Automated portfolio rebalancing with Glider
How Privy powers agentic wallets for effortless crypto portfolio management

Managing a crypto portfolio today is still far too complex. Assets live across different chains, each with its own wallet, bridge, and liquidity pool. Moving between them means juggling smart contracts, approvals, and gas fees. Even minor portfolio rebalancing can take hours of manual effort and carries the risk of costly mistakes.
The end result is that investing feels broken and hard to do, when it should simply follow your lead, without the hassle.
Glider makes investing in onchain assets as easy as trading stocks. Instead of dealing with contracts and wallets, investors only have to set their objective once. From then on, Glider works automatically in the background, changing allocations, moving positions, and reacting to the market in real time.
“Other crypto investing apps still feel like tools you need to fight with. Glider feels like an experience that works for you, continuously.” – Shimron (Wynter), Head of Marketing at Glider
How it works
Glider simplifies portfolio management by combining automation, market awareness, and secure non-custodial infrastructure. Investors define their intent once, and the system carries out the strategy without requiring further intervention.
Here are a few core features of Glider:
Automate portfolios with accuracy: With Glider, investors make portfolios that automatically rebalance at set times(whether minutes, hours, days or even every block) or after any trigger (like market movements, tweets, and yield changes). Glider's AI-powered engine makes sure that allocations change exactly as planned, without the need for ongoing monitoring.
Dynamic portfolios that evolve with the market: It's hard to pick tokens to buy and sell when trends change every day. With Glider's Dynamic Block, customers define criteria for things like market cap, liquidity, or volume. After that, Glider detects matches and updates portfolios in real time.
Access to liquidity: Glider constantly maps and accesses liquidity across chains, making sure that deals happen at the optimal pricing without investors having to navigate across different liquidity pools.
How Privy comes in
Glider’s vision is to deliver portfolios that run themselves without ever compromising user control. To do that, it needed infrastructure that could authorize automated execution while keeping assets in self-custody.
That’s where Privy comes in.
Privy makes that possible. With session signers, Glider can securely execute rebalances and trades on behalf of users without exposing private keys or taking custody of funds. Each user has a self-custodial smart wallet, and session keys enable Glider’s agentic layer to act in real time, safely and seamlessly.
This results in the following benefits:
Continuous automation without repeated prompts.
True self-custody, with assets always in user-owned wallets.
Agent-ready infrastructure designed for autonomous execution at scale.
By abstracting away wallet creation, authentication, and key management, Privy allows Glider to focus entirely on delivering a fluid investing experience.
“Privy makes it simple for anyone to start investing without the usual crypto headaches. Wallet creation, key management, authentication, it all melts into the background. That was important for us, because we want people to focus on building portfolios, not wrestling with setup. Privy gave us a way to deliver that smooth experience from day one.” – Brian Huang, Co-founder of Glider
What’s next for Glider
Glider is expanding past beta, and its objective is to make automated, intent-based investing the standard way for consumers to manage their onchain portfolios.
Coming soon:
Deeper strategies that incorporate yield, staking, and new token launches, continuously optimizing in the background.
Broader reach with support for more chains and markets, so portfolios can follow opportunity anywhere.
Agent-first expansion, which lets Glider's infrastructure power not only its own app but also any agent, wallet, or platform that wants to include intent-based investment.
Privy’s multichain wallet infrastructure ensures portfolios can take advantage of opportunities across different ecosystems, while prebuilt recipes for yield integrations with protocols like Morpho and Aave unlock more sophisticated strategies.
We’re excited to support Glider as it brings this new form of intent-based investing to life, and cannot wait to see what else can be made possible through the combination of onchain infrastructure and AI.
