Walt lets AI agents trade perpetual futures through Mira, ChatGPT and Claude

The Telegram-based app formerly known as Wallet confines agents to a dedicated account, with order execution switched off until users enable it

Walt, the Telegram-based app formerly known as Wallet in Telegram, now lets users connect AI agents including Mira, OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Anthropic’s Claude to trade perpetual futures on their behalf, Unchained reported on October 20.

Connected agents can pull live prices and market news, review open positions and liquidation risk, open and close long and short positions, place take-profit and stop-loss orders and run user-set rules such as dollar-cost averaging, according to The Defiant.

Execution off by default in a ring-fenced account

Agents trade only from a dedicated account that users choose to fund, and they cannot withdraw or transfer money out of it. Order execution is disabled by default, and users set instructions and limits, can monitor every action and can disconnect an agent at any time, Tokenpost reported. Walt has not disclosed how the agents connect to accounts or whether agent trades face separate leverage caps.

Walt’s perpetuals service, launched in April through decentralized exchange Lighter, offers more than 50 markets with leverage of up to 50x. Mira is built by The Open Platform, which also develops Walt.

Andrew Rogozov, founder and CEO of Walt and The Open Platform, said trading apps have long relied on terminals, charts and order tickets that users must learn to operate. 

The app was renamed Walt on September 28, when Telegram also introduced a separate noncustodial service, Gram Wallet. Robinhood unveiled its own AI trading agents last month, with manual approval of each trade switched on by default.
