Recently, the AI agent sector has shown signs of taking off again. The leading virtual project has already increased by 5x from the bottom, and it recently introduced a staking mechanism to address the previous pain point of AI tokens being useless. It will also activate DAO governance functionality soon, similar to new projects that have emerged in the cryptocurrency space over the years.

AI agent tokens have started to exhibit various economic models, which is a significant boost for the entire sector. Previously, AI agents were treated as memes for speculation, but after experiencing a round of bull and bear markets, older AI projects are becoming legitimate endeavors.

Other AI projects have also seen considerable gains from their bottoms, with AI16Z and AIXBT rebounding over 3x. OG projects like GOAT and ACT, which lie between agents and memes, have rebounded by more than 7x.

Projects like Fartcoin, which are AI memes, have rapidly reached all-time highs, with a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of 1.4B. Many stalwarts of the agent era have been quietly rebounding recently.
