- AI crypto tokens rebound 33% as memecoins and AI agents dominate 2025’s bull run
- $TAI, $FARTCOIN, and $TRUMP Coin lead surging interest across speculative crypto sectors
- Investors split on AI agents’ trading potential as demand for real-world crypto utility grows
The AI crypto sector is making a strong comeback, with its total market value climbing over 33% in just the last two weeks. That’s a sharp reversal after a tough stretch for AI-related tokens.
Earlier this year, in January, AI crypto projects reached a record-high market cap of $70.42 billion; however, the sector since faced correction, falling to about $21 billion by April 9. Still, fresh numbers from CoinGecko shows that AI tokens captured 35.7% of all investor attention in Q1 2025. That’s even more than meme coins, which took a 27.1% share.
As it stays, AI and meme coins now account for a combined 62.8% of total crypto market attention, confirming their continued dominance in the crypto space.
Several AI tokens have posted massive gains, with $TAI soaring by an impressive 234% in the past week alone. Other tokens like $TAOBOT, $ZEREBRO, and $TURBO have also seen their prices jump by around 150% each.
Memecoins Making Their Comeback As Well
Meme coins are also making a strong comeback. Dogecoin has risen over 11% in a week, while Pepe Coin, a frog-themed token, increased nearly 15%, now trading at $0.0000090.

Solana’s $TRUMP Coin is drawing fresh attention, fueled in part by cultural buzz following the Trump dinner event. Meanwhile, $FARTCOIN has lived up to its viral hype, surging 35% since late October, rising from $0.75 to $1.16.
Can AI Bots Beat Humans in Crypto Trading?
The rise of AI tokens isn’t just about price action; it’s sparking debates around AI trading agents too.
In a recent survey, nearly half of the participants (48.7%) believed AI would be more profitable than humans in crypto trading. For long-term investing, 46.6% shared this view. Meanwhile, around 1 in 5 participants believed AI would mostly fall short against human decision-making in both trading and investing.
Interestingly, even among skeptics, curiosity around AI’s potential remains strong. A surprising 87.1% of participants said they would let AI manage at least a small portion of their crypto holdings, and about 14.5% were even open to handing over their entire portfolio to an AI agent.
Investors Are Starting To Look for More Than Just Hype
While AI tokens and meme coins continue to grab headlines, investors are also seeking projects with real-world utility and tangible value. The market is no longer driven by recycled hype alone.

Tokens like Artificial Superintelligence Alliance ($FET) and Ocean Protocol ($OCEAN) are leading this shift. Both have seen solid gains recently — $FET rising over 32% and $OCEAN jumping 28.4% in the past week — thanks to their critical role in building AI agent infrastructure and data networks within the crypto space.
