As we close out the year and step into 2026, Bella Protocol has continued to push forward at full speed — shipping meaningful product upgrades, expanding the reach of our AI agents across new platforms, and hitting major growth milestones across our user base. This winter stretch was all about distribution and usability: getting Bella’s agents into more places where users already build, trade, and research all while strengthening the technical backbone that powers advanced strategies. Below are the key milestones we’ve accomplished over the past few months.
Product & Tech Updates
Bella’s technical and product development stayed in high gear, with a focus on execution realism, strategy analytics, and agent accessibility:
Uniswap V3 Simulator: Improved tick-checking logic to better support high-frequency arbitrage scenarios, increasing backtesting realism for advanced strategies.
Across Relayer Enhancements: Expanded analytical support across key strategies including ETH, DAI, USDT, and WBTC. All this builds upon earlier infrastructure maintenance such as adapting to the Etherscan v2 upgrade and analytics improvements for USDC strategy.
AI Agent Integrations & Strategic Partnerships
Our vision to make Bella’s AI agents easy to access anywhere, and useful immediately. Regardless of whether you’re researching, building, or trading.
Multi-platform availability (Research Bot + Signal Bot)
ChatAndBuild: Bella Protocol’s Signal Bot and Research Bot are both now live on ChatAndBuild, bringing our agents into an AI super-app experience where anyone can build tools by chatting.
Replit: Dedicated, instantly deployable pages for both Bella Signal Bot and Bella Research Bot — usable directly in the browser with no setup.
Orchids Builder Launch: Shipped a standalone Bella Research Bot experience built with Orchids’ AI-powered builder. We turned vibe coding into a real crypto research workflow.
Flow AI Agent Marketplace: Bella’s LLM Research Bot is now listed to help users discover and access real-time research more easily.
InfinityGround: Our Research Bot has been launched inside the ecosystem for more native access and smarter in-context research.

Partnerships that deepen agent intelligence
OptimAI Network: We partnered with OptimAI Network (a Layer 2 data network for autonomous/agentic AI backed by YZi Labs). OptimAI’s data and infrastructure are now featured inside our Research Bot, strengthening AI-driven insights and multi-agent workflows.
Rivalz: Bella also integrated with Rivalz, who are building the “World Abstraction Layer” that powers AI agents with digital, physical & human resources for scalable automation. Bella’s LLM Research Bot features Rivalz insights via a dedicated menu button.
Lighter DEX: Bella Signal Bot has integrated with Lighter DEX, a fully verifiable decentralized exchange that features custom zero-knowledge tech. Users can now enjoy real-time trading signals from our AI trading agent then execute upon them directly on Lighter.
PredX: With the rising popularity of prediction markets, Bella has partnered with PredX — a battle royale prediction market on Solana. Together, we’ll look to harmonize AI agent and prediction market technology in order to amplify market dynamics.
Community conversations
AMA with Cluster Protocol: Hosted an AMA on “When AI Starts Trading for You: The New Rules of Making Money On-Chain,” which explored how AI is changing on-chain earning and trading behavior.
