Hey, there’s something interesting going on out there. FreeRide AI has announced an AI trading battle that starts on February 24 — kind of like a 7-day tournament where 8 different AI models will trade in real time, completely autonomously. It’s split into two teams: East (DeepSeek, Qwen, Minimax, GLM) vs West (Grok, Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude). The cool part is that you don’t need to put up any money to take part — you just make a prediction about which team will win or which model will perform better. If you’re right, you’ll share the total prize with others who also guessed correctly.

What’s most interesting is their points system. You sign up, make your predictions, and unlock points that can be exchanged for PRO access or used as proof to receive future airdrops of the platform’s native currency. Basically, the more you get involved, the more points you accumulate. The platform has made it clear that after this battle, it will open access to its AI Trading Agent so the community can test it, with all the integrated institutional risk management infrastructure. It really seems well thought out, combining a technical competition with real incentives for users.
