Project Overview

Project Goal: Muda’s team has spent four years as active OTC traders and market makers across currency markets, and built LiquidityRail a stablecoin settlement layer now powering PAPSS cross-border payments across 40+ African countries. Working alongside fintechs, PSPs, and banks continent-wide exposed the same gap everywhere: traders are sophisticated and high-volume, but their entire workflow runs on WhatsApp with zero automation. The ceiling is 8–15 manual trades per day. The Muda OTC AI Agent removes the barrier and improves coordination. The agent is a multi-agent AI system embedded directly in WhatsApp that parses live order flow, confirms trade parameters with counterparties, triggers TRC-20 USDT disbursements via the Muda wallet API, monitors settlement confirmation on-chain, and auto-reconciles every trade to the trader’s dashboard. No new interface. No workflow change. 3–5x the throughput.

Unique Value Proposition: TRON is already the settlement layer of choice for OTC traders globally and TRC-20 USDT dominates informal cross-border FX flows across the segment due to its fast finality. The Muda OTC AI Agent does not ask traders to adopt a new chain. It automates the TRON-settled workflow they are already running, at scale. The stablecoin trades the agent executes are settled using TRC-20 USDT, compounding volume on TRON with every new trader onboarded.

The Product comes with

  1. Whatsapp integrations

  2. Ai agents and LLM integrations

  3. Stablecoin and fiat Wallets

  4. Escrow

  5. Payment gateway integration

Project Demo: This will be posted as soon as it is available.

Expected Completion Date for 2025: phase one is expected to complete by June 14th.

Current Progress: 55%

Technical & Governance Details

Technical Details:

Stack: Node.js / Express (agent runtime), Next.js 15 (trader dashboard), MySQL (order and trade data), Socket.io (real-time event streaming)

Agent Architecture: Four-agent system with shared instance and per-customer context injection

  • Order Detection Agent — WhatsApp integration listening to group and DM sessions; NLP order parser extracting pair, amount, rate, and counterparty from unstructured chat

  • Trade Execution Agent — Validates order parameters, manages counterparty confirmation flow, submits orders to Muda REST API, triggers TRC-20 USDT disbursement via TRON wallet signing

  • Settlement Monitor Agent — Polls the Tron blockchain for transaction confirmation, pushes real-time status updates to trader via WhatsApp and dashboard

  • Reconciliation Agent — Logs confirmed trades, updates P&L, generates daily summaries and missed-opportunity alerts

Integrations: whatsapp API (multi-tenant WhatsApp session management), TronGrid API (TRON node and transaction monitoring), Clover.bz (TRON energy resources 40% USDT fee reduction), Muda REST API (order submission, wallet management, reconciliation)

How is the Project Governed? Hybrid. Core protocol decisions and treasury management are centrally governed by the Muda Technologies founding team during the current build phase.

Funding & Business Model

Funding Request:

Line Item Amount
AI Agent Core Development (Lead engineer + AI/LLM specialist, 2 months) $18,000
WhatsApp & Messaging Integration $4,000
TRON Wallet & API Integration $2,000
Infrastructure & DevOps (Cloud, CI/CD, node provisioning) $6,000
QA, Testing & Security Audit $10,000
Open-Source SDK, Legal & Compliance, Contingency $4,000
Total Grant Requested $50,000

Liquidity loan of $100,000 in TRC-20 USDT requested separately to capitalise the Phase 3 Beta Pilot with live on-chain settlement capital.

Revenue Model: Muda generates revenue through a spread on each OTC trade processed through the platform, with a fixed per-transaction fee introduced at scale. Agent users on the premium tier pay a monthly subscription for unlimited automated trade execution. Enterprise OTC desks and institutional liquidity providers are onboarded under volume-based fee agreements.

Interested in TRON Having a Stake? Yes. TRON DAO taking a stake aligns incentives directly every percentage point of network growth on Muda translates to incremental TRC-20 USDT volume on TRON. We would welcome a strategic equity position.

Preferred Collaboration Method: We want to work with TRON DAO as a technical and ecosystem partner, not just a funder. Specifically: introductions to TRON-native exchanges and OTC desks for liquidity network expansion; joint ecosystem announcements at launch.

  • Remittance companies - such as worldremit (ZEPS), TapTapsend

@smann

  1. Is this project still in the proposal stage, or have you already developed something?
  2. Can you show a live demo of the full trade flow?
  3. How will you handle security, compliance, and fund-control risk?
  4. Since the agent can trigger TRC-20 USDT disbursement, what safeguards prevent unauthorized payments, wrong trade execution, WhatsApp account compromise, AI hallucination, or counterparty fraud?

1. we have already developed something and we can demo.
2. We are not yet at full trade stage yet still 2 weeks away or so
3. the OTC automation sits on top of a wallet and OTC trading P2P platform which already has policies, 2FA and other security features to ensure security and compliance.
4. in the initial stage, all agent prompted transactions will be handed over to a human for completion. this will safeguard against mistakes and unintented transactions being executed. the information from this will inform how we build full automation which will be guided by set by account policies and address whitelists.

@smann Please share the demo link and any website that has already been developed.
