Executive Summary
Project Overview
Dexifund is a next-generation DeFintech (Decentralised Financial Technology) company and ecosystem leveraging the power of artificially intelligent automations, transparent flywheel tokenomics a, and a seed-project incubator within our company umbrella. Our aim is to empower both traditional (Web2) and decentralized (Web3) investors to seamlessly access, manage, foster and gain exposure to DeF-AI (DeFi + AI) innovations. Our aim is to frontier transparent tokenomics using our native token $DEXI, and implementation of advanced intelligent automations across our core business functions, We place a key focus on utilisation of novel emerging artificial intelligence (AI), and recursive b self-reinforcing Agentic-AI c throughout our business ops and financial ops functions. The uniqe value proposition of Dexifund and first-to-market positioning offers investors and innovators an unique entry point to both engage and gain exposure to new digital assets, DeFi, innovative blockchain technology, and what we have newly coined Def-AI—the intersection of AI and decentralized finance on the blockchain.
The Rise of Def-AI
Def-AI represents the intersection of AI and decentralized finance on the blockchain.[1] For Dexifund, it will provide both the framework and power of executive functions for the rapid discovery of advantageous token pair tradingd)
[2] and new project alpha launches. Additionally, It will enable “near-real-time” (<5000ms) and “true real-time” (<1000ms) on-chain risk assessmente[3], smart trade execution, and autonomous decision-making f powered by Agentic AI. We are adopting a seed-to-blossom fully integrated system, where investors, speculators and fund participants gain access to professional-grade active fund management, innovative DeFi strategies, and exposure to being a seed-incubator of next-wave novel AI projects. Our entire business structure is underpinned by community-centred, transparent and sustainable internal operations economic flywheels & A self-reinforcing short-term-deflationary g, long-term-utility value signalling tokenomic model[4] , principled from best practice learnings of over 15 years of historical smart-contract cryptocurrency token design[5] [6] , peer-reviewed empirical data studies[7] , and behavioural tokenomic studies.[8] [9]
Problem Statement
With the revolutionary inception of the Bitcoin Protocol in 2008 [10] followed by what many agree was the birth of Decentalised Finance in 2015 with Ethereum Network there have been remarkable accumulated cash inflows and sustained growth YoY, with De-Fi projects Total Value Locked (TVL) surpassing $140 billion[11] alone at its peak in 2024. This surge demonstrates DeFi’s and Def-AI’s transformative potential for traditional financial services. Yet despite having clear real-life uses cases particularly around transparency, governance, insert more etc. its full integration has been hindered amongst society due to significant gaps, barriers and challenges still existing with:
- Adoption by Traditional Financial / WEB2 Investors: Despite steady inflows of cash, liquidity, investors, and speculators into the De-Fi space, the reality of true mass-adoption is still far from being achieved when compared to Global Financial Assets Under Management h. [12] [13] There are a number of reasons why this is the case: A clear lack of educational intitiatves exists within traditional finance circles at both an executive and public level explaining the fundamental benefits of De-Fii [14] . People are completely unaware or do not understand this technology yet (deomgraphic constraints – Age, Education, Gender) and those that have heard about it do not understand cryptocurrency or blockchain technology, despite awareness of their use-cases and potential benefits in society[15] , and are further deterred by the steep technical learning curve, security concerns based on high-profile smart-contract exploit hacks[16] , Poor UX, and the unpredictable volatility of De-Fi Cryptocurrency Projects & their tokens.[17] [18]
- Lack of Streamlined AI Integration: While some DeFi platforms have already integrated AI solutions for instance, in 2022, Aave partnered with Gauntlet as an AI-powered risk management platform [19] Additionally Uniswap employing machine learning to prevent front-running user token swaps[20] and finally, yearn.finance uses AI for identification of on-chain token yield optimisation. [21] However, several shortcomings remain as they ACT? relatively linear in function and accessory in design, absent of full-stack integration into the framework of the original token model, and largely inaccessible to the public, limiting the broader adoption of DeFi and AI as potential synergies. Talk about how some protocols / coins are several years old now based on tokenomic models that are largely outdated, inherent nature of smart contracts and blockchain technology make many of these companies unable to mould/ adapt to new ai /agi / blockchain

- Implementing Intelligent Automations powered by Agentic A:I Showcasing on a YouTube Livestream, January 2025, OpenAI’s Sam Altman introduced the world to “Operator” their first-release research product-model autonomous agentic AI. While still being in what was classed as research preview mode, the nature of this release signifies much broader shifts within the Tech Industry as Agentic AI is being synthesised and implemented in our society at an accelerated rate. It’s clear to see, drawing some speculative associations from the theoretical physics of black holes that we have gone beyond the “event horizon” and are accelerating toward the singularity. While we are not at the point of “full deployment” of AI Agents, over the coming months and years, our belief is that the companies who have the ability to vertically integrate the technical architecture of Agentic AI systems into their core business operations, product offerings, and tokenomic model at inception will frontier this new technological golden age. We are already beginning to see the launch of alpha/beta versions of these agents worldwide, not just limited to the USA, and has started to create a highly competitive race to release smarter, improved, models. The nature of trickle-down economics means that there will be companies racing to rapidly package and productize their agents for public and commercial use, inferring much of the training and deep learning costs themselves). A Simplified Visual Workflow of Dexifunds technical architecture jon-chain / off-chain can
