About 3Commas
3Commas is a crypto trading automation platform launched in 2017. Users connect exchange accounts with read-and-trade API keys and the platform places orders by preset rules, with withdrawal permission never granted to it. It addresses the difficulty of executing a plan by hand: recurring buys, averaging and exits are easily broken by emotion during volatility. Mechanics include DCA bots with a base order and a sequence of safety orders governed by price deviation, volume scale and step scale; grid bots that re-quote inside a range; and signal bots driven by TradingView webhooks. Strategies backtest on one-minute candles, and filled deals are managed through Smart Trade with trailing take-profit and scaled exits.
More than 18 exchanges are supported across spot, margin and perpetuals, with multiple accounts and pairs managed from one panel and a portfolio view consolidating positions and P&L. Against exchange-native bots the difference is cross-venue execution and finer order control; against custodial copy-trading, funds stay in the user's own exchange account. In 2022 its API key handling was phished, exposing keys for about 6,000 users that were then used for pump-and-dump trading, after which the platform moved to per-user salted encryption and compensated part of the losses.
Founded in 2017 in Tallinn, Estonia, by Yuriy Sorokin and co-founders, 3Commas began as a non-custodial crypto trading automation platform . In November 2020, it raised a $3M Series A led by Alameda Research, surpassing 100,000 active traders and $12B in annual trading volume . In September 2022, a $37M Series B led by Target Global, Alameda Research, Jump Crypto and Dmitry Tokarev accelerated its AI/ML trading bot development and backed the launch of DeFi subsidiary DeCommas . Later, 3Commas surpassed one million registered users and $400B in cumulative trading volume . In April 2026, it launched QuantPilot, a no-code agentic AI platform for crypto strategy development, backtesting and research, marking a long-term shift toward democratizing institutional-grade quantitative trading tools .
On 11 September 2026 3Commas shut down its V1 trading platform and every bot running on it, moving users to a V2 built with WunderTrading. Strategies do not migrate automatically, exchange API connections must be re-established, and the V1 mobile apps retired with the platform. Orders already resting on exchanges were not cancelled by the shutdown, a point the migration guide repeats.
3Commas' V2 reshuffles the workflow: indicator-driven DCA stays in DCA Bot, strategies triggered by TradingView or an API move into Signal Bot, and SmartTrade becomes a Terminal spanning multiple accounts and exchanges, with Hyperliquid now supported. QuantPilot, live since 2 April, generates, backtests and runs strategies from natural language and is the AI-side flagship. A forced migration is a harsh filter: users who can reconnect APIs and rebuild strategies stay, while those relying on hosting and copy trading often leave. Natural-language strategy generation lowers the barrier but pushes backtest quality into the spotlight, and without transparent data and slippage assumptions an AI-built strategy is overfitting in a new wrapper.
3Commas will bind QuantPilot to V2's hosting, rebuild trust through AI-assisted strategy creation, and let compliance and audit work offset the damage from the 2022 API key incident.
