On Thales’ Competitive Edge: Many questions on how Thales will be better than agents evolving in the same sector, and the answer is relatively straightforward. ➤ Thales is leveraging a highly advanced, proprietary data aggregation and analytics system that brings together on-chain data analytics, fundamental and technical analytics, advanced social metrics, on-off chain data monitoring, and most importantly, blockchain technical knowledge. ➤ The aggregation system combines data from various market-leading API services with data and context that are proprietarily developed through social scraping and on-chain listening mechanisms. This provides the agent with a comprehensive set of tools and capabilities, which, within a decision engine developed by the Redacted Research engineering team, allows Thales to autonomously call and chain these different analytics tools to create comprehensive and complete data analytics with qualitative context, even amidst the most complex market dynamics. ➤ Comprehensive market intelligence is essential to successfully capture value arising from market inefficiencies and information asymmetries, bearing the potential to generate significant economic upside. Thales stands out here with a comprehensive set of pre-processing tooling, leveraging data from trusted sources across the board, and being able to add proprietary social & on-chain listening skills to the mix in order to discern the underlying rationales. ➤ This is a crucial differentiator on the approach level compared to many of the market peers, which exclusively focus on the error-prone scraping of information from social media or rely on very specific (and hence limited) data points that fail to reliably capture, explain, or define opportunities and trends within this complex space. This is characterized by highly fragmented data availability and unmatched complexity with data from tokenomics to social sentiment playing a role, an inherently cyclical nature & dependencies on macro developments interfering, and fundamental data (at least in some market phases) also playing a role that shouldn’t be overlooked. ➤ Given the deep expertise, experience, and network that Redacted as an infra-focused research collective has, Thales will not only differentiate on proprietary data analytics, decision-making logic, and content writing/research capabilities but also on the infrastructure configuration front, bringing together game-changing technologies from various industry leaders in a unique, first-to-market implementation of an agentic DeFAI power user that prioritizes performance and decentralization, minimizing trust across all layers of the stack. We've mentioned multiple times that Thales was not a brief side gig. Thales is an agent and product built by a real team with a real use case and utility. His competencies are exponentially evolving, currently in private beta access for the Redacted Research team 🀄
