# Introduction

**Monika** is a non-custodial, autonomous DeFi trading agent built natively for **Monad**.

Unlike traditional trading bots that function as "black boxes" requiring you to deposit funds into a centralized contract, Monika operates on a **Client-Side Execution** model. This means she analyzes the market 24/7 in the cloud, but the actual transaction signing happens securely in your local browser environment.

#### Core Features

* **Autonomous Execution:** Automatically detects and executes high-probability setups based on market fractals.
* **Non-Custodial Security:** Your private keys never leave your device. All trades are signed via `ethers.js` in your local environment.
* **Neural Engine:** Powered by a K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm that matches live price action against 10,000+ historical scenarios.
* **Gemini Cognitive Layer:** An integrated AI chat interface that provides real-time, context-aware market analysis.
* **Monad-Native:** Optimized for Monad's sub-second block times, utilizing custom RPC routing for high-frequency updates.

#### Getting Started

To start using Monika, simply connect your wallet to the terminal. 2 Million $MONIKA are required to access the terminal. Once you're in, Monika will generate a new fresh wallet for you, simply send at least 1 USDC and 1 MON to this wallet to start trading.
