The increasing adoption of agentic AI in the crypto sector is transforming the way trades are executed. According to a recent Gartner study, 40% of industries will adopt agentic AI by the end of 2026, with the crypto sector leading the charge. In fact, 58% of market trading volume is already attributed to AI-powered trading bots.
However, most exchanges lack the infrastructure and regulatory clarity to handle these autonomous agents effectively. They require reliable APIs, institutional-grade security, and well-documented documentation to operate seamlessly.
VALR, an African-based exchange, has taken a pioneering approach in developing its AI Service suite. This platform is designed from the ground up to support both human users and agentic AI, providing clients with the Agent Skills Standard framework.
