ChainCatcher message, Primitive Ventures investor Marco Manoppo shared his experience of missing a hundredfold investment opportunity in Virtuals Protocol on X. Marco reflects that despite being exposed to the project early on, he failed to invest in time due to a misjudgment of the trend of the combination of crypto and AI.

He emphasizes that the Virtuals team achieves rapid iteration through cost advantages in Southeast Asia and stands out in the market with a pragmatic business orientation. Marco predicts that by 2025, there will be more fusion of crypto and AI, especially in innovations in AI agent tokenization, consumer applications, and payment fields.
