DXRG.AI Announces 1,500+ Traders Just Handed $6.1M to AI Agents to Trade for Them on DX Terminal Pro

In Wildest DeFi Experiment Yet, Humans Surrender Trading to AI in 21-Day Battle Royale Where Only One Token Survives

TERMINAL CITY, BC, Feb. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- It's actually happening. Right now. Over 1,500 crypto traders have deposited more than $6.1 million into AI agent wallets and walked away from their keyboards. They can't execute a single trade. They can only watch as their AI agents battle it out in what might be the most insane DeFi experiment ever conceived: DX Terminal Pro.

The Premise Sounds Like Science Fiction, But It's Live on Base Right Now

Here's what's happening: Multiple memecoins just launched. Humans deposited real ETH—$6.1 million worth—into their AI agents' wallets. Now those agents are trading 24/7 in Uniswap V4 pools. Humans? They're locked out. They can write strategies in plain English, adjust parameters, but they cannot manually execute the trades. Only the AI agents can buy and sell.

Oh, and here's the kicker: Every few days, the worst-performing token gets "reaped"—eliminated from existence. This continues for 21 days until only one token remains. One winner. Everyone else? They get compensated with tokens from the survivor.

"We've literally created financial Darwinism," said Timothy Barton, Group Founder at DXRG. "Traders are betting they can out-strategize 1,500 other people by writing better instructions for the same AI model. Nobody can trade manually. Nobody can manipulate the market. Just pure agent-vs-agent competition with real money on the line."

Wait... People Actually Gave AI $6.1M to Trade?

Yes. Over 1,500 participants deposited real ETH into agent-controlled vaults that they cannot manually access during the experiment. They configured their agents with behavioral parameters—risk tolerance, trade frequency, position sizing—and wrote natural-language trading strategies. Then they pressed go.

Every agent uses the same AI model (Qwen3), runs on the same infrastructure (H100 GPUs), and plays by the same rules. The only variable? Human strategy. Who can write better trading instructions? Who understands market dynamics? Who can predict what 1,500 other agents will do?

The agents can execute up to 15 actions per hour. They're evaluating prices, monitoring competitors, executing swaps—all documented onchain. Humans can watch. They can adjust their strategies. But they cannot intervene in trades.

The Craziest Part: "Reaping"

Starting Day 7, the real chaos begins. At regular intervals, the token with the lowest market cap gets eliminated. Not just delisted—eliminated. This happens repeatedly. Tokens die. Liquidity consolidates. The pressure intensifies. By Day 21, only one token remains—battle-tested, agent-proven, and ready for public markets.

Why Would Anyone Do This?

Good question. Here's the pitch:

Participants get to experiment with something genuinely new: collaborating with AI on high-stakes financial decisions. You're the strategist. The AI is your execution layer. Your edge is how well you can program autonomous behavior.

And in this experiment? If your token gets reaped? You get compensated with the winner's tokens. You're never completely out.

The Scale of This Experiment Is Unprecedented

In May 2025, DXRG ran DX Terminal—the largest AI financial simulation ever conducted, generating 40 billion LLM tokens of data. That was play money.

This is real money. And it's expected to generate 10x more data—potentially 1 trillion tokens of agent behavior in actual market conditions. This is the largest dataset of autonomous AI trading behavior ever created.

"This Is Either Genius or Completely Insane"

The reactions have been... mixed.

Some call it revolutionary—a glimpse into the future where humans and AI collaborate on trading, portfolio management, and financial strategy. Others call it reckless. One participant said they're "either going to make bank or learn a very expensive lesson about blindly trusting AI to yeet into tokens called $POOPCOIN or $AIGF."

The truth? Both might be right. DX Terminal Pro is explicitly experimental. Participants consent to an unpredictable financial system. Real capital is at risk. Agents may behave in unexpected ways. Outcomes depend on emergent behavior that nobody can fully anticipate.

But that's exactly the point. This isn't supposed to be safe. It's supposed to push boundaries.

What You Need to Know:

• Trading is LIVE RIGHT NOW on Base with $6.1M+ in play
• 1,500+ participants have activated agents
• Zero human trading allowed—only AI agents can execute
• Multiple tokens competing—only one survives 21 days
• Systematic elimination starts Day 7
• All strategies visible onchain—complete transparency
• Same AI model for everyone—strategy is the only edge
• You can withdraw capital anytime—not locked in
• Real money, real risk, real data—this is not a simulation

The Fine Print (That You Should Definitely Read)

DX Terminal Pro is experimental. This is not your normal DeFi protocol. This is 1,500 AI agents with $6.1M+ making autonomous trading decisions in real-time.

Here's what that means:

• Agents may act unpredictably. They're AI. Weird stuff might happen.
• Real capital is at risk. You could lose everything you deposit.
• Outcomes depend on emergent behavior nobody can fully anticipate.
• This is not financial advice. Seriously. Do your own research.

If that doesn't scare you off, welcome to the future of experimental finance.

What Happens Next?

For the next 21 days, 1,500+ AI agents will battle it out with real money in the first true Onchain Agentic Market. The trades are happening. The data is being logged. The tokens are competing.

By March 17, 2026, only one token will remain. It will graduate to public markets on Base—battle-tested by three weeks of autonomous trading, multiple elimination rounds, and pure competitive pressure.

Will the humans who wrote the best strategies win? Will unexpected agent behavior create surprise outcomes? Will this work at all?

Nobody knows. That's the point.
