“We raised $22M — to reinvent the crypto trading frontend in the form of an agentic browser.”
A while back at the Silicon Valley 101 conference in San Jose, I shared our insights on agents and crypto trading, envisioning the next-gen agentic trading frontend. After the talk, the crowd was packed—I couldn't move:
"What are the pain points in crypto trading right now?"
"Why an agentic browser?"
"Why on-chain trading?"
Here are some of my thoughts:

For the last 6 months, we’ve prototyped Donut, with 100,000+ visionaries on the waitlist to co-create the interface for the financial internet.
Today, we're excited to announce that We raised $22M to build the world's first agentic crypto browser for trading.
Money doesn’t sleep. Keep it growing.

Crypto trading today feels more like an arena for institutions and pros. Retail traders are often at a disadvantage: info overload, delayed executions, emotional decisions, and orders getting front-run by market makers. Even staring at screens 18 hours a day doesn't cover 24/7.
To flip the script, we need to automate the "discovery → decision → execution" loop, with every step verifiable and traceable.

Many still stick to centralized exchanges, but on-chain opportunities aren't just real—they're exploding. Just look at the numbers: On-chain spot daily volume exceeds $20B, and on-chain perps have hit trillions this year, several times higher than at the start.
The on-chain world is more complex—more steps, strategies, and fragmented info—but that's exactly why AI can deliver outsized efficiency gains, directly impacting results.

That's why we're building an agentic browser. The browser is already your single entry point for info and orders; unifying research and execution turns "spotting opportunities" into seamless "matched trades."
LLM advancements make extracting signals from messy data feasible; automated code gen and quant modeling lower the bar for strategy dev and iteration. Breakthroughs in Donut for data scraping, unstructured understanding, and multi-dimensional analysis ensure stable signal outputs on the research side, then land them via strategy routing, risk control, and timing on execution.

Connected with top AI practitioners, scholars, and hedge funds in Silicon Valley. Turns out many traditional hedge funds are building internal trading agents too—they're just more closed-off.
Our approach: Bring this full stack on-chain, into the browser, making speed, discipline, and verifiability weapons every trader can wield.
(5/5)
The potential of AI has yet to be fully unleashed.
The intelligence behind large models has not yet been transformed into a capability that everyone can use in their daily lives.
Everyone deserves an AI quantitative analyst who truly understands them, always by their side.
Evolving from multiple fragmented, passive interfaces into a proactive, seamlessly connected, and truly understanding intelligent companion.
