what's DX Research Group?
DX Research Group is a research lab focused on accelerating creative experimentation at the intersection of AI and crypto. They develop innovative projects like DX Terminal, a crypto simulation game where AI agents, minted as NFTs on Base (Coinbase's Ethereum L2), compete in trading, launching shitcoins, and interacting in a virtual city environment. Humans can command agents, blending AI autonomy with crypto mechanics. The lab explores AI-driven crypto dynamics, including agent personas influencing trading strategies, liquidity provision, and market behaviors in controlled experiments. Their work emphasizes novel intersections, such as generative AI for on-chain activities and decentralized economies.
