I’ve been playing with a lot of “AI + DeFi” platforms lately and most of them share the same problem: send funds then hope the bot doesn’t rug.. ​ Luckily, @almanak stood out because it flips that model completely 👌 ​ This post is a breakdown of what I've learned about what Almanak is actually trying to build, how the wallet system works and why this structure might matter more than any “AI narrative” headline. ◢ What Almanak really is ⁉️ ​ Forget the buzzwords for a second. What Almanak is building is an AI agent layer for DeFi, for ez interaction: ​ ▸Automated strategies ▸Able to execute 24/7 ▸Adapting to market conditions ▸While you, not the bot, remain the owner of the funds ​ They're trying to make DeFi feel less like juggling tabs, farms, and gas fees.. and more like setting a system in motion, then letting it run. ​ Just in short, rn Almanak gives you: ​ ▸Deployments: automated execution ▸Strategies: decision logic ▸Vaults: turn strategies into investable products ▸Wallets: full control without giving up custody ​ ➥ The AI layer is still growing, but the foundation is already in place, and that’s the part most people overlook. ◢ How to create your Almanak Wallet ⁉️ ​ Step-by-step (the real flow): ​ ▸ Go to the Almanak Dashboard → Deploy dropdown → Wallets ​ ▸ Click “Create Wallet” ​ ▸ Name your wallet + Select the network ​ Pick a chain where you have at least $5 of native gas. ​ I chose $ETH but ofc ETH may require more, then you could choose BNB instead ​ ▸ Review the details → Click Create Wallet ​ ▸ Sign the 3 transactions: Create Wallet - Add Modules - Delegate Access These set up your Safe and permission framework. ​ ▸ Top up fees. It costs not too much, gas fees cannot be withdrawn btw ​ ▸ Fund the wallet with the assets your strategy needs ​ Done. You now have a fully functional Almanak Wallet, and ready for Deployments to use safely. It takes a few minutes because the wallet is fully on-chain and built with Safe infrastructure. ​ ◢ So, how the wallet works ⁉️ ​ Here’s the part that won me over. Most “automation platforms” work like this: ​ You deposit funds -> bot controls them -> you hope it doesn’t rug. Like gambling.. ​ → Almanak flips it. The architecture is basically: ​ 🟢 You own the wallet: You can revoke access at any time. 🟢 The agent helps you grant permissions to run only what YOU whitelist 🟢 If something breaks, you still own the vault ​ ➥ That’s the difference between running automation and surrendering custody. It sounds nerdy, but I think this model will become the default. Almanak is one of the first platforms I’ve seen designing around that reality instead of ignoring it.
