AI Agents in Crypto: An overview

Cover image for AI Agents in Crypto: An overview
There is a growing interest in AI-driven blockchain solutions. Crypto AI agents are autonomous protocols designed to perform tasks such as interacting with blockchains, managing portfolios, and trading on decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms.

Leading AI-focused crypto projects include:

Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (FET):
This alliance is a collective formed by Fetch.ai (FET), SingularityNET (AGIX), and Ocean Protocol (OCEAN). All together, they aim to promote creativity, openness, and inclusivity in the creation of advanced AI technologies by combining their resources and knowledge. The approach is to promote decentralized AI development using Fetch.ai's autonomous agents, SingularityNET's open-source AGI initiatives, and Ocean Protocol's secure data exchange framework.

Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL):
Virtuals Protocol is pushing the boundaries of AI and blockchain to create more immersive and interactive digital experiences with autonomous AI agents. They aim to become the leading decentralized network for AI agents, offering users the ability to create and launch their own. A popular use of Virtuals is the creation of digital avatars focusing on music and entertainment.

ai16z (AI16Z):
This project combines the adaptability of AI with the security and transparency of blockchain technology to create a robust ecosystem for crypto investments. It leverages the strengths of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) within the Solana blockchain. The project uses Eliza framework for developing autonomous AI agents that interact with social media, browse the web, and autonomously trade tokens.
