Ranger Protocol, a Solana-based crypto derivatives exchange, has secured $1.9 million in funding to develop AI-powered trading strategies. The protocol aggregates crypto perpetual contracts (perps) from various sources, offering traders access to deeper liquidity. With this new investment, Ranger plans to introduce AI agents that will execute programmatic trading strategies combined with social media and data insights.
Founders of the startup say the two technologies are on a "collision course."The builders of Solana -based crypto derivatives exchange Ranger Protocol are jumping on the AI train, too, after raising $1.9 million from venture investors.
The protocol is now planning to add new product lines that give customers access to AI-assisted trading strategies, co-founder Coby Lim told CoinDesk. A press release described vaults managed by AI agents who mix programmatic trading strategies with social media and data insights. "AI and DeFi are on a collision course," co-founder Fathur Rahman said. "Automation, predictive modeling, and intelligent execution will redefine trading. AI optimizes strategy, DeFi provides transparency, and together they unlock a new frontier of efficiency."In the interim, Ranger's rangers are working on pulling crypto perps from two more protocols, Adrena and Drift, to add to their current base of contracts from Jupiter and Flash.
