AI token market capitalization soars

Other major AI-related cryptocurrencies, such as Fetch.ai’s native token, FET, are up more than 5% in the last 24 hours. Fetch.ai focuses on using AI and machine learning to automate business tasks, especially in data processing and trading.
In an interview with The Block about the recent surge in AI token prices, Fetch.ai CEO and founder Humayan Sheikh said he expects the global use of AI to grow exponentially, impacting the blockchain industry. “The decentralized architecture of blockchain technology in particular makes it well-suited to AI applications and sets the stage for widespread adoption of blockchain, which until now has largely been limited to financial applications,” said Sheikh.
Fetch.ai founders pointed out that the complexity of the web3 user interface is a major factor contributing to the relatively slow adoption of blockchain applications in mainstream use. “In response, AI brings powerful automation capabilities to space, fostering innovation and opening the door to the development of a variety of applications that can be built on blockchain,” Sheikh added.
The surge in prices in the AI-related cryptocurrency sector comes as the broader market has been slowly rising, with the GMCI 30 index rising from 104 to 113 last week.
