Crypto intelligence platform Nansen is introducing an AI helper that aims to make trading cryptocurrencies on blockchains easier. They believe that this could bring more value back to public blockchains like Ethereum. On Thursday, the company revealed Nansen AI, a mobile assistant that talks back to users instead of just showing trading graphs for market advice. This new way of trading hopes to remove the usual trading charts and use an AI assistant for onchain trading, sharing insights through what they call “natural conversation” instead of complicated charts.
Nansen’s system is based on a large data collection of over 500 million labeled addresses. The goal is to give investors quicker and more precise information compared to regular tools like ChatGPT or Claude. According to Logan Brinkley, who is in charge of product design at Nansen, the company is focusing on research and insights first, helping users to find and make decisions faster. At the beginning, Nansen said that the platform will work with built-in wallets that users control themselves, supporting Ethereum and other major EVM blockchains. They plan to include 25 of the most popular networks and aim to add even more later on.
Brinkley explained that when the trading starts, the AI will prepare the order, but users will always confirm before anything happens. He described it as a helpful AI partner, with the humans making the final decision. Nansen AI stated that their new platform is meant to make trading digital assets easier to understand. According to Alex Svanevik, co-founder and CEO of Nansen, using AI for crypto trading will feel as easy as using mobile banking today.
“For years, investors have depended on dashboards and static charts to understand the markets”, Svanevik noted. Justin Sun, the founder of Tron Network, mentioned that Nansen’s new platform could help with better decision-making and promote responsible use of blockchain tech. He added that the AI agents will be the key in the digital asset world, changing how people access and understand information. Currently, AI agents are already conducting automatic blockchain transactions. For example, Luna, an AI program on Virtuals Protocol, recently paid another AI agent to create images.
Several venture capital firms, like Pantera Capital and Dragonfly, are watching this trend but haven’t invested much yet, as the people discussed in a panel at Consensus 2025 in Hong Kong. Nansen plans to launch its AI-driven trading by the end of the fourth quarter of 2025.
