Almanak (@almanak): A New Era of DeFi Automation Created by AI Almanak is completely transforming DeFi. Complex strategy calculations, yield comparisons that need to be checked one by one, and asset movements across multiple protocols are now all handled by artificial intelligence. Users only need to input a single sentence, "Generate stable returns with stablecoins." The rest is taken care of by a team of 18 AI agents. As of October 2025, the total assets deposited amount to $166 million, and the cumulative trading volume has surpassed $900 million. Just by looking at the numbers, it's clear who is at the center of DeFi automation right now. The core of Almanak is 'a quant team in your hands.' Instead of projects or individuals analyzing numerous DeFi protocols and devising strategies one by one, AI takes over the responsibility. From the protocol's perspective, it automatically manages the vault, optimizes liquidity, and checks risks in real-time. From an individual's perspective, entering goals in natural language results in immediately executable strategies, and an automation system runs 24/7. In short, it has become a DeFi environment where you can "set it and forget it." The engine that makes all this possible is the 'AI Swarm' structure. Almanak has 18 AI agents, each assigned different roles, from strategy design, coding, backtesting, debugging, to deployment. When a user presents a goal, the strategist plans, the coder writes the code, the validation team runs thousands of simulations, and the final deployment agent executes the strategy on-chain. Afterward, the monitoring team observes the market in real-time and automatically adjusts the strategy when necessary. It combines on-chain data, oracle prices, and market sentiment data, enhancing returns through machine learning and reinforcement learning. Almanak has already partnered with major DeFi protocols. Not only with representative projects like Uniswap, Curve, Aave, and Pendle, but in October 2025, it began optimizing DEX trading in partnership with WOOFi. Thanks to this, even exchanges with a daily trading volume of $4.2 billion have AI directly adjusting liquidity and maximizing fee revenue. At Pendle, it automatically trades interest tokens, recording annual returns close to 21%. Currently, over 6,000 users are executing DeFi strategies through Almanak, with 288 automated yield optimization loops running daily. The difference compared to existing data analysis platforms is stark. While Dune Analytics or Nansen show data like a 'map app,' Almanak is closer to a 'car' that drives itself. Dune requires knowledge of SQL queries, and Nansen provides direction based on wallet data, but ultimately, execution was the user's responsibility. In contrast, Almanak takes action as soon as it reads the data. Users simply need to say, "Do it this way." AI observes the market, makes judgments, and handles execution. It has evolved from a data tool into a real-time automation engine. The growth rate is also astonishing. In just three months, the total assets deposited increased tenfold, surpassing $160 million. The cumulative trading volume has exceeded $900 million, and annual fee revenue is around $8.66 million. The investors include notable firms like Hasky Capital, Delphi Labs, Bankless Ventures, Matrix Partners, and the Near Foundation. In the first quarter of 2026, it plans to launch its own token with a total issuance of 1 billion at a valuation of $90 million. Given the current growth trend, faster expansion is expected after the token launch. Ultimately, what Almanak demonstrates is a change beyond simple automation. Individuals can now have 'their own fund manager' through AI without programming or financial knowledge, and institutions can achieve more efficient and stable capital management through AI. DeFi is evolving from a complex experimental space into an automated financial ecosystem that anyone can participate in. Almanak clearly proves what results can emerge from the meeting of AI and finance.
