On-chain AI tokens continue to bleed, with a market cap decline significantly higher than the market average. Most tokens that have risen against the trend have undergone narrative changes.Author: Nan Zhi, Odaily Planet Daily
In the past three days, Bitcoin has dropped from a high of 102,724 USDT to a low of 91,203 USDT, causing a significant decline in the entire crypto market, especially in the AI sector on the Solana chain, where a large number of second-tier tokens have been eliminated.
In previous downturns, most users focused on which tokens were the most resilient in CEX, but recently DEX has become one of the main battlegrounds, particularly in the AI sector on the Solana and Base chains. Therefore, this article will take some leading tokens on Solana, Base, and BSC as research subjects to showcase their performance during this downturn.
(Odaily Planet Daily Note: Whether to choose to bottom out during the decline or to chase tokens that are rising against the trend is up to the readers to judge; this article serves only as data integration and reference.)
Basic Information
Time Range: From the highest point of Bitcoin on January 7, 2025, at 8 AM, to 8 AM today. The current market value is around 12 PM today.
Token Range: A total of 25 AI concept tokens from pump.fun on Solana, 7 AI concept tokens from Virtuals Protocol on Base, and some tokens from Binance Alpha on BSC.
Data Source: CEX tokens are sourced from Binance spot, and DEX tokens are sourced from TradingView.
Data Situation
Bitcoin has dropped by 9.47% in 72 hours, while the total market capitalization of the crypto market has decreased from 3.76 trillion to 3.37 trillion, a decline of 10.3%, indicating that the decline of altcoins outside of Bitcoin is not significant.
On Solana, we have counted 25 tokens, with an average change of -0.4%, showing a small decline. However, in terms of total market capitalization, these 25 tokens started with a market value of 5.06 billion USD and ended with a market value of 4 billion USD, a decline of 20.6%. From these two data points, it can be inferred that large-cap tokens are losing value, while some small-cap tokens have achieved significant growth.
On Base, the average decline of the 7 tokens is 19.9%, with market capitalization dropping from 1.16 billion USD to 890 million USD, a decline of 23%. This indicates that all are declining, with no tokens going against the trend.
What Are the Tokens Going Against the Trend Doing?
- AVA: Originally an AI Agent launched by Holoworld AI, it will soon launch Holoworld Launchpool, allowing AVA holders to receive Launchpool token allocations (i.e., BNB logic).
- pippin: A framework is about to be launched (narrative upgrade).
- MAX: Launching the Launch platform agents(dot)land, MAX can be staked to earn rights and tokens.
- BUZZ: No narrative changes at this time.
- BUILD: No narrative changes at this time.
In summary, these tokens going against the trend are making their narratives more grandiose, which can effectively drive a wave of increases regardless of whether they are realized. Readers are advised to continue paying attention to the narrative changes of leading tokens.
