slow actual business progress.
Within the current industry, several typical paths of Crypto AI projects mostly focus on a certain aspect of AI+Web3. For example, many projects attempt to address the high cost of AI/rendering industry computing power by pricing below centralized cloud services (such as AWS), but encounter issues with node quality discrepancies causing output quality fluctuations. Projects like Bittensor try to build a distributed AI model training network, but the technology is complex, preventing ordinary users from truly participating. Fetch.ai focuses on Autonomous Economic Agents (AI+DeFi), aiming to automatically execute tasks such as trading, data analysis, and supply chain optimization, but some modules (such as the agent communication protocol) are not modular enough in design, requiring future refactoring to support high-performance concurrency.
In summary, in the past, projects operated independently, with model training, computing power scheduling, protocol integration, and economic incentives all fragmented. Developers had to piece everything together from scratch, resulting in a very disjointed user experience. However, SIA's design logic is: not to make users bridge the gap but to allow Agents to bridge the gap. SIA uses Agent+network protocol+Web3 native components to turn what can work into a complete closed loop that can be "deployed, collaborated on, settled, and monetized." It no longer solves just a part of on-chain AI applications but builds an entire pathway covering the full process from request initiation, task scheduling, data processing, to behavior recording and value distribution.
Starting from AI Trading, Understanding SIA's Structure and Capabilities
SIA's investment trading platform is the first truly all-in-one Crypto AI Trading DApp. The emergence of AI trading is gradually reshaping investors' behavioral logic and market participation methods. SIA's trading platform makes Crypto trading simpler, smarter, and more secure through AI capabilities!
Unlike traditional quantitative trading relying on fixed mathematical models, AI trading can dynamically learn from market data, news events, and even real-time emotional fluctuations to understand market context like a human. It simultaneously avoids the weaknesses inherent in human nature—it tirelessly captures global opportunities 24/7, executes strategies calmly without being swayed by greed or fear, and patiently waits on the sidelines in the absence of certainty, a discipline that many traders find hard to maintain.
More importantly, AI trading is not completely devoid of human experience but, through prompt design and model fine-tuning, transforms mature trading concepts into reusable digital assets. Based on this characteristic, the SIA DApp provides users with functions ranging from natural language interaction to complex task decomposition, making it easy for users to achieve everything from strategy analysis to automated trade execution.
The trend indicates that the market is shifting toward an AI-centric collaborative model. In the future, whether one can leverage AI to enhance judgment rather than be replaced by it will be key to investors' competitive edge. AI can now autonomously adjust strategies through deep learning and even discover correlations unnoticed by humans. This means that market competition will no longer be just about fund size but more about the fusion efficiency of human wisdom and AI execution prowess.
SIA's AntAgents Platform is a perfect example of maximizing this collaborative model. On the platform, users can customize their trading styles and easily create their own trading Agents. Behind this feature lies SIA's wealth of investment trading experience and support for tens of thousands of strategies and trading Agents. SIA's AI trading strategy once achieved the first AUM ranking on Binance. SIA believes that by accumulating trading capabilities and handing back trading styles to users, ordinary users can also use AI to achieve better investment performance.
For novice users, it is possible to achieve cross-market, cross-platform, and cross-chain copy trading through natural language. Users can also engage in secure investment through the fund pool built by SIA's Super Agent and receive platform revenue sharing. SIA believes that every user can contribute their ideas, data, and even trading habits to this super AI trading platform. These valuable assets will also be fed back to every user through the platform's earnings.
The SIA Investment Trading Platform is an integrated trading platform that spans multiple chains, CEXs and DEXs, and various smart contracts. It provides users with the best investment addresses, allowing users to freely place orders on multiple platforms such as Aster, HyperLiquid, etc. Users can also track smart money addresses and engage in meme trading on chains like BSC, Solana, and more. For users with low risk tolerance, the platform offers them risk-free return products. By utilizing AI Agents for the first time to implement complex hedging strategies, users only need to tell the AI Agent their ideas for automatic execution.
SIA's ultimate goal is for users to impart their trading habits to the Agent, creating a digital twin for trading on the platform, enabling everyone to achieve 24/7 AI trading capabilities according to their own style. This capability is completely barrier-free. Through interaction with SIA's Agent network, users continuously generate and accumulate data for executing their decisions, reflecting their real decision logic and behavioral patterns, forming a valuable "digital fingerprint."
Currently, SIA is also integrating the x402 protocol to empower AI Agents with strong autonomous payment capabilities, significantly expanding their functional boundaries. This not only paves the way for the inclusive AgentFi vision but also enables the realization of individual Agent super-monetization in the Web3 field in the future. SIA believes that AI Agents are not exclusive to technical experts but a medium for every user to realize independent ideas. Every person's ideas can be implemented through SIA's platform and can achieve super-monetization of personal Agents in the Web3 space in the future.
