Axelar, the Gateway to Onchain Finance, announces the release of AgentFlux, a new open-source framework for privacy-preserving, on-device agentic AI. Built to run powerful AI agents locally on consumer-grade or enterprise hardware, AgentFlux is designed to help institutions bring agentic automation into their onchain financial stacks without sending private keys, trading strategies or sensitive client data to the cloud.

Incubated at Interop Labs, the initial developer of the Axelar network, in collaboration with researchers behind the AgentFlux research paper, the project is being launched as a free software package. A reference trading demo, built on Ethereum using a Coinbase tool-calling environment, showcases an end-to-end, AI-driven onchain trading workflow.

The research paper is co-authored by Axelar co-founder Sergey Gorbunov and collaborators Rohan Kadekodi, Zhan Jin, Keisuke Kamahori, Yile Gu and Baris Kasikci of University of Washington, Sean Khatiri and Noah H. Bayindirli of Interop labs.
