As Web3 and AI technologies continue to integrate, cryptocurrency exchange BYDFi has recently launched three promising AI concept tokens—VIRTUAL, CLANKER, and GRIFFAIN—offering global investors a chance to tap into emerging markets.

VIRTUAL: A Force in the AI Agent Ecosystem

Recognized by Grayscale as one of the “Top 20 High-Growth Potential Tokens,” VIRTUAL, the native token of Virtuals Protocol, has gained significant traction. Currently, VIRTUAL boasts a market cap of $3.4 billion, ranking 43rd among cryptocurrencies. According to GMGN data, it consistently tops the rankings of tokens on the BASE blockchain. At the time of writing, VIRTUAL trades at $3.49, showing a 30-day ROI of 117% and a remarkable surge of 23,757.6% over the past year. Notably, Lookonchain monitoring reveals that 19 days ago, an investor purchased 4.25 million VIRTUAL tokens for 10 million USDC at an average price of $2.39 per token. These tokens are now valued at $21.5 million.

VIRTUAL’s market performance is largely attributed to the rapid growth of the AI Agent ecosystem. As a leading project in this space, Virtuals Protocol is emerging as a “production factory” for decentralized AI Agents, providing strong support for their development and deployment.

“We have launched over 11,000 AI agents to date, with more than 140,000 Virtuals token holders and cumulative revenue exceeding $35 million,” said Jansen Teng, co-founder of Virtuals Protocol, adding, “We are exploring various use cases for autonomous AI agents (Autonomous Agents), including applications on social media platforms like TikTok.”

CLANKER: A ‘Dark Horse’ in the Token Market

Clanker is an AI token issuance platform based on Farcaster that aims to simplify the process of issuing token assets. The project was developed by Jack Dishman, a full-stack engineer at Farcaster, and ecosystem developer @proxystudio.eth. Notably, Clanker's first meme token is CLANKER itself. At the time of writing, it is priced at $73.96, boasting a market capitalization of $73.33 million.

Previously, Clanker co-founder @proxystudio.eth responded to MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay, revealing that the team is upgrading the Clanker smart contract to allow users to directly claim a 40% revenue share (including ETH and tokens).

GRIFFAIN: An AI Solution on the Solana Blockchain

Griffain is an innovative project in the Solana ecosystem that aims to perform almost any task theoretically by harnessing the unique synergy between cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence. Based on use cases shared on the social platform X, Griffain’s capabilities go beyond those of traditional chatbots. Users can directly purchase alcoholic beverages via Griffain and complete transactions using cryptocurrency or other payment methods—all within the chat interface. Additionally, Griffain can assist users in selecting and purchasing Christmas gifts, offering a seamless, one-stop shopping experience without leaving the chat window.

Being one of the closest projects to the “Agentic APP” concept, Griffain has garnered support from various influencers in the Solana ecosystem. According to the latest market data, its native token once reached a market capitalization of $400 million, pulling back a bit now, with a token price of $0.289.
