We are thrilled to announce that Horizon Protocol is partnering with MODE by onboarding an AI-powered decentralized perpetual future into MODE’s ecosystem.

AI and DeFi are among the most transformative technologies today, and their convergence holds the potential to unlock new opportunities across the financial landscape. MODE, as a leading Layer 2 player, is at the cutting edge of merging AI with DeFi to reshape the future of decentralized finance.

Intro to MODE:

Mode is at the forefront of a transformative shift in decentralized finance (DeFi), evolving into the realm of AiFi — a novel, AI-powered financial ecosystem. At its core, AiFi represents a new wave of DeFi automation, where AI agents interact seamlessly on-chain, executing tasks such as MEV searching, arbitrage, and smart contract auditing. This enables the creation of scalable, efficient, and non-custodial financial services that operate beyond human constraints.

MODE’s vision is to extend DeFi’s boundaries with AI-to-AI (AI2AI) interactions, where intelligent agents perform complex financial tasks autonomously. This shift opens new opportunities, allowing more scalable DeFi systems that enhance transaction throughput, precision, and security. As AI agents evolve, MODE will not only optimize yields and liquidity but will also autonomously participate in and evolve on-chain economies.

MODE is powered by the OP Stack, in collaboration with Optimism. MODE aims to contribute to growing Optimism’s Superchain ecosystem as the main DeFi hub.

Horizon Protocol’s Expansion to MODE

Horizon Protocol’s expansion to MODE marks an exciting step in our journey to become a versatile, multi-chain liquidity system for All-Weather Traders. Through this partnership, we are thrilled to integrate our AI-powered decentralized perpetual futures into MODE’s ecosystem, actively contributing to the advancement of the AiFi era.

Horizon Protocol is pioneering the industry’s first true AI-driven trading experience, currently live on Arbitrum Sepolia testnet with exclusive strategies and insights for decentralized perpetual futures. This offering is designed to enhance trading efficiency and profitability in preparation for integration on MODE’s Mainnet.

Our platform offers the most advanced institutional-grade trading signals and market indicators, powered by AI through deep learning. These cutting-edge technologies are now integrated into Horizon Protocol’s Perpetual Futures testnet, allowing traders to leverage advanced AI strategies for improved profitability and efficiency. In the Phase One testnet launch, three AI-enabled trading signals and indicators are available: ViperAI, Minima/Maxima, and WaveML. ViperAI is a flagship full trading strategy; Minima/Maxima, an AI-driven scalping tool; and WaveML, designed for enhanced directional trading, are all accessible within Horizon Protocol’s Perpetual Futures platform across multiple markets.

In addition, Horizon Protocol is integrating an intent-based liquidity layer to seamlessly bridge liquidity from CEXs to the blockchain without compromising on security. This innovative architecture provides deep liquidity and capital efficiency, merging the liquidity advantages of CEXs with the security of DEXs. By “bridging” on-chain liquidity, we unlock new, cost-effective use cases and applications, driving further growth in decentralized finance.

The Future of DeFi

In partnering with MODE, Horizon Protocol is paving the way for a groundbreaking transformation in decentralized finance. This collaboration not only marks Horizon Protocol’s commitment to innovation but also signifies our dedication to delivering an unparalleled trading experience that harnesses the power of AI and the efficiency of Layer 2 solutions. By integrating with MODE’s ecosystem, we are positioned to bring institutional-grade AI strategies, robust liquidity solutions, and secure, efficient trading tools to the DeFi landscape.

As we continue to expand and refine our offerings, we look forward to empowering traders with the tools they need for success in an era where AI and DeFi converge. Together with MODE, Horizon Protocol is at the beginning of ushering in a future where financial autonomy, transparency, and performance are redefined. Join us in shaping this next wave of decentralized finance.