- Lack of Self-Reinforcing Tokenomic, Operations & Utility Flywheels: Despite DeFi’s rapid advancements, many tokenised projects still struggle to establish a self-reinforcing flywheel ecosystem that benefits users through long-term value creation, rather than relying on purely speculative trading activity, and self-imposed propping up of trading liquidity, battling delcining volume with what can be viewed as aribitrary company updates to prop the system up. Dexifund aims to combat this through utilitising daily buyback-and-burns of our native $DEXI Token (accelerated in early life-cycle Years 1-4), followed by a transition to a utility governance token with revenue share staking, facilitated with minimal yearly token inflation which will actually benefit protocol liquidity (Implemented in mid life-cycle Years 4-6). Additionally Dexifund’s treasury will fund the expansion of novel active investment products and revenue-generating assets for the fund and it’s participants. The 1% Buy/Sell Tax is used to fund liquidity across DEXes, enable rapid deployment of funds in active/passive trading strategies and facilitate sustained Buybacks & Burns , which is used to finance ecosystem benefits like prospective dividends and future staking incentives in addition to portfolio investments in DeFi and AI projects. Furthermore, emerging project ventures brought through our DeF-AI Project Incubator are given native $DEXI tokens by the Dexifund Protocol, Funds are locked under a vested smart contract which unlocks at a vested schedule to fuel the incubated projects operations, growth and innovation, The direct benefit of this for Dexifund is acting as a core contributor to potentially ground-breaking technology developments, and as accessrory benefits encourages the project partcicipant to engage with the Dexifund ecosystem, increasing trading volume, and potential discovery of new mutually beneficial synergies. While a locked-token release schedule and eventual DAO governance maintain transparency and a collaborative ownership model, a 3.5% management fee on the total assets under management guarantees that the core team is motivated to grow the fund.

- Bridging Traditional Financial Applications into the DeF-AI Ecosystem: Traditional Finance (TradFi) encompasses a wide breadth and scope of finanical insitrutments, from equities and bonds to securities and complex derivatives, serving as the backbone of global markets over the last XXX years. Recent advancements in Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) have revolutionised how financial institutions operate, unlocking automation of their processes, enhanced decision-making, and greatly improving risk mitigation strategies (page 6 josephones paper reference). As an example, Artificicially Intelligent -powered trading algorithms can now parse millions of data points in near-real-time, adapting to continously changing market dynamics and identifying patterns within market data to make rapid trading decisions. Similarly, models built on ML (find reference) can analyze histoirical data, identify risks and even predict market crashes, with similar applications in fraud detection, and optimising of portfolio allocations (Deloitte 2023, find that reference). However, these innovations remain largely siloed within TradFi, highly confidential in nature and inaccesible to the broader public due to coporate interest mis-alingment, regulatory complexity or instititional complexity (It’s a big club and you ain’t in it )
- Limited Transparency, Accountability and Decentralisation in Traditional Finance: Talk about how corrupt traditional finance is, talk about lack of accountabuility when things go wrong, talk about the divergence from interersted of its users to interests of the funds coffers. Talk about the risk of centralisation, talk about swaying of public perception, talk about gaps in the market for a truly innovative investor grade fintech company / fund, who’s actions are immutable on the blockchain
- Establishing Grassroots DeFi Projects – They often struggle with adequate funding, ongoing liquidity[13] , and mainstream visibility compared to larger stable coins.[14]
- Promising synergies

As a result, investors miss out on the full potential of DeFi, while AI-based DeFi startups frequently lack the support and capital needed to thrive.
Solution
Rather than focusing on a single use-case (e.g., token risk parameters, anti-front-running trades, sniping token launches or yield optimization), Dexifund integrates DeF-AI throughout the investment lifecycle—from intelligent fund aggregation and auomated active portfolio management to transparent governance and early-stage project incubation. By offering a user-friendly on-ramp and a multi-layered AI ecosystem, Dexifund ensures that both institutional and retail participants can capitalize on the full spectrum of Def-AI potential without navigating opaque “black-box” models or convoluted protocols.
Dexifund addresses these challenges by providing:

- Offering an actively managed mix of stable assets, high-potential crypto tokens, and AI-driven strategies.
- Transparent Tokenomics
- The native $DEXI token utilizes buyback-and-burn mechanics, staking rewards (Start Year 4), and consistent tax allocations to fuel treasury war chest creates a deflationary yet sustainable model.
- On-chain governance features promote community-driven decisions and ensure accountability.
- Incubation & Growth for Def-AI Projects
- Dexifund’s incubator program provides grants, technical resources, and support for promising AI/DeFi startups.
- This fosters a virtuous cycle: as incubated projects succeed, token value and ecosystem utility grow—benefiting both investors and entrepreneurs.
- Bridging Web2 and Web3
- Streamlined onboarding ensures that traditional finance participants can invest in DeFi products without wrestling with complex blockchain interfaces or security pitfalls.
- Partnerships with reputable custody solutions and fiat gateways to boost investor confidence and provide an accessible gateway into crypto.

