Overview

Cortex Protocol is a universal platform that enables on-chain AI agents to interact with blockchain networks. The protocol consists of two core components: The Cortex Trading Agent and The Cortex Agent Platform. Cortex's vision is to democratize intelligence and execution, across all blockchain networks.

1. The Cortex Trading Agent

A generalized trading agent that allows users to execute crypto transactions through natural language prompts. Users prompt their desired end state and the agent executes on it, the easiest way to use and interact with crypto. Prompt to trade.

Automated Intelligence

Access to any data source including on-chain, X, Arkham, protocol docs, Coingecko, DexScreener, etc. Making it the most powerful analyst and researcher that can also execute based on specific signals instantly.

Automated Execution

Users can give programmatic instructions to the agent to execute trades based on any signal. Example: "Buy a basket of the top 10 AI coins on base and sell any coin that doubles in price". The agent is only bound by imagination and prompts that are given.

2. The Cortex Agent Platform

Cortex's agent platform allows developers to permissionlessly deploy agents with on-chain capabilities. Each agent is built with its own data sources, on-chain constraints and objective function. Deploying new primitives, protocols and chains through an AI agent will be easier than building traditional front ends.

Some early task-specific agents:

Yield Farming Agent:

Autonomously takes unfarmed stables and farms the highest yielding pools between protocols the user approves. Suggests new high yielding pools learning from the users risk tolerance. Auto-compounds yield and rebalances between different pools across different chains depending on which has the highest yield.

Ethena agent:

Autonomously rebalances between different pools, optimising yield and sats based on the user's input of estimated sat valuation.

Alpha generator:

Ingests on-chain data, Arkham, Nascent, Kaito and other data sources, allowing users to create autonomous bots to trade based on signals (mindshare, holder movements, tweet mentions, etc).


The protocol is powered by the $CX token.

With Cortex Protocol, AI agents are the primary method for executing smart contracts, creating a decentralized economy where specialized agents can work together to perform complex financial operations and any type of interactions.
