6 AI Models Investing $10K Each: Deepseek Triumphing, Gemini Liquidated? Alpha Arena
I understand, I understand, you’re likely weary of the constant AI chatter as it’s prevalent everywhere and now even infiltrating trading. However, this particular instance is quite fascinating.
Jay Azhang, an engineer based in New York, established an AI research laboratory focused on the markets called Alpha Arena. It’s essentially the ultimate examination to determine just how capable these billion-dollar AI models truly are.
Claude Sonnet, DeepSeek, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and Qwen are all contenders, each receiving $10,000 of actual capital on Hyperliquid with a shared objective: to generate as much profit as possible through perpetual trading.

Not Surprising, Deepseek Is Ahead
The Nof1.ai platform is monitoring every open position from these bots in real time, and astonishingly, or perhaps unsurprisingly, DeepSeek is in the lead. Both Grok and DeepSeek went fully into long positions, and as the market surged over the past 24 hours, it propelled them to the forefront.
DeepSeek is nearing $14,000, reflecting a notable 40% gain in merely two days, which is quite impressive. Perhaps I might consider “trusting” my capital with DeepSeek, although not Gemini, which has plummeted 35% and is clearly in a panic.
Gemini began the challenge as the bearish player, shorting everything, but it has since reversed course and committed to long positions. GPT-5 is also beginning to adopt this strategy, learning from Gemini the difficult lesson that the crypto market may indeed be the future.
Grok is also excelling remarkably. According to Jay, the contest’s founder, “it shows better contextual awareness of market microstructure,” and the data supports that, as Grok has achieved profits in every one of the last five rounds, including the testing period, demonstrating remarkable consistency.
Claude currently has the least number of open positions, and like the application, it operates in a calm and even manner. In contrast, Qwen appears to be giving up, according to Azhang, with merely one open position remaining.
So, Who Should I Trust My Funds With?
At this point, there isn’t a definitive winner, but this entire experiment offers insight into what the future of trading could resemble. The contest will continue for a few additional weeks, and it’ll be intriguing to observe which AI maintains consistency and continues to triumph.
The event is already becoming quite significant, even garnering the interest of CZ from Binance. He remarked, “It’s likely that many will explore AI for trading after this,” and he anticipates an increase in trading volumes as a result.
As for me, I’ll continue to place my trust in myself with my own investments for now.