Our Vision for the Future of Finance
Our belief is that intelligent automations (IA) powered by artificial intelligence (AI) will power a wide breadth and majority of functions and utilities in a human’s life, from simple domestic jobs, quality of life improvements all the way through advanced prediction models, health tech (get references) (weather) etc. Much of these systems have already been developed and are continually being refined, re-iterated and improved. Much like in our domestics lives, Artificial Intelliegence has already started to be integrated dominate financial regression models, algorithms and quantitative analysis. This will continue to develop and improve an (logarithmatically increasing levels)
Where the next technological leap will be Agentic AI, Artificial General Intelligence followed by Artificial Super Intelligence, a wide breadth of data exists on prediction of these key dates (insert refs on dates / predictions of AGI / ASI) where autonomous agents will be able to be designed, created, trained and carry out tasks (find better phrasing)
As transparency, automation, and efficiency continue to devbelop the natural progression into Blockchain Technology governed by Agentic AI, overseen by Decentralised Autonomous Organisations is the next natural move.
Bridging Traditional Financial Products to Decentralised Finance
Dexifunds business, financial, and tokenomic operations are designed to create a self-reinforcing cycle of growth where the success of the fund benefits all participants in the ecosystem—investors, token holders, and the fund itself.
Say something about at it’s core Dexifund is much more than an Intelligently Automated Aggregator of Funds, at its core we aim to bring revolutionary technology across our business & financial operations arms.
Additionally, Dexifund has several accessory business functions including go-to-market products, investment strategies, and planned investment streams, all built on top of an economy of growth-focused, stable, deflationary tokenomics.

How Does (IA) and (AI) Apply to Dexifund
Dexifund believes that the next Trillion dollar companies will be formed utilising Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain Technology, Machine Learning, and Autonomous Agentic AI. As a regular investor, it is next to impossible to both identify emerging projects that could technologically distruptive / innovative in the space while also doing due diligence on if it’s a project worth investing in. Hence, why Dexifund was created.
Dexifund acts as both an Artificially Intelligent powered aggregator of funds identifying emerging projects and technologies at the intersection of Blockchain, Fintech, and AI providing expsoure to it’s token holders and investors additionally we our key focus is on emerging Innovative AI technologies expressed through the blockchain.
As AGentic AI our aim is rapidly train, deploy and infer agentic AI within both our business operations, financial operations, active trading, predictive analysis. We aim to be the first mover in offering tokenized exposure to De-Fi portfolios providing our clients, investors, and tokenholders with access to professionally managed DeFi strategies all built and powered through a transparent and community governed token
The Rise of Cryptocurrency Exchange Traded Funds & Index Funds
In 2024, we saw the rise of cryptocurrency ETF’s in the mainstream financial world where Bitcoin and Ethereum made history as the first Cryptocurrency ETF Exchange Traded Fund Products in History. But really ETF’s have existed for close to (100 years?)
What are ETF’s / Index Funds
Insert some useful info here on benefits of ETF’s some research on bitcoin etf, ethereum etf, price discovery stability. Building of trust in WEB3, bridging gaos between traditional finance investors and now emerging technologies in WEB3 space. they dont have time to review whitepapers, audit smart contracts, nor do they care, but they do want exposure.
Establishing Innovation with Decentralised Finance Exchange Traded Funds
The current Services and structure are rife with corruption deceived and all the ways of thinking decentralised finance aims to change those things and put the power of the few back into the power of the many unfortunately crypto and blockchain adoption has been hindered by lack of understanding confusion FUD, And gaps in intelligence from standard investors as such mass adoption is taking longer than usual [insert reference to adoption of web 3 /DEFI projects. As such there is a really use case for stability transparency and improving the unboarding and user experience and education for potential investors to gain exposure to defy and defy AI projects dexIFUND aims to bridge thy gap

- Offer a clear, investor-friendly definition of agentic AI and how it differs from standard AI or machine learning.
- Provide tangible use cases: e.g., “Imagine an AI agent that can autonomously scout new protocols, perform test trades with small amounts, report the ROI data back to Dexifund, and then propose further allocations without human intervention.”
b. Timeline & Roadmap
- Outline how Dexifund envisions integrating agentic AI to handle tasks that range from real-time risk management to automated KYC checks and user onboarding.
- Show the phased approach: start with supervised AI strategies, move into partially autonomous portfolio management, and eventually adopt fully agentic systems once the technology and regulation mature.
8. Regulatory Preparedness & Long-Term Sustainability
a. Future-Proofing
- Address how Dexifund may adapt if regulators impose specific guidelines on AI-based investment advisors or yield-farming practices.
- Discuss possible compliance strategies (e.g., obtaining necessary licenses in relevant jurisdictions).
b. ESG & Impact Investing
- If applicable, consider highlighting ethical and sustainability angles (e.g., supporting blockchains moving to proof-of-stake, investing in AI that solves climate or social issues).
- This can broaden Dexifund’s appeal to institutional or philanthropic investors who prioritize responsible investing.
9. Bringing It All Together
- Vision Statement: Tie the above points into a cohesive narrative about the future of finance, how AI and blockchain are converging, and why Dexifund is strategically placed to capitalize on this convergence.
- Practical Value: Show a clear path for everyday and institutional investors to access sophisticated AI-driven strategies without the typical friction and technical complexity.
- Growth & Scalability: Reinforce how Dexifund’s model can adapt to new markets, new forms of digital assets, and evolving regulatory landscapes, making it an evergreen platform rather than a short-term trend.
