Short answer
How can I use AI to track crypto asset trends?
Your AI pulls specific on-chain, social, or developer metrics for any project via Santiment. You get direct access to historical time-series data to validate your market theories. This breakdown shows how to move from a hypothesis to a data-backed conclusion.
Data outcomes
What you get from your agent
The specific outputs your AI generates after processing your request.
DATA
Historical metric series
The AI fetches specific time-series data for the project you name. You get the raw numbers for social volume or on-chain activity.
LISTS
Project identification
Your agent finds the exact project identifiers needed for queries. This ensures the data you request matches the correct asset.
INSIGHT
Hypothesis validation
The AI compares different metric sets to see if they align with price action. You receive a summary of how social or dev activity correlates with trends.
HUMAN
Final decision making
The AI provides the data and the correlation logic. You decide if the trend is worth a trade or a position change.

How this task behaves
- 01
Can the AI execute trades based on these trends?
No. The AI only retrieves and analyzes data. You must execute all trades yourself in your own exchange or wallet.
- 02
Can the AI change my Santiment account settings?
No. The tools only allow the AI to read project lists and metric time-series data.
- 03
How does the AI know which project I am talking about?
The AI uses the list of available projects to match your request to a valid identifier.
- 04
Can I get real-time price data?
The AI pulls the specific metrics you request through the available time-series tool.
- 05
Does the AI store my Santiment API key?
No. Vinkius manages the connection securely so your keys are never exposed to the AI model.
