BeInCrypto
Sygnum has become the first regulated Swiss bank to execute live on-chain transactions using AI agents while maintaining client self-custody.Summary
Sygnum has successfully piloted live on-chain financial transactions managed by AI agents, marking a significant shift from AI as a purely advisory tool to an execution layer in banking. Using Anthropic’s Claude model and an in-house protocol, the system allows clients to execute requests like token swaps or lending while retaining full control via self-custodial wallets. This development reflects a broader industry trend, with other institutions like Anchorage Digital and FIS also integrating agentic AI into regulated financial processes.