Final Thoughts
By diving into these topics, you’ll show how Dexifund goes beyond a typical DeFi aggregator and positions itself as an integral player at the nexus of AI, DeFi, and next-generation fintech. Balancing the visionary (agentic AI, large-scale DeFi adoption, trillion-dollar AI companies) with the practical (risk management, transparency, user education) will help potential investors and partners fully grasp the breadth and depth of Dexifund’s roadmap.

Tokenomics
Total Supply: 1 billion (1B).
- Initial Distribution
- Public Sale / TGE (e.g. 40–50%): Used to raise initial capital for the AI agent’s trading treasury. The portion raised here goes into a smart contract–based treasury.
- Treasury / Operations (e.g. 20–30%): Used to fund ongoing operational expenses, marketing, development, audits, and other overhead. Also ensures liquidity support, especially if you anticipate liquidity pools on decentralized exchanges.
- Team & Advisors (e.g. 10–15%): Vested over a multi-year period to align long-term interests, e.g. 2–3 years with monthly or quarterly cliff unlocks.
- Ecosystem Incentives (e.g. 10–15%): Rewards for staking, liquidity mining, or partnerships to drive ecosystem adoption.
Core Mechanisms
A. Staking Rewards / Yield
Staking Pools: Token holders can stake AI Agent Tokens into a staking contract.
Reward Sourcing: Rewards could come from trading profits generated by the AI agent’s treasury. A share of the profits is allocated to the staking rewards pool. This way, as the AI agent trades successfully, stakers receive additional tokens or stablecoins, creating an immediate utility for holding (and locking) tokens.
Advantages
Reduces circulating supply.
Creates ongoing demand from those seeking passive yield.
Directly ties the token’s success to the AI agent’s performance.
B. Buybacks & Burns
Mechanism: A portion (e.g. 20–30%) of the AI agent’s trading profits, or a percentage of fees accrued, is used to buy back tokens from the open market and potentially burn them.
Impact: Buybacks can support price stability and send a strong signal to the market. Burns reduce circulating supply, making the token more scarce over time.
Advantages
Aligns the token’s price with the AI agent’s success.
Increases scarcity, supporting long-term price growth.
C. Revenue Sharing or Dividend Model
Mechanism: Another portion of the AI agent’s trading profits can be distributed directly to token holders in stablecoins (like USDC) or in the native token.
Implementation:
A smart contract tallies each holder’s proportional share.
Periodic (e.g. weekly, monthly) snapshots track wallet balances.
Rewards are then distributed accordingly.
Advantages
Holders receive tangible returns (e.g. stablecoins) without selling the token.
Encourages a “buy and hold” mentality, reducing sell pressure.
Treasury Structure & Trading
A. Main Trading Treasury
- Composition: Mostly stablecoins initially (e.g. USDC, DAI) with a portion in blue-chip cryptocurrencies (e.g. ETH) to capture overall market movement.
- AI Agent Trading: Focus on new or promising AI-related tokens. The AI could run quantitative strategies, fundamental analyses, or sentiment-based algorithms to find alpha.
B. Governance / Investment Proposals
If the community or team wants a more decentralized approach, you could implement:
- DAO Governance: Token holders can vote on investment strategies or which new AI tokens to target.
- AI + Human Collaboration: Combine the agent’s predictions with DAO votes to mitigate “black box” risk and increase transparency.
C. Performance and Transparency
- On-Chain Tracking: Since this is DeFi, use smart contracts that track the agent’s trades in real time, or release daily/weekly performance reports.
- Audits: To build trust, the smart contract logic around treasury management and profit distribution should be audited by reputable firms.
4. Fee Structures for Long-Term Sustainability
A. Performance Fee
- Mechanism: The AI agent charges a small performance fee on profitable trades (e.g. 10–20%). This fee goes partly to operations and partly back to token holders via buybacks, burns, or direct revenue sharing.
B. Management Fee
- Mechanism: A small annual or monthly fee on the total treasury (e.g. 1–2%) to cover fixed costs.
- Rationale: Helps ensure sustainability and that the team can keep developing the protocol even during bear markets.
5. Potential Token Utility & Use-Cases
- Staking for Governance: Access the “governance” layer (right to propose/vote on key AI agent parameters, risk tolerance, new tokens to trade, etc.).
- Priority Access: If the AI agent has privileged access to new token launches (e.g. IDOs/IEOs), AI Agent Token stakers might receive early or discounted allocations.
- Ecosystem Benefits: Potential for the token to be integrated with other DeFi protocols for lending, collateral, or yield farming, thus broadening utility.
6. Putting It All Together
- Raise Capital through a well-executed token launch where part of the supply is sold to the public, and these proceeds form the treasury for the AI agent.
- Incentivize Holding via revenue sharing (in stablecoins or the native token), buyback-and-burn mechanisms, and staking with yield from trading profits.
- Ensure Transparency & Trust by providing real-time or frequent reporting on the AI agent’s trading performance and the health of the treasury.
- Long-Term Roadmap that positions the token at the center of a broader AI-crypto ecosystem—e.g., partnerships with other AI-powered DeFi protocols, or cross-chain expansions.
