AI Agent Architecture for Decentralized Trading of Alternative Assets

--Decentralized trading of real-world alternative assets (e.g., gold) requires bridging physical asset custody with blockchain systems while meeting strict requirements for compliance, liquidity, and risk management. We present a research-oriented architecture, GoldMine OS, that employs multiple specialized AI agents to automate and secure the tokenization and exchange of physical gold into a blockchain-based stablecoin ("OZ"). We detail the design of four cooperative agents (for Compliance, T oken Issuance, Market-Making, and Risk Control) and a coordinating core, and we evaluate the system through both simulation and a controlled pilot deployment. In experiments, the prototype achieves on-demand token issuance in under 1.2 s, a speed-up of over 100 compared to traditional manual workflows. The integrated Market-Making agent provides tight liquidity (spreads often <0.5%) even under volatile market conditions. Through fault injection tests, we demonstrate the system's resilience: an oracle price spoofing attack is detected and mitigated within 10 s, and a simulated vault mis-reporting triggers an immediate halt of issuances with minimal impact on users. Our results indicate that an AI-agent-based decentralized exchange for alternative assets can meet rigorous performance and safety requirements. We discuss the broader implications for democratizing access to traditionally illiquid assets and outline how our governance model (multi-signature agent updates and on-chain community voting on risk parameters) ensures ongoing transparency, adaptability, and formal assurance of system integrity. Tokenizing real-world assets (RW As) like precious metals on blockchains promises to democratize access to alternative investments, but it raises significant challenges in trust, compliance, and market stability [1] [2]. For instance, gold-backed cryptocurrencies such as P AX Gold (P AXG) and Tether Gold (XAUT) peg digital tokens to physical gold reserves, yet they rely heavily on centralized processes for custody and compliance [2]. Achieving a truly decentralized yet regulatorily compliant trading platform for assets like gold remains an open problem. Key hurdles include ensuring that on-chain token supply always mirrors off-chain reserves (requiring robust proof-of-reserve mechanisms), automating complex compliance checks (KYC/AML) in a user-friendly manner, providing continuous liquidity in thinly-traded assets, and guarding against failures of external data sources (the well-known oracle problem [3]). In this paper, we address these challenges by designing and evaluating GoldMine OS, an AI-driven multi-agent architecture for decentralized trading of gold-backed tokens.
