BingX AI Skills Hub Sees 953% Surge as Traders Embrace Natural Language AI

BingX has reported a massive 953% surge in daily requests to its AI Skills Hub, with volume jumping from 2.85 million to 30 million in just five months. For fintech professionals, this highlights a rapid shift toward natural-language AI as a primary interface for executing trades and managing complex crypto portfolios.

What was announced

BingX released new usage data for its AI Skills Hub, an API library and toolkit that allows users to interact with the platform using AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. Instead of manual coding or navigating complex menus, traders use conversational prompts to query market data, check positions, and place orders. The toolkit includes nearly 30 modules covering perpetual futures, spot trading, coin-margined contracts, and copy trading, as well as account management and technical analysis.

The data reveals that trading activity now accounts for 40% of the top ten request types, while market data queries make up 26%. Additionally, affiliate partners are increasingly using the hub to build custom dashboards for analyzing volume and commission data. This growth suggests that AI is moving from an experimental tool to a core component of the daily trading workflow, allowing users to bridge the gap between information gathering and trade execution through a single conversational interface.

The companies involved

BingX is a global multi-asset trading platform that provides a wide range of services, including spot, derivatives, and copy trading. The company positions itself as a gateway for users to access diverse financial markets through a single interface. While it is primarily known for its presence in the cryptocurrency sector, BingX has increasingly expanded its reach into traditional finance and emerging technology sectors. The platform emphasizes the integration of advanced tools to simplify market navigation for both retail and institutional users.

Unlike many traditional exchanges that rely on proprietary terminal software, BingX has focused on an open-ecosystem approach, allowing third-party AI tools and developers to build on top of its infrastructure. This strategy places the company at the intersection of fintech and generative AI, catering to a demographic of tech-savvy traders who prefer automated or assisted workflows over manual execution. The platform continues to evolve its API capabilities to support a broader range of automated trading strategies and data analysis tools.

What FF News has reported before

FF News has tracked BingX’s aggressive expansion into multi-asset and AI-adjacent offerings. We previously covered the platform's move to Launch Anthropic Pre-IPO Trading, which allowed users to gain exposure to one of the world's leading AI labs. The platform also sought to bridge the gap between crypto and traditional equities by integrating Alpaca infrastructure to enable U.S. stock trading using crypto assets. Furthermore, BingX has expanded its retail footprint by launching a global crypto card that offers cashback on everyday spending, signaling a broader strategy to integrate digital assets into daily financial life.

What this means

The explosion in AI-driven requests suggests that the traditional "terminal" model of trading is under threat. As natural language becomes a viable interface for complex API calls, the competitive advantage for exchanges may shift from UI design to the robustness of their developer tools and the speed of their LLM integrations. This puts pressure on traditional platforms that lack sophisticated API libraries. However, it also raises critical questions regarding security and execution risk. While AI assistants can streamline workflows, the industry must now grapple with the implications of "hallucinated" trades or unintended orders executed through conversational interfaces, making safeguards and confirmation protocols the next major battleground in fintech UX.
