The AI agents market cap has experienced a significant surge, increasing by 12% in the last 24 hours, reaching a total market cap of almost $8 billion. Solana-based agents lead the market with a valuation of $3.86 billion, a 13.66% rise in the last day. Other chains, including Base, also recorded notable gains of 9.27% and 8.75%, respectively.
Market Rebound and Technological Advancements
This uptick in the AI agents’ market cap is a promising development, especially considering the recent decline in the AI agent narrative. The market cap had previously crashed from its $10 billion highs. The rebound may be driven by major technological advancements and strategic moves in the AI sector.
For instance, OpenAI is reportedly designing its own in-house AI chips, reducing its reliance on NVIDIA. The chips will be manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, with the design expected to be finalized in the coming months. This development could fuel the resurgence of crypto projects that depend on AI-based infrastructure.
Caution and Market Uncertainty
However, it may be too early to determine if older AI agent projects will return to their previous highs. Crypto researcher Crypto Stream notes that trying to time the bottom of these tokens is too risky, though it could also be highly profitable.
“The decline in the AI narrative wasn’t due to a lack of innovation or utility in the space. Instead, market liquidity shifted from AI projects into large-cap altcoins, which caused a crash in the demand for AI tokens.”
