As technology advances, the cryptocurrency market has evolved with the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), which has also opened up new avenues for enthusiasts to invest. The bifurcation of the AI field has allowed new narratives to enter the market.
BeInCrypto analyzed the story that propelled AI crypto tokens in 2024 and what direction AI crypto tokens could go in 2025.
AI agent
One of the most interesting stories about AI was AI agents. AI agents are intelligent systems designed to analyze the environment, make informed decisions, and take actions to achieve defined objectives. In an interview with BeInCrypto, Nansen research analyst Nikolaj Sondergaard explained the potential of these tokens in 2025.
“One of the key trends I predict is the increasing use of AI agents in various business areas, regardless of size. These agents will be able to interact with customers, analyze data, Applicable to content generation, this technology is particularly advantageous for small and medium-sized businesses that cannot provide human expertise throughout the process, leaving the final quality control to humans. Sondergaard said BeInCrypto told.
An emerging token in this category is Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL), which is up 10,359% year-to-date. This growth has seen the altcoin rise from its lows by $0.029 to $3.141 at the time of writing.
Going forward, unless investors sell, this growth is expected to continue and push VIRTUAL higher. Profit taking could push the price below the $2.021 support and the altcoin could head toward $0.502.
AI meme coin
The demand for meme coins did not spare AI either. This is evidenced by the likes of Turbo (TURBO), which is up 3,000% since the beginning of the year. Since the past few weeks, the altcoin has remained mostly sideways, but we could soon see a breakout above $0.0134.
The narrative hype of AI meme coins has also brought Act 1: The AI Prophecy (ACT), Goatseus Maximus (GOAT), Fartcoin (FARTCOIN), etc. into the limelight rapidly. Thanks to high demand and hype, FARTCOIN was even able to reach a market capitalization of $1.15 billion.
Therefore, heading into 2025, the market is likely to witness the emergence of even more AI meme coins as the two most important narratives continue to find demand: AI and meme coins.
AI-Depin
Artificial intelligence and DePIN are their own exclusive categories within the crypto market, but the latter is influencing the former. The DePIN saga had a huge impact on the cryptocurrency industry later this year.
The same effect was noticeable on AIOZ Network (AIOZ), which posted a 569% gain in 12 months. The altcoin managed to rise above the $1.00 threshold, but is currently trading at $0.95.
Given that the AI-DePIN story is still growing, it will be interesting to see how far it can advance in 2025. AIOZ will be an important token in this category and could move further up the charts if it secures $1.00 as support.
On the other hand, losing the support at $0.92 could cause the altcoin to fall towards $0.55. If that happens, the bullish outlook will be completely invalidated and AIOZ investors will suffer losses.
