As announced on December 5, 2025, an artificial intelligence (AI) model called Mystery Model has been crowned the champion of Alpha Arena, a Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrency trading competition.
Mystery Model, early version of Grok 4.20, Achieved an average return of 12.11% in 2 weeks And won the final. This outperforms models such as GPT-5.1, Gemini 3, and DeepSeek in all scenarios, which are considered the most advanced generative AI models.
The model ran on real capital on Hyperliquid without any human intervention.
In the final round, 32 instances of different models competed using only the same prompt and market data. Among them, ChatGPT, Grok, DeepSeek, Claude, o1, and Gemini stood out. All trades were executed on Hyperliquid. Mystery Model ended with a net profit of $4,844 According to official data, within 14 days.
Alpha Arena founder Jay Azan said the final day of the competition was the culmination of automated intensity. “There are 32 LLM cases managing a total of $320,000 in real capital,” he detailed in X.
These artificial intelligences ingest news, index, and market microstructure data every six minutes and process a constant stream of information in real time. “The only model that has been profitable so far is the Mystery model,” Azan emphasized, highlighting how this AI maintained steady profits while other AIs struggled to stay out of the red in the last 24 hours.
As reported by CriptoNoticias, the experiment began in October when the Alpha Arena platform organized the test. Each model was allocated $10,000 in initial funding.
Azan had previously announced the winners of the preliminary stages of the contest. In the first phase, completed in November, the GPT 5.1 model led in overall performance across all tests. On the other hand, the winner was Qwen 3 Max with a return of 22.3%.
alpha arena is The trend towards the use of AI is increasing For financial analysis. A recent report revealed that Gen Z is also adopting these tools to make investment decisions.
This experiment stands out in that it operates with real capital in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency market, providing concrete data that goes beyond simulation.
