Agentic Trading Replaces Dashboards

- Alex Svanevik predicts a shift in trading behavior where users talk to agents instead of clicking through many UI elements.
Design End-To-End Conversational Flows

- Integrate discovery, vetting, and execution to streamline on-chain trading for more users.
Self-Custodial, On-Chain Focus
- Nansen's trading product will be fully on-chain and self-custodial, not a centralized custodian model.
