At its heart, Bumper is a revolutionary AI-powered pooled risk market which protects the value of crypto assets from downside volatility and market crashes. Although Bumper shares some similarities with Stop Losses, Options Desk and insurance policies, there are significant differences in Bumper’s architecture, functionality and approach to managing risk.
Bumper's AI engineers are training a state-of-the-art Large Language Model (LLM) with a staggering 70 billion parameters using extensive financial data, including crypto asset price datasets.
Through techniques such as Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), Bumper aims to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of its price prediction algorithms, laying the groundwork for real-time market insights and proactive decision-making.
By leveraging a pre-trained 8 billion parameter Large Language Model (LLM), Bumper can analyse vast amounts of financial Natural Language Processing (NLP) data to gauge market sentiment with unparalleled granularity.
Through fine-tuning and advanced NLP techniques, Bumper gains valuable insights into speculator disposition, allowing for a deeper understanding of market dynamics and trends.
Bumper's AI engineers have pioneered a novel approach to technical analysis by training a Large Language And Vision Assistant (LLAVA).
This multimodal model combines vision-based analysis of price plot images with NLP-driven interpretation of technical indicators, enabling Bumper to make informed decisions based on historical price data and market trends.
Analysis using Bumper’s proprietary Agent-Based Modelling (ABM) forecasts an economic improvement of 5-25% in terms of the protocol’s efficiency to balance the trilemma between Lower Premiums, Higher Yields and Solvency Robustness.
Our Agent-Based Model (ABM) was used in conjunction with AI techniques to create more complex and adaptive simulations. Agents in the ABM system used machine learning algorithms to learn and adapt their behaviour based on past actions, and market changes. The integration of ABM with AI methods led to more sophisticated modelling and simulation capabilities for Bumper.
AI is used throughout the code and smart contract development to iteratively work through code optimisation and protocol performance.
Of most significance Bumper uses a pre-trained Large Language Model to ingest vast amounts of financial text data and broadly categorise sentiment. This critical tool uses advanced classification techniques to identify distinct financial vocabulary. Equipped with attention mechanisms and transformer-based structures, the LLM is able to discern market sentiment and investor behaviour and signal future market trends.
These signals are then fed into premium calculations alongside Price Risk Factor (PRF), Liquidity Risk Factor (LRF)and Risk Rating of Positions (RRP). This frontier tech optimises Bumper’s innovative streamia model and is world-first in connecting LLM technology with smart contracts to offer price protection. Since it has become such a narrative in 2024, we’ve doubled down on efforts to become the first AI-powered Risk Management platform in DeFi.
