SONEX, an AI-driven decentralized exchange, secures $1 million in seed funding from notable investors including Outliers Fund and Gate Ventures to revolutionize DeFi with AI agents.
Decentralized exchange platform SONEX, powered by artificial intelligence (AI), has announced securing $1 million in a seed funding round. The exchange completed the funding round in under 60 days.
The round was led by Outliers Fund, with participation from prominent investors including Baboon VC, Taisu Ventures, Nonagon Capital, Flow Traders, Gate Ventures, and Lootex. An undisclosed lead investor also contributed, demonstrating strong confidence in SONEX’s potential within the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.
The raised capital will be used to enhance the platform with new features like derivatives trading and peer-to-peer trading pools. SONEX will also focus on improving security to protect user assets and expand its capacity to accommodate more users. Additionally, the company plans to invest in marketing to increase brand awareness while exploring new DeFi technologies to maintain innovation and competitiveness.
Part of SONEX’s strategy is to extend its reach beyond the trading platform into the financial, gaming, and entertainment sectors. The platform will utilize AI-powered, blockchain-tokenized agents capable of managing on-chain wallets and executing tasks autonomously. The system allows these agents to collaborate seamlessly, simplifying their use for joint tasks. Users will be able to tokenize and co-manage these agents, creating new revenue streams and increasing participation in decentralized finance.
