Onchain analytics provider Nansen has launched an AI-powered integrated trading solution within its web and mobile applications, initially rolling out on Solana and Base.
The launch represents a strategic expansion for a firm built on a proprietary dataset of more than 500 million labeled wallet addresses. Nansen said the solution integrates analysis and execution within a single interface, addressing a traditionally fragmented workflow for onchain traders.
“This is the most significant product launch in Nansen’s history,” Alex Svanevik, co-founder and CEO of Nansen, said in a statement shared with The Block. “For years, Nansen has been the best in the world at surfacing high-quality signals for onchain investors. That data foundation is what made Nansen AI, our mobile app, possible. Now, we’re closing the loop by enabling users to execute trades directly in our product, both through an AI-native conversational mobile UX and a trading terminal on the web.”
How the AI agent executes trades
The Nansen AI agent enables what the company describes as “vibe trading,” where users can execute trades by conversing with the mobile app or using a web terminal. The agent provides data-backed suggestions but requires explicit user approval for each transaction. It operates under user-defined rules, and does not take custody of funds, according to the statement.
Nansen partnered with liquidity aggregator Jupiter for swaps on Solana and OKX DEX for swaps on Base, while cross-chain routing is handled by LI.FI, it said. All transactions are processed through the embedded Nansen Wallet, which uses infrastructure from Privy to provide a self-custodied account, the firm added.
Trading functionality is available immediately to eligible users. However, Nansen confirmed that the service is restricted in several jurisdictions, including Singapore, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and Russia.
The launch coincides with rapid growth in crypto AI agents, and industry infrastructure has developed in parallel. Coinbase unveiled a tool in October 2025 allowing AI models like Claude and Gemini to access crypto wallets, and the Coinbase-incubated x402 payments protocol built for AI agents rolled out its V2 upgrade last December.
At the same time, risks tied to autonomous agents have drawn scrutiny. According to previous reporting from The Block, AI research firm Anthropic warned that automated agents pose an immediate threat to smart contract security. In a mock environment using models, including Claude 4.5 and GPT-5, AI agents successfully exploited 207 of 405 contracts deployed between 2020 and 2025, resulting in the theft of $550 million in simulated revenue.