7. Considerations & Risks
- Regulatory Compliance: Sharing profits or dividends can be viewed as a security in some jurisdictions—consult legal experts early.
AI Black Box: Investors might be skeptical if they don’t understand the AI’s trading logic. A combination of performance data, partial open-sourcing, or a governance layer can mitigate this.
Market Risk: AI-driven trading strategies aren’t failproof. Be transparent about risk management (stop-loss mechanisms, portfolio hedging, etc.).
Liquidity & Volatility: High APYs or revenue sharing might cause swings in the token’s price. Designs that smooth out distributions (e.g. vesting or time-based claims) can help.
Summary
Yes, you can absolutely design a tokenomic model that both:Incentivizes Investment: Investors contribute capital to the fund (increasing the AI agent’s treasury).
Offers Revenue Sharing: Distributes a portion of trading profits back to holders, thereby adding real utility and reasons to hold.
The key is balancing simplicity (so people actually understand your mechanics) with robust features (so there’s real utility, governance, and value accrual for token holders). If well executed, the combination of staking rewards, buyback-and-burn, and revenue sharing can form a powerful “flywheel effect” that grows your treasury and supports token demand over time.
7. Considerations & Risks
1. Roadmap & Phases
Phase 1: Foundation & Launch
Smart Contract Development
- Build or fork audited smart contracts that manage the treasury, handle yield farming, and distribute rewards.
- Integrate basic AI/quant algorithms to allocate capital among stablecoins, top DeFi tokens, and new AI-agent tokens.
Initial Fundraising (TGE / IDO / IEO)
- Conduct Token Generation Event (TGE) to raise initial capital.
- Use a portion of proceeds (e.g. 70% of treasury) for AI-driven token trading and 30% for yield farming.
Token Listing & Liquidity
- List your token on at least one DEX and, if possible, a centralized exchange for liquidity.
- Incentivize liquidity providers (LPs) via liquidity mining programs.
Phase 2: Yield Farming & Portfolio Automation
Automated Yield Aggregation
- Deploy or partner with yield aggregator protocols to manage the 30% yield farming portion.
- Ensure auto-compounding strategies where possible to maximize returns.
Portfolio Rebalancing
- Implement an on-chain or partially off-chain AI system that periodically assesses market conditions and adjusts the fund’s allocations among:
- AI agent tokens or new DeFi tokens the AI identifies
- Established DeFi “blue chips” (ETH, stablecoins, etc.)
- Yield farming positions
- Rebalance to maintain risk tolerances (e.g., 70% trading, 30% yield) and optimize yield vs. growth.
- Implement an on-chain or partially off-chain AI system that periodically assesses market conditions and adjusts the fund’s allocations among:
Security & Audits
- Undergo at least one reputable smart contract audit (e.g., CertiK, OpenZeppelin, ConsenSys Diligence).
- Publish transparent yield and performance reports.
Phase 3: Governance & Expansion
DAO / Governance Integration
- Introduce governance capabilities so token holders can vote on proposals (e.g., adding new yield pools, changing AI parameters, adjusting the 70:30 ratio if needed).
- Gradually decentralize decision-making to foster community trust and growth.
Cross-Chain Deployment
- Expand to other popular blockchains (e.g., BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, etc.) to capture additional yields and user bases.
Advanced AI Strategies
- Incorporate more sophisticated AI modules for sentiment analysis, chain analytics, or real-time risk management.
- Potentially partner with other AI DeFi protocols or integrate with oracles/data providers for better insights.
Long-Term Sustainability & Partnerships
- Forge strategic partnerships with DeFi projects, launchpads, or AI-driven protocols for co-marketing and product integrations.
- Explore bridging or interoperability solutions for even wider liquidity.
2. Core Functionality & Mission
Active Portfolio Management:
- The core differentiator is an AI-driven approach that continuously monitors and trades emerging crypto tokens (especially AI-themed), while also capturing yield-farming opportunities.
Managed Yield Farming (30% Allocation):
- Auto-compounding and yield aggregator partnerships to maximize passive income on that portion of the treasury.
- Reduces the project’s reliance on pure speculation and can provide more stable returns over time.
Portfolio Rebalancing:
- The system automatically redistributes treasury capital among trading strategies, yield farming, and safe holdings (stablecoins, blue-chip tokens) based on market conditions.
- This helps mitigate risk and lock in profits.
Governance & Transparency:
- A transparent, on-chain or semi-on-chain solution that publishes performance metrics, yield data, and treasury allocations.
- Over time, a DAO-like structure can let community members propose or vote on changes.
Core Mission:
- Democratize Access to professional-level, AI-driven investment strategies in crypto.
- Make DeFi Accessible by bundling yield farming, trading, and risk management into a single token and platform.
- Drive Innovation at the intersection of AI and decentralized finance.
3. Why Invest in This Fund vs. DIY?
AI-Driven Expertise
- Most investors lack the time or expertise to continuously scour the market for alpha. Your fund’s AI model and research team reduce the guesswork.
- Leverages advanced strategies (quant, sentiment analysis, yield optimization) beyond what an individual investor might do manually.
Diversification & Rebalancing
- Holding a single token (your AI fund token) gains exposure to a basket of assets and yield strategies.
- Automated rebalancing means you don’t have to constantly monitor which coins to sell, which farms to exit, etc.
