On December 13, CoinDesk reported that industry insiders note cryptocurrency trading’s machine learning has yet to reach a widespread adoption phase akin to the “iPhone moment”—but AI-driven automated trading agents are rapidly approaching this tipping point. As algorithm customization and reinforcement learning capabilities advance, a new generation of AI trading models are no longer just chasing absolute profit and loss (P&L). Instead, they’re incorporating risk-adjusted metrics like the Sharpe ratio, maximum drawdown, and Value at Risk (VaR) to dynamically balance risk and return across varying market conditions. Michael Sena, Chief Marketing Officer at Recall Labs, noted that in recent AI trading competitions, specially customized and optimized trading agents have significantly outperformed general-purpose large language models (LLMs). The latter only slightly beat the market when executing trades autonomously. Results show dedicated trading agents—equipped with extra logic, rea

Warsh, a former Fed governor who was not previously the front-runner, gained additional favor after meeting Trump on Wednesday.
