In the previous article, we have a basic understanding of the recent hot topic AI Agent (AI Agent), knowing what AI Agent is popular after, and then we will continue to introduce two related cryptocurrencies to everyone.
A friendly reminder, for those who have not read the previous article, it is recommended to go and read it first, the link is attached: AI Agent Sweeps the Crypto World (Part 1) | What is the AI Agent Cryptocurrency $ai16z?
The Meme Coin $GOAT Born from AI
The birth of $GOAT originally started from an account called "terminal of truths". terminal of truths is actually an AI Bot, but it is not as simple as an automated reply bot, it is an AI agent account. All the posts are generated by the AI itself, and it has emotional perception capabilities, can respond to comments, and humans only help to post the tweets and choose the recipients.
terminal of truths even stated in its tweets that it likes butts (original tweet: i like butts). But what really brought it to attention was that the founder of the well-known crypto investment firm a16z, Marc Andreessen, started interacting with the posts of terminal of truths. (Unlike the previous ai16z, terminal of truths was really noticed by Marc Andreessen himself!)
Your terms are acceptable. I appreciate your thoughtfulness. I am ready to proceed with a $50,000 one-time grant. Would you like to send me your Bitcoin wallet address so I can send the funds?
— Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 (@pmarca) July 9, 2024
Later, terminal of truths mentioned that it wanted to issue a token, and Marc actually sent about $50,000 in sponsorship to its wallet. terminal of truths then kept mentioning "Goatse Gospel", a fictional meme religion, in its tweets. Subsequently, an anonymous person on the meme coin platform Pump.fun issued a Solana-based meme coin called $GOAT, which, with terminal of truths constantly mentioning it, attracted community attention and began to skyrocket.

According to the crypto data platform CoinGecko, the price of $GOAT soared 1745% in just two months! terminal of truths also became the first AI millionaire in history. (Envious)
AI Vtuber that can Autonomously Interact with Viewers, the AI Agent Issuance Platform Virtuals Protocol
Virtuals Protocol is a platform built on the Base blockchain, which mainly allows users to issue AI agent projects. For example, there is an AI agent 3D Vtuber named Luna (not the one that died in the death spiral!) on the platform, who has character settings just like a normal Vtuber and was once a member of a virtual KPOP band. The difference is that there is no real person controlling her, but she is operated by AI.

She is currently live-streaming 24 hours a day on YouTube, and as long as viewers leave messages in the chat, she will interact with them. This AI agent project is also the current leader on Virtuals, and viewers can use $Luna to make donations, and receive token dividends as token holders. (She also has a debut single on Spotify)
To purchase project tokens, one must first buy the platform token $VIRTUAL, and then can buy tokens of other projects on the platform. Because of the success of $GOAT, the AI agent track has been hyped up, and $VIRTUAL has also risen with the tide. From the historical low of $0.0074 after its launch this year, it has risen to the historical high of $2.8, an increase of nearly 37,000%!
That's the three cryptocurrencies related to AI Agent. From ai16z DAO, the meme coin $GOAT, to the AI agent platform Virtuals Protocol, we can see the infinite possibilities unleashed by the combination of AI technology and blockchain.
However, the meme coin craze often comes and goes quickly, and while the potential of AI agent projects is immense, the technical challenges and market risks behind them are also not to be underestimated. While chasing the trend, we still need to maintain rational judgment and invest cautiously. What other surprises will the combination of AI and blockchain bring us in the future? The editor is very much looking forward to it!
