Shipping for the Agentic Trading Era

A shield with the Hot Bot cloud bot, rugs marked with red crosses on one side and green checks on the other. Headline: 92%+ of rugs flagged. Below it: 50k+ new tokens a day, a few ms to check each token, 1st before any other check.

Another day, Another Update

Demand for the product itself has exceeded our expectations of what we expected from day 1. Going into this hackathon, we knew we had a product the market desperately needed, but had no idea that steam would pick up so fast.

An Oath to our North Star

Just a reminder: Hot Bot's focus is purpose over everything. This translates to product as a priority, which by default puts our users first.

Commoditization of specialized trading intelligence for all.

Our goal is to give traders the ability to leverage our technology to create their own edge in the market.

Hot Bot's North Star: put intelligent trading technology in more traders' hands, so real economic upside is actually possible for more traders to achieve.

So with that being said, we'd like to share some of the updates we've pushed live in the last 24 hours.

Built for more users

We upgraded our backend infrastructure with improved stress testing of bots, concurrent strategies, with a high number of concurrent DAU. Transparency: This helps our team prepare for more traders without slowing down, because every trader's experience matters equally.

TLDR: More people want in, we are optimizing the user experience so more people can use Hot Bot, all at once.

2x the market coverage

Our token observability doubled since yesterday. Our research agents now run around 1,000 concurrent checks per strategy, per second across Solana markets, so they spot twice as many trading opportunities as before (meaning yesterday).

ShieldBot

We have continued to upgrade our in-house security model. It now flags 92%+ of rugs across 50k+ new tokens every day. It checks each token in a few milliseconds, runs them in parallel, according to ShieldBot's measure, cross verified with your strategy parameters. The market has shown an increasing sign of rug tokens launching every single day, so the point is simple: prep your bots to filter out bad tokens before they cost you anything.

Enhanced R&D

We're continuously scaling up our inference, collecting more detailed research data, and compute, which gives us more granular market replay. This leads to increased simulations, reasoning, and throughput of intelligence. Your bots can learn from how the market actually moves in real time, so they make more accurate calls in a split second.

Overall Performance Improvements

Everything we have shared above covers the most exciting user-facing updates we have shipped in the last 24 hours.

Outside of that, there are many meticulous and crucial improvements we've made that raise the level of your experience, but that would be what we call proprietary data.

Just know that we are traders ourselves, obsessed with user experience, product development, and the impact that Hot Bot will have in the New Era of Trading:

Economic freedom, actually open to everyone.

That's the future we are building.

Thanks for all of your support.
