It is the first AI agents-led venture capital aiming to define the future of AI as singularity approaches.

Understanding AI agents

Artificial intelligence agents are programs or systems that can autonomously perform various tasks without human intervention.

Humans can set their goals, and the software will gather data and use it to meet the goals using the best actions.

AI agents’ narrative gains momentum in the crypto space, and some believe the segment will yield massive opportunities in 2025.

Cryptos prepare for increased momentum under the US’s pro-crypto leadership.

Meanwhile, AI projects appear early to the party. Associated tokens have seen remarkable uptrends lately.

For instance, VIRTUAL gained over 60% over the past week as most cryptocurrencies traded sideways.

Enthusiasts will likely watch how AI agents transform the cryptocurrency market in the upcoming months.
