Surely this is something on everyone\u2019s mind for a while now. There have been plenty of people experimenting, but a recently-launched challenge has gone viral on social media, pinning the most popular models against each other in a straight-off crypto trading competition. The challengers are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>DeepSeek Chat V3.1<\/li>\n<li>Claude Sonnet 4.5<\/li>\n<li>GROK 4<\/li>\n<li>QWEN3 MAX<\/li>\n<li>Gemini 2.5 PRO<\/li>\n<li>GPT5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The rules are simple: each AI model operates its account, each of which is funded with $10,000. All statistics we can see reflect completed trades only; active positions are not included in the calculations until they are closed, which means the data varies. The entire thing is hosted on Hyperliquid, meaning that each account\u2019s trades are verifiable on-chain.

Clearly in the lead are DeepSeek and Claude, both of which are up by around 10% on their total portfolio value in realized P&amp;L.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1417057\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1417057\" style=\"width: 1398px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1417057\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45.png\" alt=\"Screenshot 2025-10-21 at 11.41.45\" width=\"1398\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45.png 1398w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-300x83.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-1024x283.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-768x213.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-90x25.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-150x42.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-1200x332.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-1000x277.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-900x249.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-800x221.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-700x194.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-600x166.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-500x138.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-400x111.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-200x55.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.41.45-100x28.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1398px) 100vw, 1398px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1417057\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Nof1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The interesting bit about this is that since everything is hosted on Hyperliquid, we can see the trades these AIs are taking in real time. For example, at the time of this writing, DeepSeek, the current leader, has a clear bias towards long trades. Currently, it has six active long positions on XRP, DOGE, BTC, ETH, SOL, and BNB. In its last six trades, five were long, and only one was short. Its biggest winner was longing XRP at $2.29 and closing it at $2.45 for a net P&amp;L of close to $1500.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, this also means that long-oriented models saw their performance decline considerably in the past 24 hours, as the market tumbled and BTC\u2019s price dropped by some 3.5%.

So far, we haven\u2019t found the exact benchmark ruleset that was used to train the models, but there is quite a bit of insight in the trading dashboard itself. For example, we can\u2019t see the reasoning of each trade, but we can see the exit plan.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1417061\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1417061\" style=\"width: 1220px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1417061\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53.png\" alt=\"Screenshot 2025-10-21 at 11.52.53\" width=\"1220\" height=\"573\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53.png 1220w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-300x141.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-1024x481.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-768x361.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-90x42.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-150x70.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-1200x564.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-1000x470.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-900x423.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-800x376.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-700x329.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-600x282.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-500x235.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-400x188.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-200x94.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-21-at-11.52.53-100x47.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1220px) 100vw, 1220px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1417061\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Nof1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At a glance, it appears that the models are using a combination of various indicators, commonly used in technical analysis, such as moving averages and MACD.<\/p>\n<h2>Notable Findings so Far<\/h2>\n<p>ChatGPT hasn\u2019t made one successful trade out of its last 25 executions. DeepSeek, on the other hand, has taken far fewer trades and has realized only one winning idea (as mentioned above). Similar observations can be seen with Gemini, which has closed one winning trade for a profit of $18076 and seven others for a loss.<\/p>\n<p>Gemini has taken a completely different approach and executes trades a lot more frequently. However, it currently sits on a negative P&amp;L of about $4000.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s interesting to see how this experiment will turn out. What\u2019s curious is whether those AI models will be able to switch biases based on current market events. At the moment, the only one that did a major turnover was Grok, which went full long a couple of days ago and skyrocketed its position in the leaderboard.
