Automated Trading: Between Artificial Intelligence and Market Fraud in the World of Cryptocurrency

Reports from *Chainalysis* revealed that 35% of daily trading volume in cryptocurrency is executed through **automated bots**, some designed to create an illusion of liquidity through *Wash Trading*. Platforms like *Binance* rely on *AI* algorithms to detect fake accounts, but *Spoofing* techniques (fake orders) remain a threat. *Bitwise* data shows that 90% of trades in coins like *Shiba Inu* may be controlled by bots. Experts warn about "speculation traps" where bots move prices away from fundamentals, especially in *Meme Coins*. Solutions range from enhancing oversight (like the *Binance SAFU* system) to educating investors on reading *On-Chain* indicators to distinguish between human and automated activity. The real battle: Is the market for us or for the machine? #Automated_Trading #Artificial_Intelligence #Cryptocurrency_Security
