Key Points

The AI agent market continues its rapid development, with key players consolidating market share, and new entrants gaining attention. Trump announced a $500 billion investment over the next 4 years for AI infrastructure development.

What does this mean for AI and Crypto? As the potential of the AI agent market becomes apparent, should the agent market's market cap exceed $150 billion?

Fartcoin and AIXBT still maintain Mindshare dominance, but after a fierce market activity, the market cap has declined. Could this be a capital rotation within the AI submarket?

Virtuals, Ai16z, Griffain, Arc, Rektguy, HeyAnon, AVA, Moby, Zerebro, and others are all rising in tandem with profit taking.

Notable Changes:

Fartcoin: While maintaining its Mindshare dominance, the market capitalization has adjusted, indicating a healthy profit-taking phase after a sharp rise.

Virtuals: Cementing its position as the cornerstone of AI agent infrastructure, expanding its developer ecosystem, and enabling integration through APIs to support integration with any framework.