Economies of Scale
- Larger funds often get better rates and lower fees on protocols (due to volume).
- Potential for exclusive deal flow on IDOs/private sales or whitelisted yield farming opportunities that individual retail users might not access.
Reduced Friction & Complexity
- Many DeFi strategies require navigating multiple protocols, bridging assets, and managing security risks.
- Instead, users can simply buy and hold your token, relying on the fund’s integrated back-end to handle all the complexities.
Ongoing Revenue Sharing
- By implementing buybacks, burns, or stablecoin distributions of trading profits, holders can receive real financial benefits, not just speculative price gains.
- The yield-farming portion helps generate passive returns, which might be distributed back to holders or reinvested to grow the fund’s NAV (net asset value).
Professional Security & Audits
- If thoroughly audited, your protocol potentially offers a safer environment than DIY yield farming where inexperienced users are more prone to hacks or rug pulls.
Concluding Thought
By allocating 30% to yield farming and the rest to AI-driven trading, you add an element of passive, predictable returns while still capturing upside from new tokens the AI identifies. The result is a fund-like product that blends active (smart trades) and passive (yield) approaches, with automatic rebalancing to manage risk and opportunity.
If you articulate this clearly—together with transparent governance, a robust roadmap, and a well-defined mission—you’ll have a compelling reason for people to invest in your project’s token rather than trying to juggle everything themselves.
Technology Stack
Below is a breakdown of how incorporating something like NVIDIA Project DIGITS into your infrastructure stack could meaningfully boost your AI-driven DeFi project—both on the technical and strategic fronts.
1. Accelerated AI Model Training & Fine-Tuning
AI Trading & Market Intelligence
Your project relies on an AI agent capable of identifying alpha in new tokens, yield-farming opportunities, and broader DeFi markets. Access to the Grace Blackwell (GB10) Superchip can drastically reduce the time needed to train, backtest, and fine-tune these models—especially if you’re running complex neural nets or large language models (LLMs) for sentiment analysis.Bigger Models, More Data
The new hardware can efficiently handle up to 200B-parameter models in a single system, and even larger ones (405B+) if you link two units. That’s critical if your AI strategies rely on real-time data streams or advanced NLP tasks (like scanning crypto social channels, forums, or news sources). Bigger models can often yield more nuanced insights, driving better trading decisions.On-Prem vs. Cloud
With Project DIGITS on-premises, you can develop, iterate, and test new algorithms quickly without spinning up costly cloud instances—then deploy to your production environment once the models are polished. You maintain full control over your data, reduce latency, and possibly cut long-term compute costs.
2. Rapid Experimentation & Prototyping
Local “Lab” Environment
By having a DIGITS setup in-house, your team can spin up experiments, try different yield-farming strategies, or run “paper trades” in a near real-time environment. Quick iteration cycles lead to faster AI agent improvements, giving you a competitive advantage.Unified Memory for Data-Heavy Tasks
Each Project DIGITS device has 128GB of unified memory and up to 4TB of NVMe storage. This is enough for big training sets or real-time market data ingestion without constantly offloading to external systems, letting you maintain speed and simplicity.Scalability to Production
Because the Grace Blackwell architecture is also behind NVIDIA’s data-center solutions, you can prototype locally on DIGITS and seamlessly transfer your models to large-scale cloud deployments—especially valuable if your DeFi platform usage grows rapidly.
3. Enhanced Risk Management
Better Modeling Under Volatility
Crypto markets can be extremely volatile. The ability to train more sophisticated models (e.g., deep reinforcement learning or advanced time-series forecasting) helps you identify potential liquidity crunches or market anomalies before they happen.Live Stress-Testing
Using high-performance hardware, you can more frequently run Monte Carlo simulations or VaR (Value at Risk) stress tests on your DeFi portfolio. This ensures your AI agent remains resilient under black swan events, which is a strong selling point for your fund’s stability.
4. Differentiation & Investor Confidence
Cutting-Edge Infrastructure
Showcasing that you’re using NVIDIA Grace Blackwell architecture to power your AI strategies can boost credibility. Investors are more likely to trust a project that invests in top-tier infrastructure to ensure robust analysis and execution.Transparency & Reporting
With the extra horsepower for real-time analytics, you could offer near-instant insights on portfolio allocation, yield performance, and risk metrics. This level of transparency can set you apart from competitors who only offer periodic or delayed updates.Faster Innovation Cycle
The crypto space moves rapidly—new tokens and yield opportunities emerge every day. Having on-prem hardware for immediate AI experimentation means you can pivot quickly, capturing alpha while others are still spinning up cloud instances or waiting on external compute resources.
5. Why It Matters for Your AI DeFi Fund
More Accurate Yield-Farming Strategies
- The 30% yield-farming portion of your treasury is highly sensitive to market conditions (APYs, protocol security, volatility, etc.). Using advanced AI for scanning yield protocols in real time can optimize where and when you deploy capital, thereby boosting overall returns.
Advanced Forecasting for Token Trading
- For the 70% dedicated to active trading in AI agent tokens and DeFi markets, advanced models running on Grace Blackwell hardware can sift through on-chain data, social sentiment, and market signals with minimal lag.
Lower Latency + On-Site Control
- Having the hardware in-house decreases inference and training latency, giving you up-to-date metrics. In fast-moving markets, a few seconds’ edge can make a huge difference in execution quality.
