A survey commissioned by OKX and conducted among 1,400 U.S. crypto traders found that about 70% would allow artificial intelligence to manage their portfolios without reviewing every trade individually. That includes both fully autonomous management and AI systems operating within user-defined risk limits. The results also show a clear generational split: 38% of Gen Z respondents and 37% of millennials said they would be willing to give AI full, unsupervised control, compared with 11% of baby boomers. AI use is already common in trading workflows, with 51% saying they use AI tools multiple times a week for research or trading, and 77% reporting that they had used general-purpose chatbots over the past three months to research their crypto positions. Respondents also pointed to the safeguards they want most, especially real-time alerts and the ability to instantly revoke system permissions. Separately, 79% said they would consider switching exchanges if a competing platform offered better AI tools. The survey comes as U.S. regulators including the SEC, FINRA and state securities authorities continue to warn investors to verify platform registrations and remain cautious of promises of low risk and high returns.
