2025 has been a rough year for most crypto narratives
Among the hardest hit is #AI coins
Over the last 3 months, AI agents are down 37%
I spent the last 24 hours tracking the AI narrative
Here’s what I found (plus coins that are outperforming) 🧵
First, some overall performance for the #AI sector:
Market cap has shrunk 40% since the year began, falling from $50B to $30B today.
However, in Q3, it grew 10.8%, rising from $27.7B to $30.7B.
The sector peaked last year at $70B
Still, some AI subsectors show strengthening metrics:
By September, 41.8M+ devices were powering DePIN networks across various projects
DePIN fees have been rising all year, hitting $2.3M in September
Revenue also reached a yearly high of $2.6M in September
Over the last 90 days:
#AI Agents have captured 2.96% of investor mindshare
#DePIN has captured 2.80%
And #DeFAI, 0.90%
In the midst of all this, here are 8 tokens that I'm watching