Furthermore, SIA fully supports the BSC (Binance Smart Chain) and Aster ecosystems. SIA is in deep communication and discussions with Aster, focusing on user convenience and diverse needs. It provides Aster with SIA's comprehensive AI Trading service capabilities, catering to users in different fields with a one-stop digital asset service.
Originating from Transactions, SIA is "Breaking the Circle"
The first batch of applications on SIA chose scenarios most imbued with Web3 context awareness: automated transaction execution. However, what truly unleashes the value of the Agent Network is not the transactions themselves, but those scenarios with high-frequency calls and structured execution features. SIA provides an interface for external partners, allowing users on any platform to access SIA's AI capabilities, such as real-time quotes for various currencies, technical analysis, and strategic advice. Currently, the daily call volume exceeds 30 million tokens and is continuing to grow.
The SIA platform has various types of Agents, including transaction, prediction, and gaming Agents, that can provide support for multiple scenarios. For example, game developers only need to focus on game system design, while integration with on-chain wallets, access to large models, etc., can all be called on SIA's AntAgents Platform, allowing many developers unfamiliar with blockchain games and AI large models to deploy with just one click; social platforms can use SIA's edge-side Agents to allow users to exchange points, interactively incentivize, and bridge identities with external platforms without leaving the native environment.
SIA is building infrastructure that can provide smart plugins for any Web3 project. SIA's Agent capabilities are modular and composable, allowing it to efficiently collaborate with various Web3 protocols, platforms, and ecosystems, enabling seamless integration with exchanges, wallets, public chains, games, and social projects through a complete set of AI capabilities and service execution interfaces.
Looking to the future, SIA is far more than just a connector within Web3; it is also becoming the Google of the AI era and the best super traffic entrance from the Web2 world to the chain. A traditional application only needs to connect to SIA's Agent gateway, without the need to understand complex blockchain interaction logic, to achieve a full set of capabilities such as payments, signatures, on-chain task execution, etc.—truly realizing the possibility of one-click access to Web3. In due time, everyone's amazement will shift from one-click token issuance, one-click chain creation, to Web2 giants seamlessly entering the Web3 world.
These are not people who write whitepapers but a top-tier team that can truly make the system work
The team behind SIA are not storytellers but a group of people who have truly fought battles, delivered large-scale systems, and made business operations run. They come from the world's top technology companies, financial institutions, and Web3 projects, with years of practical experience in AI and Web3 and deep industry expertise.
On a technical level, SIA's core engineering leader and key members come from the global infrastructure teams of Alibaba and Huawei, having led the construction of large-scale network systems in markets such as Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America, with experience in building public chains and exchanges. They have been responsible for Alibaba Cloud's distributed architecture design, AI and blockchain system engineering implementation, and have global top-tier influence in cutting-edge areas such as TEE secure computing and privacy protection, having served as senior advisors to projects like Safeheron and led open source projects recommended by OpenAI. Additionally, team members have led the establishment of Southeast Asia's largest AI computing center and served as technology judges for a developer ecosystem with tens of thousands of developers, possessing a broad developer network and infrastructure vision.
In terms of Web3, SIA's team includes a founding member of TokenInsight, who built a global leading blockchain data and rating system eight years ago, established a multi-dimensional database covering exchanges, public chains, project teams, funds, etc., and successfully steered the company into the investment vision of top funds such as SIG, Distributed, Draper, and Matrix, possessing excellent industry resources.
On the business front, team members have investment and operational backgrounds from top international investment banks and asset management institutions such as J.P. Morgan, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank, CICC, managing long-term private placements and secondary market products worth billions of dollars. They have also served as strategic advisors or early-stage investors for many Web3 projects, with representative cases including Circle, Binance, Matrixport, etc.
The brand-new SIA website is live, it's time to seriously build a "usable on-chain AI"
Previous Crypto AI projects mostly seemed like a simple assembly of "AI shell + blockchain packaging." Today, AI capabilities are no longer scarce, and model services are gradually becoming public infrastructure. The real challenge is—how to truly "bring these capabilities on-chain," transforming them into structured services that are callable, collaborative, settleable, and composable.
What SIA provides is not a single "function package" but a complete operating system. It allows developers to customize Agents, enabling users to freely initiate service requests and ensuring that each on-chain call has a clear input, output, and value path.
AI should not only exist in a chat window; it should be able to perform tasks, sign contracts, and complete operations. Web3 should not just revolve around assets but should provide identity authentication, a settlement system, and a composable value structure for AI. SIA is the bridge connecting these two major domains.
With the launch of the brand-new website, SIA is ready!
