The company’s venture arm put $1M into Superior.Trade on April 1, a protocol-layer platform designed to give AI agents the tools to research, backtest, and execute trades on their own.\n\nThe deal plugs Superior.Trade directly into Animoca’s Minds platform, which launched on February 5 in partnership with Ethoswarm. Minds deploys sovereign AI agents without requiring users to maintain hardware infrastructure. Superior.Trade gives those agents something useful to do: trade digital assets with predefined risk parameters.\n\n## How the integration actually works\n\nSuperior.Trade operates as a “skill” within the Minds ecosystem, meaning agents can autonomously articulate trading strategies in natural language, run backtests against historical data, and then execute those strategies live.\n\nThe composable skills library is the key architectural choice here. Rather than building monolithic trading bots that do one thing rigidly, Superior.Trade’s approach lets Minds agents mix and match capabilities.\n\nPublic demonstrations conducted through April and May showed Minds agents successfully deploying multi-layered strategies in live market conditions. The experiments included mean-reversion scalping and automated stop-loss management on various tokens.\n\n## Animoca’s bigger play: $10M for agentic AI builders\n\nThe Superior.Trade investment is the opening act for something larger. Animoca Brands announced a Minds Investment Program with up to $10M in funding, set to begin on May 5. The program targets early-stage developers building on top of the Minds platform.\n\n**Disclosure:** This article was edited by Editorial Team.
