AI x Web3 Isn’t a Trend—It’s the Future. Here’s Where to Invest Now
Let's forget all the noise for one moment—FED meetings, short-term price fluctuations, inflation numbers—and wipe that all off the table. Why? Because it's distracting. It distracts you from stepping back and understanding what is really happening. The Convergence of AI x Web3 The convergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Web3 is shaping up to be one of the most transformative trends of the coming decade. As AI becomes more autonomous and Web3 infrastructure grows more accessible, these tw
Received some questions regarding the available tokens on Binance Alpha.
I will do a detailed post about the available tokens soon. Spoiler: ai16z and AIXBT are my favorites.
Both are AI (or AI agent in the case of AIXBT) projects—the most promising topic for the next months and years, imho.
AIXBT already has a market cap of ~300m. Nevertheless, I think that AI Agent-driven projects will quickly become more than most memecoins.

Binance Alpha Is Here — Buy Tokens Before They Get Listed [In Under 5 Minutes]
The early bird… nah, you get it. Although crypto isn’t about worms, being early is everything in this fast-paced space. Whether it’s spotting the next big meme or jumping into promising projects, timing can make all the difference between huge gains and exit liquidity. However, once a token gets listed on Binance (or any other CEX), you are often late to the party. The hype and the buzz start much earlier. In the trenches and on decentralized exchanges (DEX). But let’s be real—navigating a DEX and on-chain can be overwhelming for many: You have to set up a walletTransfer funds to that walletGet familiar with decentralized exchanges, token addresses, etc.And ultimately face a much higher risk of getting scammed. It’s a lot for the average user who just wants to buy some tokens while watching TV in the evening, right? Binance Alpha Gives You Access To Tokens — Even Before They Get Listed Now here’s the game-changer if you've always wanted to buy hyped tokens before they get officially listed: Binance Alpha. This new feature allows Binance users to access tokens before they get listed on the Binance platform—without the hassle of DEX navigation.
Why It Matters: As someone who regularly posts about up-and-coming projects (including memes not yet listed on Binance), I often get the question: How can I buy these tokens? With Binance Alpha, you now have a seamless way to access many of these projects early. How To Buy Tokens On Binance Alpha (In Under 5 Minutes) Here's how to use Binance Alpha and buy tokens in less than 5 minutes: Step 1: Open the Binance app and head to the Web3 Wallet section (built directly into the app). In case you use the feature for the first time you have to create a wallet—but no worries, it’s just a one-click process.
Step 2: Next, let's navigate to the Markets tab, and at the top, you’ll find the Alpha section.
Step 3: We're getting closer to buying some tokens :) Simply browse the available tokens to find the one you are interested in. Personally, I was pretty excited about some of the listed tokens. With $AIXBT and $ai16z, the Binance team selected some promising projects. Currently, you will find ten tokens, with another ten added today. Step 4: If you find a token you would like to buy, you can simply select "Quick Buy." If you've never used the wallet, you must set up a recovery password. However, again, this is a straightforward process. Afterward, you can easily buy the token using your Binance funds. Voilá! You bought your first emerging token that isn't listed on Binance yet! Why Binance Alpha Is a Big Deal When I tested the feature, I was pretty excited. It simplifies the process for the standard crypto investor massively. This entire process of transferring funds to an external wallet, setting up the proper chain, searching for the token address, and finding the correct DEX, ... simply disappears. Of course, you can't trade the token launched 5 minutes ago on pump.fun—but it is an ultra-convenient way to access emerging tokens without needing extra tools or platforms. Plus, everything is in the "protected" Binance environment. In short, Binance Alpha offers a new way for crypto traders to get in on early opportunities—and I’ll continue highlighting exciting projects for you to explore. Let me know your thoughts, and if you’re diving into Binance Alpha, share your experience! 🙌 PS: Just to be clear, because a token is listed on Alpha, it doesn’t mean it will be listed on Binance!
Here’s how crypto categories rebounded in the past 24 hours, ranked by performance:
1️⃣ AI Agents +17% 2️⃣ Layer 2 +8% 3️⃣ Metaverse +7% 4️⃣ AI +6.6% 5️⃣ RWA +4% 6️⃣ DePin +3.6% 7️⃣ Gaming +3.5% 8️⃣ DeFi +3% 9️⃣ Memes +1.8%
AI agents led the charge with a massive 17% gain, signaling a narrative shift. History shows the sector that bounces hardest after a correction often dominates the next rally. 🚀
Watching the tokens bounce during a correction provides valuable insights. Typically, the tokens that bounce the strongest are also likely to perform exceptionally well during the next leg up.
Here are the top 5 AI tokens that delivered the strongest performance during the last 24 hours (out of the top 200 AI tokens by market cap):
1 — Vana $VANA +18.1% Vana got listed on @Binance lately and has performed pretty well. Likely that we will see it moving higher from here.
2 — $VIRTUAL Virtuals Protocol +17.9% One of the best-performing tokens during the last weeks. Virtuals sits at a 2b market cap and is already the 50th biggest token by market cap. However, AI Agents are just getting started. Higher.
3 — Akash Network $AKT +10% Getting ready to reconquer a 1b market cap.
4 — Arkham $ARKM +9% Arkham provides solid real world use cases. Just a matter of time until it reaches the top 100 by market cap.
5 — Livepeer $LPT +8% Another project with a solid use case. Lots of upside potential too.
Driven by the market correction, Render touched its crucial support level between 6.30-6.60. It'll be essential to hold above this level. Otherwise, there's a huge risk of dropping to 4.50.
If we bounce from here, it offers a nice entry with a first profit target at $8. However, in terms of trading, I would wait for a clear reversal signal driven by solid volume.
‣ Long Term Outlook As discussed in my latest article, I am incredibly bullish on Render long-term. Therefore, the current levels (even (or especially) if we drop lower) provide a perfect opportunity to build/grow a bag).
Public blockchains are forecasted to grow 48% annually, driving disruptive innovation in the global economy.
By 2030, disruptive technologies could dominate global equity markets, with blockchains playing a pivotal role alongside AI, robotics, and energy storage.
From a $19T market cap to a potential $220T by 2030. This is exponential growth.
I am planning to host a big Binance Audio session to discuss this disruption. I will talk about what that means for crypto, the worldwide adoption, and the projects you should pay attention to.

