AI AGENT/DeFAI COMEBACK? π π AI Agent / DeFAI has a total MC of ~$7.34B and 113M TVL across more than 1,472 projects. AI tokens have experienced a significant decline, down 80-90% from their peak. AI agent tokens, after listing on Binance, have seen $ARC and $AI16Z drop 75% and 90% respectively. Smart money has moved into projects with "real-world use cases." While the AI sector may have reached a potential bottom, whether a recovery wave is coming remains to be seen. Here's what we should look at π

Potential Catalysts for AI/DeFAI Hype to Resurface: β Market Cycle Momentum Historically, sectors like #DeFi (2020-21) and NFTs (2021) were hype cycles that lasted 6-12 months, followed by a significant correction and eventual recovery. AI Agents began gaining attention in November 2024, and we are still in the early phase of the cycle. If there is a recovery, I predict it will gain momentum starting around Q3 2025. β Utility & Tech Adoption Projects with clear utility (for example: $VIRTUALβs $2.8B ecosystem or $AIXBTβs massive trading volume) are performing better than speculative AI tokens. The ability of agents to automate DeFi trading, manage portfolios, and assist human decision-making could drive natural growth. If projects like $ARC or $GRIFFAIN deliver on their promised features (e.g., integrating RIG toolkits, enhancing yield prediction), this utility-based growth could capture market attention.

AI AGENT/DeFAI's decline is understandable given the broader market sentiment. However, the focus on real-world use cases suggests a shift towards more practical applications. Keeping an eye on projects that have tangible implementations could be a smart move. Let's see if smart money's migration leads to a resurgence.
