Hummingbot is an open-source software framework for building and running algorithmic crypto trading bots and fleets of AI trading agents. Hummingbot's Twitter Score is 71 out of 1000 (a Good rating) as of September 2026, ranking #11,514 (top 5%) among 486,860 tracked accounts.
Hummingbot was co-founded by Michael Feng, Carlo Las Marias, and Martin Kou as locally installed client software, not a blockchain protocol or exchange. It was previously affiliated with CoinAlpha, which spun off Hummingbot Foundation in December 2021 as a not-for-profit organization to support decentralized maintenance and community governance of the codebase. The Foundation administers governance through HBOT, an ERC-20 token on Ethereum whose sole stated use is governance of the Foundation and codebase, with a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens set at genesis with no additional issuance planned.
Hummingbot supports connectors for centralized order-book exchanges, decentralized order-book exchanges, and AMM decentralized exchanges and aggregators. Official repositories are open-sourced under Apache 2.0 or MIT licenses, and the project remains actively maintained, with version 2.15.1 released on June 22, 2026. In April 2026, Hummingbot Foundation introduced Condor, an open-source harness that connects large language models to Hummingbot trading infrastructure, enabling natural-language trading, bot management, and autonomous agents that observe markets, reason about strategies, and execute trades by separating probabilistic LLM reasoning from deterministic execution.