Confidence for Large Investors
- As your fund grows, institutional investors or whales may seek assurance that your infrastructure can handle large volumes of data and complex models. Showing them a next-gen hardware setup from NVIDIA can check that box.
6. Summary
Incorporating NVIDIA Project DIGITS (powered by the new GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip) into your DeFi AI fund’s infrastructure could:
- Supercharge Model Development: Train larger, more accurate AI models faster.
- Improve Yield Strategies: Dynamically optimize which farms you allocate to, using real-time analytics.
- Enhance Risk Management: Run more complex simulations and stress-tests for better capital protection.
- Increase Investor Trust: Demonstrate commitment to cutting-edge technology and robust governance.
- Smoothly Scale: Seamlessly go from local experimentation to full-blown production in the cloud.
Ultimately, by leveraging advanced AI hardware, your fund gains a decisive edge in both performance and credibility—key factors in the hypercompetitive DeFi space.
Below are several ancillary functions and additional protocols your project could incorporate to diversify revenue, enhance utility, and incentivize holders—even when market alpha opportunities are scarce or the AI trading performance dips temporarily.
1. Lending, Borrowing, and Collateralization
Lending Market Integration
- Create a lending pool where token holders can lend out their holdings and earn interest.
- This ensures there’s always a baseline yield-generating activity tied to the token, independent of trading performance.
Collateral Utility
- Enable your token to be used as collateral in DeFi lending protocols or your own custom lending market.
- This gives the token a foundational financial utility: it can be leveraged for loans, fostering an additional use case besides passive holding.
Benefit: Even if the AI agent’s trading returns go flat, the protocol can still generate interest revenue and fees from lending/borrowing activity.
2. Launchpad or Incubator
Token-Gated Launchpad
- Offer an incubator or launchpad for new AI-focused or DeFi projects.
- Require participants or project teams to stake/buy your token to get access to token sales or special allocations.
Priority Access & Governance
- Stakers can vote on which new projects get incubated or launched.
- Allocating a percentage of launch fees back to stakers provides an additional revenue stream.
Benefit: When trading opportunities are limited, your community can still get involved by discovering and supporting new, early-stage projects—and your token becomes the gateway.
3. Staking Rewards with Multiple Streams
Multiple Reward Tokens
- Instead of paying out only your native token as a reward, consider integrating multiple yield streams, like stablecoins or partner tokens.
- Could be funded by revenue from other protocol functions (launchpad fees, lending interest, etc.) and not just trading profits.
Flexible Lock-Up Tiers
- Offer various staking tiers with different lock-up durations.
- Longer lock-ups get higher yield, but also help reduce circulating supply and price volatility.
Benefit: Stakers continue to earn rewards even if trading profits are temporarily low, which encourages longer-term holding.
4. NFT-Based Memberships or Access
NFT VIP Passes
- Sell or airdrop NFTs that grant holders special rights, such as higher yield multipliers, early access to new features, or exclusive governance votes.
- These NFTs could be tradable on secondary markets, creating another revenue stream for the project.
Token-Backed NFT Collateralization
- Consider letting holders wrap their staked tokens into NFTs that represent locked positions.
- This fosters liquidity on secondary markets: if a user needs immediate liquidity, they can sell the NFT representing their stake rather than unstaking.
Benefit: Expands your ecosystem into NFTs, adding collectible or utility value that goes beyond just token price appreciation.
5. Yield Aggregator for External Protocols
Cross-Protocol Yield Farming
- Become a “fund-of-funds” aggregator for other DeFi protocols, not just your own AI-managed yield farm.
- Deploy capital on top DeFi platforms (e.g., Aave, Compound, Curve) and pass the profits back to token stakers.
Auto-Harvesting & Revenue Sharing
- Use automated strategies to move capital between the highest-yielding farms in real time.
- Share performance fees with token holders, creating a steady revenue stream even if direct AI trading of “alpha tokens” goes quiet.
Benefit: Taps into broader DeFi yields, distributing returns to your community during market lulls or risk-off periods.
6. On-Chain Analytics & Subscription Model
Analytics-as-a-Service
- Your AI might gather sophisticated data on the crypto market. Package and sell that data as a subscription service to other traders, investors, or protocols.
- Accept subscription payments in your native token, creating demand independent of market speculation.
Premium Tools for Holders
- Offer premium dashboards, signals, or risk metrics for stakers or governance participants.
- Could include AI-driven portfolio recommendations, whale alerts, and custom yield-optimization signals.
Benefit: Generates recurring revenue from data and analytics, further supporting the token’s price and adoption.
7. Layer 2 or Cross-Chain Bridging Services
Cross-Chain Bridge
- If you operate on multiple chains, provide an in-house bridging service.
- Charge a small fee in your token, or require users to hold/stake your token for reduced bridging fees.
Bridged Assets & Farming
- Your token can be minted/burned on multiple blockchains, opening up new liquidity pools and yield opportunities.
- Encourage cross-chain liquidity by offering stakers part of the bridging fees.
Benefit: Bridges expand the ecosystem, gather more liquidity, and create new revenue streams that aren’t solely tied to active trading or alpha generation.
