Gemini is looking to make it easier for users to let AI guide their trades. On Monday, the crypto exchange rolled out Agentic Trading, which lets users connect AI models like Claude and ChatGPT to their trading accounts.
This will make it easier for AI to autonomously monitor markets, place trades, and even execute trades and manage risk based on predefined trading strategies, according to an announcement shared with The Block.
Gemini (GEMI) referred to the feature as “the first agentic trading tool to be available directly through a regulated US-based exchange.”
“We believe we’re at the beginning of a fundamental shift in how people interact with financial markets,” Gemini wrote. “Agentic trading isn’t just a feature. It’s a new paradigm where AI handles the execution, patterns, and discipline, while you focus on strategy and goals.”
The tool operates through the MCP open standard initially developed by AI studio Anthropic, which connects AI agents to external tools and APIs. Gemini said it has integrated its full trading API with MCP.
The move fits into the broader “agentic AI” trend that is taking root in and outside of the crypto sector, where users are increasingly providing AI bots access to digital services.
Coinbase, for instance, has incubated the x402 protocol, an open payments standard now shepherded under the Linux Foundation, that provides AI bots access to crypto wallets and an entire app store of tools and services. Tempo is also developing the Machine Payments Protocol, a similar payment standard for machine-to-machine payments.
Both x402 and MPP make use of the MCP standard Gemini’s Agentic Trading taps, though they are not specifically focused on executing trades on an exchange.
Agentic Trading also features a set of pre-built modular functions called Trading Skills. An AI can call functions like Find the Spread, to query the bid-ask spread for any trading pair, or Retrieve Candles, to access historical data to power “pattern recognition and backtesting.” Gemini said it plans to introduce more functions.
Gemini, which went public late last year, recently shook up its C-suite with the departures of its CFO, COO, and CLO amid rising corporate expenses. Mizuho cut its price target for GEMI, citing weak trading activity, despite growth in its crypto card offerings.
GEMI shares are trading at $4.45 at publication time, according to The Block’s data. The stock has traded below $4 in recent weeks, its lowest price since its Sept. 12 debut at $28.
In March, the Winklevoss twins transferred $130 million in bitcoin to Gemini hot wallets.
