Crypto analyst and mentor Pedro Silva has unveiled a comprehensive multi-model Artificial Intelligence strategy designed to automate market research and identify undervalued cryptocurrency projects ahead of the 2026 market cycle. By integrating specific prompts across Grok, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude, the workflow aims to replace manual technical analysis with an automated "investment committee" capable of generating real-time buy, sell, and hold recommendations.
Key Points
- Multi-Model Ecosystem: The strategy leverages specific strengths of different AI models: Grok for real-time sentiment, Perplexity for deep data dives, Gemini for technical auditing, and Claude for synthesis.
- The "Panic Detector": A specialized prompt designed to identify irrational market fear and security vulnerabilities, which Silva credits for identifying profitable entry points in assets like ZBT.
- Automated Analysis: By using Claude’s browser extension, investors can aggregate data from other models into Google Sheets, creating automated portfolio reports without manual data entry.
- Current Market Sentiment: The AI tools currently describe the market as "boring" and ranging, with specific consolidation noted in Bitcoin and potential entry targets for Ethereum.
The "Investment Committee" Workflow
Silva’s methodology moves beyond simple chatbot queries, establishing a structured pipeline where each AI model performs a specialized role. This approach simulates a professional investment firm's hierarchy, utilizing technology to remove emotional bias from trading decisions.
The workflow begins with Grok, which Silva utilizes for its real-time access to social sentiment on the X platform (formerly Twitter). He employs specific prompts such as the "Panic Detector" and "Bullish/Bearish Explorers" to scan the market for sudden shifts in sentiment or emerging narratives. According to Silva, the Panic Detector is particularly effective at spotting opportunities during moments of market fragility, such as frontend glitches or security scares.
Following initial discovery, the strategy employs Perplexity and Gemini to conduct due diligence. Perplexity is tasked with a "Deep Dive," investigating venture capital backing, anonymous investor movements, and on-chain data. Simultaneously, Gemini acts as a technical auditor—referred to by Silva as the "CTO"—to examine code quality and project viability.
"It acts like a superior investment committee, doing everything for you. In the end, you have a recommendation to strong buy, strong sell, neutral, or hold... It is the exact opposite of boring."
Automating Synthesis with Claude
The final and most critical phase of Silva's strategy involves data synthesis. Rather than manually reading the comprehensive reports generated by Grok, Perplexity, and Gemini, Silva utilizes Claude (specifically the Claude Opus 4.5 model and its Chrome extension) to ingest the raw data.
Through a custom "Builder" prompt, Claude analyzes the gathered intelligence and automatically populates a Google Spreadsheet. This output categorizes assets with clear action items—Buy, Sell, Hold, or Avoid—based on the aggregated data. For example, during the live demonstration, the system flagged the token Curve (CRV) as a "Hold" despite administrative issues, while advising investors to "Avoid" tokens like TrueFi (TRU) based on the criteria set.
AI-Driven Market Outlook
Applying this AI framework to the current market landscape, Silva’s analysis suggests a period of consolidation. The automated sentiment analysis currently detects "zero panic," describing the market environment as stagnant. This lack of emotional volatility often signals a ranging market rather than an immediate breakout or crash.
Key Asset Analysis
- Bitcoin (BTC): Currently trading in a range between $88,000 and $94,500. Silva notes that without a significant geopolitical catalyst, support levels around $88,000 are expected to hold, though the market lacks the buy pressure to break current resistance.
- Ethereum (ETH): The analysis points to a logical retracement. Silva has set limit orders at the $3,000 level, viewing dips as accumulation opportunities for the long term.
- Utility Coins (XRP & XLM): The analysis remains bullish on "utility" assets. XRP is highlighted as a favored asset following recent regulatory developments in the UK, while Stellar (XLM) is showing resilience despite the market lull.
- Solana (SOL): Despite strong on-chain metrics and ecosystem support, price action remains suppressed below $150. Silva advises caution, suggesting the asset needs a new wave of internet-driven hype to break resistance.
Implications for Retail Investors
The shift toward AI-assisted trading represents a significant leveling of the playing field for retail investors. By automating the "grunt work" of reading whitepapers, tracking VC wallet movements, and gauging sentiment, individual traders can manage portfolios with the efficiency of institutional analysts.
However, Silva emphasizes that these tools act as sophisticated assistants rather than infallible decision-makers. The AI provides the data and the recommendation, but the final execution relies on the investor's strategy. For instance, while the AI might flag a project as a "Sell" due to a token unlock event (as noted with the protocol Ondo), the investor must decide if that risk aligns with their timeframe.
Investors looking to adopt this strategy should focus on refining their prompts. Silva notes that users can ask the AI models themselves to "improve this prompt for a technical auditor role," thereby continuously upgrading the quality of the output.
