Artificial Superintelligence Alliance
Earlier this year, blockchain networks Fetch.ai, SingularityNET, and Ocean Protocol combined their tokens into one and created an alliance for decentralized AI — or “ASI,” which stands for “artificial superintelligence.” The partnership aimed to provide an alternative to tech giants’ growing control of the AI industry.
With Nvidia’s earnings report due this week, the token has surged over 10% over the past 24 hours and 70% in the last seven days, hovering around $1.3.
Bittensor
Bittensor aims to decentralize machine learning and artificial intelligence by establishing a marketplace for AI as a tradable commodity. Some experts believe that Bittensor is a memecoin that is taking advantage of the hype around AI.
As Nvidia’s earnings report is due this week, Bittensor has risen over 5% in the past 24 hours and over 21% in the past seven days, trading at $345.
Solana
After the Federal Reserve Chair hinted that interest rate cuts may be on the horizon, the crypto market rallied over the weekend and now appears more stable. Among the top performers, Solana continues to trend upward, signaling growing confidence as more traders invest in the platform.
With nearly 2% growth in a day and over 12% in the past week, Solana is hovering around $160.
Tron
Tron has successfully raised its energy cap to 120 billion, a move aimed at boosting network activity and lowering gas fees as meme coin projects gain traction. Tron founder Justin Sun announced the increase on his X page, explaining that it was implemented through Proposal No. 92 to reduce network congestion and transaction costs.
In response, Tron is currently trading at $0.16, up over 4% in a day and over 21% in a week.
FLOKI
The popular memecoin FLOKI is rallying after crypto exchange Binance announced it would support the airdrop for Simon’s Cat (CAT) — another memecoin on the BNB Chain — exclusively for FLOKI holders. In the crypto world, an airdrop is a marketing strategy where small amounts of cryptocurrency are distributed to a wide range of wallet addresses, typically to promote a new token.
FLOKI is up over 2% in the last 24 hours and up over 33% in the last seven days, trading at $0.0001514.
