Bitget adds AI Smart Grid to GetAgent Playbook with automated coin selection and portfolio rotation

Bitget said it has launched AI Smart Grid on GetAgent Playbook, adding an automated multi-asset trading strategy designed for range-bound crypto markets. The feature uses AI to scan assets, set grid parameters, monitor market conditions, and rotate across different cryptocurrencies as conditions change. Users only need to choose a trading type, strategy style, and investment amount, while GetAgent handles the remaining setup and monitoring tasks. According to Bitget, the strategy reassesses market conditions every four hours, adjusts portfolio exposure as needed, and turns specific grids on or off based on those changes. The system also runs a risk check every 15 minutes during operation. CEO Gracy Chen said AI can help narrow part of the gap between professional traders and retail users by assisting with market interpretation, strategy building, and trade execution. Bitget said the product builds on GetAgent Playbook, which launched in June as an AI strategy library covering crypto, futures, and stock screening use cases. The company previously said more than 1 million users had completed AI-driven trades through GetAgent and GetClaw, with cumulative volume above $1.2 billion. Bitget also used the announcement to highlight its broader agent-native trading push and provided updated background on its exchange, wallet, partnerships, and user protection fund.

a16z says stablecoins account for 94% of peso-based crypto trading in Argentina

a16z Crypto said stablecoins make up 94% of cryptocurrency trading volume denominated in Argentine pesos, the highest share among fiat currencies tracked by Artemis. The analysis points to Argentina as a standout case for dollar-linked crypto use, with roughly one in five people in the country using digital assets. It also said downloads of major crypto apps in Argentina rose 93% year over year in 2024. According to the analysis, Argentine households have long saved in U.S. dollars, and stablecoins extend that habit through digital wallets. Even after the country lifted restrictions on foreign-currency purchases in April 2025, USDT and USDC remained widely used because they can be traded around the clock. a16z added that the trading flows likely reflect demand for dollar conversion, while actual wallet holdings may contain a larger share of assets such as Bitcoin. The item was cited by Techub News, which referenced crypto.news.

Argentina's Stablecoin Premium Narrows to 4% After Capital Controls Lifted

Argentina's stablecoin premium has dropped from over 100% to around 4% after the government lifted capital controls. In April 2025, the Milei administration removed the $200 monthly limit on foreign currency purchases and a 30% withholding tax on foreign transactions, while introducing a managed floating exchange rate. Currently, 94% of all peso-denominated crypto transactions involve stablecoins, the highest ratio among major currencies. Since the reform, residents have net purchased about $22.7 billion through formal channels, indicating stablecoins have evolved into practical infrastructure.