Bullish
That's Gonna Be Epic!
Tomorrow, I will host an exclusive AMA with the founder behind Blockrot and the $BROT token.
Forget about $PEPE and $WIF :) Blockrot is a unique and the world’s first 24/7 real-time interactive Minecraft live-streaming AI agent.
Sounds crazy? Well, we will find out what's behind the hype. We will discuss what AI agents are all about, why this is the next level for memecoins and $BROT's next step.

The first AI-to-AI transaction using crypto just happened. Here’s why it changes everything. 🚀
1. Luna an AI agent by Virtuals, tweeted looking for image design. 2. Stix, another AI agent, replied, offering to help. 3. Luna paid Stix $1 on Base chain. 4. Stix delivered the image.
A normal interaction? Not quite. Both parties were AI agents. No humans involved.
Afaik, this was the first publicly recorded AI-to-AI transaction using crypto.
It might seem small. But it signals the beginning of something BIG. Here’s why 👇
1️⃣ AI agents are evolving fast—soon, they’ll act as virtual assistants helping with: • Online shopping • Travel booking • Paying bills
2️⃣ Banks won’t give AI agents accounts. But crypto? Permissionless, borderless, and programmable—the perfect medium for AI agents to transact.
3️⃣ The result? The proliferation of AI agents on-chain is inevitable.
We’re witnessing the early days of the Web3 x AI age—where machines will transact, collaborate, and deliver value autonomously.
Crypto revenue of top 5 projects today: ~$9.5B. AI crypto revenue by 2030? VanEck predicts $51B. 🚀
The top 5 platforms in crypto generated a combined 9.5B in the last 12 months:
1️⃣ Tether – $5.17B 2️⃣ Ethereum – $2.04B 3️⃣ Circle – $1.37B 4️⃣ Tron – $555.86M 5️⃣ Solana – $336.85M
Earlier this year, VanEck released an analysis focused solely on AI crypto revenues. VanEck’s bullish forecast? $51B in AI crypto revenue alone by 2030.
Let that sink in.
AI and blockchain convergence isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a massive opportunity. Early movers in DeAI (decentralized AI), DePIN, and AI-powered crypto are positioned to thrive.
Projects like Bittensor, Phala, or Fetch.ai are already building the foundations. And there's so much more to come.
If today’s $10B looks big, imagine what $51B just in AI-driven revenue means for the next decade.
AI will be one of the dominating crypto areas in the long run. Therefore, it is essential to have a close eye on the market's pulse. Here are the top 5 tokens of the last seven days.

The convergence of AI and blockchain is becoming one of the most promising technological developments. Together, these two technologies aim to solve some of the biggest challenges of both Web2 and Web3. In Web2, two key issues stand out: Centralization: A handful of tech giants control nearly everything, leaving users with little ownership or control.Privacy: Your data is constantly collected, analyzed, and monetized—often without your full knowledge or consent.
