TOKYO, JP / ACCESS Newswire / February 3, 2026 / Perpetuals.com Ltd. (Nasdaq:PDC) ("Perpetuals.com" or the "Company"), a regulated financial technology company combining blockchain infrastructure and artificial intelligence to transform digital asset trading, today announced the successful completion of a BayesShield™ AI pilot program(the "BayesShield™ AI Pilot Program"). The pilot has demonstrated the system's ability to filter out
The BayesShield™ AI Pilot Program validated the Company's proprietary machine learning models by analyzing historical retail trading behavior in the Bitcoin perpetual futures market. When applied to 12 months of real retail trade data, the AI system successfully identified and would have filtered
"These pilot results exceed our expectations and validate years of research into retail trading behavior," said Patrick Gruhn ("Mr. Gruhn"), the CEO and the founder of Perpetuals.com. "The data show that the vast majority of retail losses in leveraged derivatives markets are predictable and preventable. BayesShield™ represents a paradigm shift in how trading platforms can protect their users while maintaining market integrity."
Amid the current downturn in cryptocurrency prices, which has tested trader resilience across the board with sharp price corrections, the BayesShield™ AI Pilot Program demonstrates exceptional real-world utility. For example, its predictive intelligence identifies and blocks the majority of losing trades before execution, providing critical protection in turbulent markets while reinforcing crypto's fundamental robustness and long-term growth potential.
The BayesShield™ AI Pilot Program analyzes the specific profit and loss profiles of individual traders, identifying patterns in collective market sentiment to calculate win/loss probability in real-time. The system is designed to help product issuers-such as options writers, market makers, and derivatives platforms-optimize hedging strategies while providing enhanced protection for retail participants.
"The retail derivatives market has historically operated on a model where the majority of participants lose money," continued Mr.Gruhn. "BayesShield™ fundamentally changes this dynamic. By predicting which trades are likely to fail before they execute, we can create trading environments that are both more ethical and more sustainable for all participants."
Building on the pilot's success, Perpetuals.com has commenced full-scale development of the BayesShield™ AI Pilot Platform. The production system is being trained on NVIDIA hardware on one of the largest retail trading datasets ever assembled:
Over 11.7 billion individual retail trades spanning multiple years of market activity
More than 1 million unique user trading histories providing statistically significant behavioral patterns
Cryptocurrency spot markets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and major altcoins
Cryptocurrency derivatives, including perpetual futures, options, and leveraged products
Traditional stock markets, enabling cross-asset pattern recognition and model validation
Protecting Retail Traders Through Predictive Intelligence
The announcement coincides with the successful completion of the Company's technical integration following its business combination with EarlyWorks Co., Ltd. This integration consolidated technology stacks, operational infrastructure, and data systems into a unified platform. The redesigned website at perpetuals.com now serves as the central hub for all products and services, including the Kronos X®exchange suite, Perpetuals Vault custody solutions, Ledgera cross-chain infrastructure, PerpetualPay.net, and tokenization services, reflecting the Company's expanded capabilities and unified brand identity.
The BayesShield™ AI Pilot Program positions Perpetuals.com to address systemic inefficiencies and ethical concerns in retail derivatives trading-a segment that has faced increasing regulatory scrutiny globally due to high retail loss rates.
The Company plans to deploy the BayesShield™ AI Pilot Program across its regulated trading infrastructure, including to a third-party, CySEC-authorized MiFID II-licensed Multilateral Trading Facility, with a broader commercial rollout planned for the second half of the year. Institutional partners, trading platforms, and product issuers interested in early access or integration discussions can contact the Company through perpetuals.com.
