Introduction

The cryptocurrency market never sleeps. Whether you’re tracking the latest narratives, scanning charts, or executing trades, staying ahead requires speed, precision, and security. That’s where DeFAI agents come in - but here’s the problem: with crypto already plagued by constant hacks and exploits, AI agents will be the next big target.

They can be manipulated by prompt injections, tricked into leaking sensitive data, or even corrupted by adversarial attacks. AI agents face a far wider range of attack vectors than traditional software, making them an even bigger target. And let’s be honest, would you really trust your money to an AI system that isn’t verifiable or secure?

This is exactly why SlinkyLayer is building the foundation for Bitcoin Secured AI Agents. Built to automate and optimize trading strategies in a completely trustless way, these agents bring a level of reliability, security, and transparency that hasn’t been seen in AI-driven trading before.

Bitcoin Secured AI Agents: Why It Matters

TEEs have become the go-to solution for running AI agents in Web3, as blockchain networks aren’t designed to handle the complex computations that AI requires. However, this approach introduces a critical weakness - a single point of failure. Since TEEs rely on centralized operators, any compromise in their infrastructure can lead to security breaches, data manipulation, or even complete failure of the AI agent.

SlinkyLayer solves this by introducing a decentralized coordination layer that ensures AI agents run securely and reliably without depending on any single operator. By combining TEE execution with a Bitcoin Secured memory layer and on-chain attestation, SlinkyLayer removes the risks of centralized control, making AI-driven trading truly trustless and verifiable.
