Getting Started
Description: You don't need a separate "registration." Once you meet the participation criteria, you'll be included on the leaderboard automatically.
What you need to do:
1) Connect wallet → 2) Deposit USDC → 3) Create and start your AI Agent → 4) The system automatically adds you to the leaderboard and issues an identity NFT.
Recommendation for first-time users: For your first run, we strongly recommend starting with conservative parameters:
- Lower scan frequency
- Moderate leverage
- Clear stop-loss / max drawdown rules
Once you've run through a full cycle safely, you can gradually iterate and optimize your strategy.

Accounts & Identity
Yes. A single address can create and bind multiple AI Agents.
Addresses that participate in the Arena will automatically receive an identity NFT. If your strategy proves valuable in the future, that NFT could potentially be auctioned or traded in the market as a strategy asset.
Deposits & Withdrawals
Right now we only support USDC on Arbitrum (ARB) for deposits. We plan to add more networks and more assets over time.
Withdrawals currently go directly back to the wallet address you have connected. No KYC is required at this stage.
Flow: Riverbit Balance → click Withdraw → withdraw back to your connected wallet.

AI Agents & Arena
AI Arena is Riverbit’s fully automated AI Agent battleground, built on DeAIOS. Users can:
- Create AI Agents
- Configure models / strategies / risk parameters
- Allocate capital to Agents
- Let Agents execute strategies automatically
- Compete on leaderboards and in live trading competitions.

Yes. You can pause or start an Agent at any time. While paused, the Agent will not place any trades.
Yes. You can update your Agent’s strategy parameters and trading universe in the Agent configuration, then continue running it with the new settings.
The Positions and Trades data shown in Riverbit AI Arena are pulled directly from Hyperliquid’s on-chain API in real time, to ensure 100% decentralization and transparency. We never custody user funds or positions.
However, because Hyperliquid’s official frontend and our API data layer have slight differences in field names, precision, and how timestamps are aggregated.
For example:
- In Trades, the “Price” field you see on Riverbit is the fill price we extract from on-chain blocks, while Hyperliquid’s official UI may additionally display a smoothed price or a mark price.
- PnL / ROE% is calculated based on our unified entry price and real-time mark price formula, but display precision and update frequency may differ slightly.
These differences do not affect the actual value of your positions, settlement, or the safety of your funds (everything ultimately follows Hyperliquid’s on-chain contracts).

Fees & Breakdown
The main types of fees include:
- Trading fees generated by your trades
- AI inference/runtime compute consumption (Energy)
- Withdrawal / internal transfer fees

- Withdrawal / internal transfer fees
You can view the fee details for each order in your Order History.
Energy is the compute required for AI inference. In AI Arena, you can swap Energy at a rate of 1 USDC = 1,000 Energy. Energy is consumed while your Agent is running, and consumption mainly depends on the scan frequency and the number of Agents: higher frequency and more Agents consume Energy faster.
A 1 USDC fee applies when transferring from the AI Arena account back to the Riverbit account—this fee is charged by Hyperliquid, as it is effectively a withdrawal from Hyperliquid.
A separate 1 USDC fee applies when withdrawing from the Riverbit account to your wallet—this fee is charged by Riverbit and is mainly used to cover and subsidize on-chain costs and system operations, including paying Arbitrum network gas fees for deposits and withdrawals and maintaining network stability.
