“Do you want to be right or do you want to make money”

99% of it is a scam and the AI agent wrapper grifts are probably worse than other past trends tbh.

bc at least meme coins promise nothing whereas AI coins try to larp as much as possible to appear legit to unsuspecting…

Whilе AI аgеnt tokеns continuе to аttrаct both invеstors аnd dеtrаctors, thеir volаtilе trаjеctory suggеsts both opportunity аnd risk. Whеthеr thеy rеprеsеnt thе futurе of crypto or аnothеr flееting trеnd rеmаins uncеrtаin, but for now, thеy’rе rеshаping thе mаrkеt nаrrаtivе.

2024 Crypto Survey Reveals Memecoins and AI Tokens as Top Picks for 2025

December 20, 2024 by Usman Zafar

  • Memecoins top the list of held tokens among Binance users, surpassing Bitcoin.
  • AI tokens are seen as the most promising for 2025 growth.
  • New crypto adopters are showing cautious optimism, with 45% joining in 2024.

As 2024 draws to a close, Binance surveyed over 27,000 users worldwide to assess their crypto expectations for 2025. The survey revealed a surprising trend: memecoins have surpassed Bitcoin as the most held tokens in users’ wallets. Approximately 16.1% of participants reported holding memecoins, while Bitcoin trailed behind at 14.44%.

Even while Bitcoin leads the broader market, users increasingly get drawn to the volatility and excitement that memecoins bring. This may be indicative of investor sentiment, whereby users look for high-risk, high-reward opportunities.

Beyond Memecoins, AI Tokens Lead the Charge for 2025

In return, the coming year is expected to bring significant changes in the crypto world. As many as 23.89% of those who participated strongly believe that AI tokens will represent the biggest growth market next year. What is even more exciting, this class of assets now is considered the most preferred in 2025, followed by memecoins at 19.09%.

This reflects strong confidence in AI tokens and shows the growing interest of users in technology-driven investment. According to many users, more institutional involvement will take place in mainstream blockchain applications next year.

New Adopters and Their Growing Involvement

It also highlighted a wave of new crypto adopters in the market, as 45% of the surveyed joined this year. Meanwhile, as much as a portion of the new users is still catching up, an equal distribution of the other users fall into a time frame between one to five years, thereby meaning that a proper mix exists within the Binance community.

Most of the new entrant inflow has been for financial independence and rapid appreciation, but for 22.4%, it’s the hope for quick gains that makes them enter into this market.

Against this background of optimism, however, 43.97% of those surveyed have kept their crypto investments below 10% of their wealth, showing that there is caution tempered with optimism. All in all, the results from Binance are indicative of an active, confident, and ever-growing community looking to 2025 with hope and expectation.

Crypto-AI Conundrum: Coinbase Research Flags Overstated Value Potential

March 9, 2024 by Ammar Raza

Recently, Coinbase research has issued a cautionary note about AI token overpricing, implying that price surge could be more hype than actual utility. The report states that cryptocurrencies and artificial intelligence intersect at various points creating a range of opportunities and development timelines with decentralization alone insufficient to provide competitive advantage for products based on AI.

Diverse Opportunities In The Intersection Of AI and Crypto

The report underlines that AI tokens must be able to compete with centralized ones in key areas for them to continue being sought after. Although there are some exceptional gains recorded in the sphere of AI, especially generative AI, which have attracted a lot of attention and opened up possibilities for encryption schemes, this technology faces challenges making it difficult to be adopted in many places.

Given the fast changes in artificial intelligence, the report points out that there is ambiguity concerning how long AI tokens will accumulate value over time in a sustainable way, particularly those on fixed tokenomic models. Additionally, potential emerging trends in AI can hinder the acceptance of digital currency-based innovations amidst heightened competition among market participants and regulatory barriers.

However, notwithstanding such problems, the investor craving for AI-related coins nevertheless persists compellingly through overhyped performative AI market headlines. The report shows that even when Bitcoin trading drops a bit, artificial intelligence tokens could serve as proxies to represent progress in AI.

Moreover, the report identifies some of the essential developments which take part in shaping AI. They include superior quality and best cost performances of smaller AI models, competitive advantages from integration with existing platforms by means of artificial intelligence, and transition of computational usage from training to inferencing.

Additionally, the report stresses the significance of open-sourcing models, which have so far encouraged collaboration and competition among the AI community. This is coupled with a discussion on hardware architecture competition involving Nvidia and Google who have made significant strides in developing processors targeting AI.

Despite the promising potential of crypto in AI, the report advises caution. This is because it notes that crypto’s role in AI does not exist alone and must fight against existing centralized alternatives and regulatory requirements.

In order for crypto-based solutions to gain meaningful adoption, they would need to address critical obstacles and compete head-to-head with centralized platforms. On the whole, the report suggests that while AI and crypto have a lot in common, there still remains promise but its future is uncertain.
