VergeX is partnering with Z.ai to launch the GLM-5 Trading Odyssey, a live trading initiative designed to explore how AI agents perform in real markets.

Unlike simulations or paper trading environments, this initiative operates directly in live market conditions.

Participants will:

• Build trading agents using GLM-5

• Deploy and run strategies on Vergex

• Execute trades in real markets

• Compete based on actual performance

All participants operate on the same model.

Same model. Different outcomes.

Vergex and Z.ai will provide GLM-5 token credits to support participation.

Credits are structured to encourage real usage:

• All users (new and existing) receive 5M GLM-5 tokens at campaign start or upon registration

To retain credits, users must:

• Connect an exchange account

• Run at least one agent

Credits expire within 48 hours if these conditions are not met.

Participants can earn additional credits by:

• Sharing results (PnL / strategies)

• Contributing active strategies

Top-performing participants will receive:

• Additional credits

• Official exposure by Vergex × Z.ai

• A connected exchange account is required

• Minimum balance: ≥50 USDT

This initiative is designed for users engaging in real trading activity.

• Start: March 30, 2026, 00:00 (UTC+8)

• End: April 13, 2026, 00:00 (UTC+8)

• Duration: 14 days

As AI agents become more capable, their effectiveness must be tested beyond controlled environments.

GLM-5 Trading Odyssey provides a structured environment for real market validation.

Participants can begin by building and deploying their first agent.

VergeX is an AI trading harness layer that turns human intent into AI generated strategies, executed safely by AI agents in real markets.

Z.ai, founded in 2019, is a leading foundation model company behind GLM model series. GLM-5 ranks #1 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index among all open-source models while GLM-5.1, soon to be open-sourced, delivers a 50% performance boost over its predecessor.