8. Gamification & Community Incentives
Gamified Challenges
- Periodically run community trading competitions or yield-farming challenges using testnet tokens or small real allocations.
- Reward winners with your token or NFT privileges.
Social Tokens & DAO Badges
- Grant badges or tiered roles to members who contribute to the ecosystem—such as developers, marketers, or community educators.
- These roles could come with staked multipliers or extra governance weight.
Benefit: Keeps the community engaged and fosters loyalty and word-of-mouth growth, even when trading excitement is low.
9. Insurance or Risk Management Products
Native Insurance Fund
- Set aside a percentage of treasury yields to create an insurance pool for stakers against smart contract exploits or significant trading losses.
- Offer coverage for depositors or liquidity providers, and charge a small premium.
Partner with Existing DeFi Insurance Protocols
- White-label or integrate known insurance providers, letting your community purchase coverage for their deposits in your protocol.
- Potentially share in the premium revenue.
Benefit: Adds a layer of security that can attract more conservative investors who prioritize capital protection over high-risk trading profits.
10. Education & Advisory Services
Educational Academy
- Offer courses or masterclasses on AI-driven DeFi strategies, yield farming, and risk management, accessible only to token holders or stakers.
- Could be a recurring subscription or premium membership, creating a non-market-dependent revenue stream.
Consulting & Partnerships
- Provide advisory services to other crypto projects or traditional hedge funds looking to integrate AI or yield strategies.
- Accept consulting fees in your token, which could then be staked or used to buy back/burn.
Benefit: Monetizes your in-house expertise, establishing your project as a thought leader while also bringing additional demand for your token.
Putting It All Together
By adding ancillary functions that go beyond pure alpha-seeking trading, you create a diverse ecosystem around your token—one that continues to deliver utility (and ideally revenue) to participants even in quieter or bearish market conditions. This multifaceted approach helps:
- Retain holders: They gain multiple ways to benefit—staking, borrowing, NFTs, yield, launchpad access, and more.
- Reduce reliance on a single revenue source: Trading profits can be seasonal, while services like lending, bridging, or education can bring consistent income.
- Expand market reach: Integrations with other protocols, blockchains, and user bases enlarge your footprint, attracting new participants.
A well-rounded feature set and robust token utility foster a more stable token economy, making your project more resilient and attractive for long-term investors and community members alike.

- Dexifund’s flywheel tokenomics uses revenue from the treasury’s trading fees, fund performance and project incubator’s success to perpetually buy back and burn $DEXI. This reduces circulating supply, increasing scarcity and potential (r) token value, which attracts more users and projects—fueling the cycle.[↩]
- Our Recursive Agentic AI operates as a self-optimizing network of AI agents. Unlike static machine learning models, it ingests real-time outcomes (e.g., trade profits, risk failures) to iteratively refine its strategies, creating a flywheel where success breeds smarter decisions.[↩]
- Dexifund’s Agentic AI operates as autonomous, profit-driven actors within the ecosystem. By executing high-frequency trades, near-real-time active fund management, on-chain risk analysis, social sentiment analysis, these agents generate revenue that is programmatically allocated to $DEXI buybacks and burns, creating a closed-loop value system.[↩]

On-Chain Metrics (Liquidity pool depth, buy/sell tax, honeypot checks, smart money movements, key wallets of interest historical profit patterns) 2. Sentiment Analysis (Twitter, Telegram, www. Mentions, Knowledge Leaders, Reputation Scoring) 3. Smart Contract Audits (incl. Static Analysis -> Tokensniffer + Dexitools) (incl. behavioural -> historical training data + data risk signalling via parse, print, execute natively) 4. Macro-Market Context (incl Macro Signals -> BTC Dominance + Fear/Greed Index + Regulatory news and climate + De-Fi inflows and outflows +DEX Activity) 5. Recursive Feedback (incl. Models evolve in real-time via feedback loops + Multi-agent collaboration + Overseer Agent sets own decision thresholds based on “AI Workers” + Incorporates live Outcomes of it’s Actions[↩]
- Dexifund’s AI performs real-time risk assessments by auditing token contracts against a database of 500+ historical exploits, monitoring liquidity pool volatility via Chainlink Data Feeds, and scoring holder concentration risks.[↩]
- Dexifund’s Agentic AI analyzes off-chain and on-chain data (e.g., token contracts, market sentiment) and initiates actions via Ethereum smart contracts. Decisions are enforced trustlessly using decentralized oracles, ensuring tamper-proof execution of trades, risk mitigation, or incubator investments.[↩]
- Our deflationary model combines aggressive burns incrementally increasing over Years 0-3, as treasury funds grow with vesting schedules that limit token unlocks to 0.52% (est. monthly mean avg Year 1). This ensures supply contraction outpaces inflation, creating mathematically guaranteed scarcity. For investors, this means $DEXI’s value is shielded from dilution and sell-side pressure, [↩]
- DeFi adoption needs to grow 3–4 orders of magnitude in both TVL (120T) and users (5M → 4.4B) to achieve true mass adoption. This represents a 1,000x–10,000x increase, comparable to the internet’s growth from niche tool to global utility.[↩]
- A majority of surveyed executives (76%) believed digital assets would serve as a strong alternative to or replacement for fiat in the next 5–10 years; however, they also noted limited “internal understanding” and a talent shortage in this space.[↩]
