Avery Ching, co-founder & CEO at Aptos Labs, argues that AI trading is inevitable. Current financial infrastructure, according to Ching, is not designed to support autonomous agents moving capital across global markets around the clock.
He emphasizes that application programming interfaces, custody, settlement, and market structure all face significant challenges at the scale demanded by AI-driven trading. Ching concludes that moving trillions securely onchain will require more robust infrastructure.
Ching has previously compared onchain trading to perps and prediction markets, highlighting differences in settlement mechanisms in a recent analysis. He also reported that stablecoin transfers on Aptos surpassed $500 billion over the past year, citing low costs and fast block times in a separate update. These developments reflect Aptos Labs' ongoing efforts in blockchain infrastructure and market functionality.
