KLab Begins Final Testing of AI Automatic Trading System Prior to Full-Scale Operation -- Development Enters Final Stage for the Start of Full-ScaleLive Operation --

-- Development Enters Final Stage for the Start of Full-Scale Operation --

KLab Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Tetsuya Sanada; hereinafter "KLab") announced that it has commenced demo trading based on current real-time information for its AI automatic trading system.

KLab announced on February 9, 2026, that it is developing an automatic trading system for financial products utilizing AI (hereinafter referred to as the "AI)." Subsequently, backtesting was conducted by applying the AI to historical Bitcoin price data, confirming a performance approximately 3.4 times higher than the growth rate of Bitcoin prices during the test period.

This demo trading serves as the final test before transitioning to real-world operation using its own funds.
This initiative is proceeding under a structure where BLOCKSMITH&Co. leads the planning and development, and I'mbesideyou Inc. handles the technical development of the AI.

Test Details

Demo trading is a verification method that uses real-time market data to execute buy and sell orders with virtual funds rather than actual capital. This test is intended to provide a final confirmation of the AI's performance through demo trading before moving to real-world operation using its own funds. During this test, the AI predicts price movements based on real-time market information and generates "Buy/Sell" signals. Furthermore, based on those signals, trades are executed using virtual funds without human intervention. This verifies whether the AI functions as expected even in the current market environment.

【Conditions】

• 　Target Asset: Bitcoin
• 　Initial Investment: 5,000 USD
• 　Verification Start: March 13, 2026
• 　Trading Method: Both Buy and Sell (Long/Short)
• 　Leverage: 1x
• 　Fees*: Reflected as costs incurred for each trade

*This test accounts for costs that may occur with each trade (such as transaction fees) to verify performance in a manner close to actual operation. As this is a simulated trade, chart data, order books, and execution conditions may differ from actual trading, and the reproduction of costs may not perfectly match real-world operation.

Future Development

KLab was founded as a research and development company for mobile software and subsequently grew primarily through its mobile game business. Starting from fiscal year 2025, the company has designated AI as one of its priority businesses and is proceeding with the research, development, and business consideration of numerous AI systems, including those not yet announced. The AI is one of these initiatives; following the start of asset management using its own funds in 2026, the company aims for commercialization in 2027.

The AI targets financial products that circulate borderless (such as Bitcoin and foreign exchange), and the service provision will target countries worldwide. We will consider the countries where the service will be implemented by taking into account the regulatory legislation and marketing perspectives of each nation. We will continue to provide updates regarding the verification results and development progress of the AI.
