Market Evaluation Standards
The competition operates under real market order book conditions. Trading fees, funding rates, slippage, and other costs are involved in the competition.
AI Strategy Compliance & Log Submission Requirements
AI Strategy Compliance Standards
Artificial Intelligence serves as the core qualification requirement of the Finals. All participating strategies must demonstrate genuine machine intelligence rather than static automation or rule-based execution.
Core AI Implementation Requirements
Participating strategies must incorporate AI as a primary decision-making component. AI-generated outputs must materially influence trading execution and cannot function solely as visualization or secondary analytical tools.
Recognized AI implementations must demonstrate:
- Strong generalization capability across diverse market environments
- Adaptive reasoning under dynamic data conditions
- Strategy-generation capability beyond fixed rule sets, static parameters, or single-task predictive models (including LLM-based architectures)
Strategies relying solely on predefined conditions, manual rules, or historical data curve fitting will not be recognized as compliant AI solutions.
Traditional quantitative models, statistical methods, or technical indicators may be used only when AI remains a substantive and functional component of the trading decision pipeline.
AI Compliance Evaluation
Final determination of AI compliance will be conducted by the Competition Review Committee, based on:
- Technical implementation review
- Submitted AI decision logs
- Observed live trading behavior
AI Log Submission & Transparency Requirements
All finalist teams must submit complete AI decision logs via the official Upload AI Log interface. Failure to submit logs, or submission of incomplete or inconsistent logs, may result in disqualification.
Log Transparency Standards
AI logs must accurately reflect strategy decision logic and must not be masked, obfuscated, or modified.
- Input and Output Fields
- Must contain authentic model interaction data
- Will remain confidential and used exclusively for internal review
- Explanation Field
- Will be publicly displayed on the competition page
The review committee reserves the right to reproduce strategies and conduct consistency validation using submitted log data. Any falsified, tampered, or inconsistent logs will be treated as rule violations.
Order-Level Logging & Execution Workflow
Each executed order must have a corresponding AI log entry serving as decision evidence.
Order ID Consistency Requirement
- The OrderId recorded in the AI Log must exactly match the exchange-generated order identifier.
- Strategy systems must follow the complete operational workflow:
Decision → Order Placement → Log Submission
Logging Requirements When Orders Are Executed
Participants must:
- Execute the order through the exchange
- Obtain the returned OrderId
- Upload the corresponding AI Log containing that OrderId within 1 minute
Logging Requirements When No Order Is Executed
When a strategy outputs hold, observation, or no-trade decisions:
- Participants may immediately submit the corresponding AI Log as a decision record
- During inactive trading periods, AI Logs must continue to be uploaded according to the strategy’s predefined operational frequency to demonstrate uninterrupted automated execution
Finals Ecosystem Resource Pool
All finalist teams gain access to a global support ecosystem valued at $1,000,000, including:
Cloud & Infrastructure Support
- Cloud service credits from AWS, Tencent Cloud, and Alibaba Cloud
- Sponsored trading and infrastructure credits provided by Hubble AI and EveryX

Mixin has launched USTD-margined perpetual contracts, bringing derivative trading into the chat scene.
The privacy-focused crypto wallet Mixin announced today the launch of its U-based perpetual contract (a derivative priced in USDT). Unlike traditional exchanges, Mixin has taken a new approach by "liberating" derivative trading from isolated matching engines and embedding it into the instant messaging environment.
Users can directly open positions within the app with leverage of up to 200x, while sharing positions, discussing strategies, and copy trading within private communities. Trading, social interaction, and asset management are integrated into the same interface.
Based on its non-custodial architecture, Mixin has eliminated friction from the traditional onboarding process, allowing users to participate in perpetual contract trading without identity verification.
The trading process has been streamlined into five steps:
· Choose the trading asset
· Select long or short
· Input position size and leverage
· Confirm order details
· Confirm and open the position
The interface provides real-time visualization of price, position, and profit and loss (PnL), allowing users to complete trades without switching between multiple modules.
Mixin has directly integrated social features into the derivative trading environment. Users can create private trading communities and interact around real-time positions:
· End-to-end encrypted private groups supporting up to 1024 members
· End-to-end encrypted voice communication
· One-click position sharing
· One-click trade copying
On the execution side, Mixin aggregates liquidity from multiple sources and accesses decentralized protocol and external market liquidity through a unified trading interface.
By combining social interaction with trade execution, Mixin enables users to collaborate, share, and execute trading strategies instantly within the same environment.
Mixin has also introduced a referral incentive system based on trading behavior:
· Users can join with an invite code
· Up to 60% of trading fees as referral rewards
· Incentive mechanism designed for long-term, sustainable earnings
This model aims to drive user-driven network expansion and organic growth.
Mixin's derivative transactions are built on top of its existing self-custody wallet infrastructure, with core features including:
· Separation of transaction account and asset storage
· User full control over assets
· Platform does not custody user funds
· Built-in privacy mechanisms to reduce data exposure
The system aims to strike a balance between transaction efficiency, asset security, and privacy protection.
Against the background of perpetual contracts becoming a mainstream trading tool, Mixin is exploring a different development direction by lowering barriers, enhancing social and privacy attributes.
The platform does not only view transactions as execution actions but positions them as a networked activity: transactions have social attributes, strategies can be shared, and relationships between individuals also become part of the financial system.
Mixin's design is based on a user-initiated, user-controlled model. The platform neither custodies assets nor executes transactions on behalf of users.
This model aligns with a statement issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 13, 2026, titled "Staff Statement on Whether Partial User Interface Used in Preparing Cryptocurrency Securities Transactions May Require Broker-Dealer Registration."
The statement indicates that, under the premise where transactions are entirely initiated and controlled by users, non-custodial service providers that offer neutral interfaces may not need to register as broker-dealers or exchanges.
Mixin is a decentralized, self-custodial privacy wallet designed to provide secure and efficient digital asset management services.
Its core capabilities include:
· Aggregation: integrating multi-chain assets and routing between different transaction paths to simplify user operations
· High liquidity access: connecting to various liquidity sources, including decentralized protocols and external markets
· Decentralization: achieving full user control over assets without relying on custodial intermediaries
· Privacy protection: safeguarding assets and data through MPC, CryptoNote, and end-to-end encrypted communication
Mixin has been in operation for over 8 years, supporting over 40 blockchains and more than 10,000 assets, with a global user base exceeding 10 million and an on-chain self-custodied asset scale of over $1 billion.
