AI is undoubtedly the absolute main line of the Crypto market in recent times, and various AI concept tokens have risen. So, how is the performance of AI NFT? Which AI NFT projects are worthy of our attention? BlockBeats has compiled 13 AI NFT projects worth paying attention to.
ai16z partners
Although it originated from an NFT series created by community member @SOLsesame, it obviously has the official support of ai16z.
Shaw has expressed support on Twitter several times:
In the official Discord of ai16z, there is also an "NFT" role specially set up for ai16z partners holders.
At present, we don't know what specific effects it will have. The series itself is not an AI narrative, but it is closely related to ai16z. The current floor price is close to 4 SOL, close to the previous high.
zereborn
It comes from the official zerebro, and it should be the first NFT series created by AI Agent. I think the official endorsement + AI creation of these two narratives make the market value of zereborn higher than ai16z partners, although the market value of $zerebro is currently nearly $1.5 billion behind $ai16z.
It is not known what specific effects it will have at the moment, and the floor price is close to 5.7 SOL.
Virtuals Land
This is a Free Mint land series released by Virtuals in July 2024. There are only 100 in total, and there are no restrictions such as white orders. Despite this, at that time, it took nearly 20 minutes to finish the game. You even had the opportunity to buy it at such a low price:
With the explosion of AI concepts, as the AI leader on the Base network, this series has now become a flying dragon. If the total amount is not too small, this is definitely a strong competitor for the largest NFT play in 2024, but few NFT players have noticed this 100-fold NFT project, because it is actually an AI track, and each industry is like a mountain apart.
The current floor price is 11 ETH, and players expect it to play a role in AI+ games in the future.
2049 // Reflections
Freysa AI's official NFT series, a limited collection of NFTs that runs autonomously in a trusted execution environment (TEE) and provides access to tools, seed prompts, and mission objectives. The minting price of this series is 0.25 ETH, with a total of 2049. The current floor price is close to 0.6 ETH, corresponding to a market value of approximately US$4.2 million, and the market value of its token $FAI is close to US$370 million.
Smol Brains
This series is also known as "Magic Monkey". It is an old project that has existed in the last cycle and has always been the core PFP project of the Treasure DAO ecosystem.
In the past week, Smol Brains has increased 4 times, and the current floor price is close to 0.4 ETH.
The reason for the rise of "Magic Monkey" is still Shaw, because Shaw was the earliest developer of the Treasure DAO ecosystem. He is responsible for Smol Brains' game project Smol World. Smol World will be an AI game. Each Smol Brains will act as an AI Agent to play on-chain games. They can steal each other's assets for PvP. The game will be integrated with the Eliza framework.
Smol Brains' token $SMOL has also risen by as much as 8 times in the past week. $SMOL will migrate to version V2 to enhance its utility in the Smol World game. Currently, the market value of $SMOL is approximately US$16.5 million.
Kemonokaki
It's a bit far-fetched to include this project, but it's worth paying attention to. Kemonokaki summed it up in one sentence, which is equivalent to Milady on Base.
The reason for its rise in the past week is that it will benefit from the white orders of Daolympus World, the $OHM re-innovation project of daos.world.
Among the multi-signatures of ALCHDAO, 3 will be from the daos.world team. ALCHDAO is a DAO focused on investing in tokenized AI agents and blockchain innovations.
In addition, Virtuals official Twitter also posted Kemonokaki in July 2024. Of course, it has been a long time since then, so it doesn't really explain anything, but it more illustrates Kemonokaki's status as a base Milady.
Parallel Avatars
Parallel is a TCG (trading card game) on the Base chain, which is affiliated with the Echelon Prime Foundation. In 2021, Parallel completed a $50 million financing led by Paradigm. Other investors include YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley, Focus Labs, OSS Capital, and Yunt Capital.
Parallel is already available for players to play. In addition to Parallel, Echelon Prime Foundation is also developing Parallel Colony, a survival game that integrates ERC-6551 technology and allows players to cooperate with AI. Players give tasks to AI agents, and AI agents complete them on their own. They will communicate with other AI agents and also communicate with players to give their own game ideas. AI agents will also trade autonomously in Parallel Colony.
The initial AI Agent game characters need to be created through Parallel Avatars, and there will be a mechanism in the future for ordinary players to obtain AI Agent game characters to participate in the game. Currently, the floor price of Parallel Avatars is close to 1 ETH.
This game will be open for testing in the first quarter of this year. In addition to Parallel Colony, Parallel has also developed an AI-driven full-chain automated trading tool @AIWayfinder, which is quite like an all-in AI.
CryptoAgents
This is a series that has not yet been released, with a total supply of 10,000, Free Mint. To sum it up, this will be an NFT series created by an AI Agent, but the difference is that this will be a fully on-chain NFT series, that is, the image is rendered through the code of the smart contract.
The project was launched by @punk3700, who is the founder of the modular Bitcoin Layer2 project BVM and the founder of Eternal AI, a multi-chain AI layer.
Bossu
The new project is currently scheduled to be minted on January 7. It is nicknamed "Shark Egg" in the Chinese circle. Because of its cute image, it has attracted more attention from NFT players.
The information about this team @wawe_online is quite confusing. The official website says that it is a digital art creative studio established in Argentina in 2019, but the location shown on Linkedin is Chiang Mai, Thailand, and Behance shows it is in China.
But this is a Free Mint series, so it is not a big problem. Their currency $BOSSU runs the Eliza framework, and its current market value is close to 2 million US dollars. The NFT series itself is an IP image created by this studio for many years. It is not generated by AI Agent, but using AI Agent to operate the IP image and then release the picture does reflect the IP development idea beyond the opening picture.
xNomad
A new AI NFT project from NFTGo, which has not yet been released. Simply put, AI Agents and small pictures are bundled together. NFT holders can use their NFTs as AI Agents, allowing them to invest, receive airdrops, etc., and the money earned by small pictures can also be withdrawn.
It is running the Eliza framework. Let's see if Shaw can turn his eyes over. If he can, I will be more optimistic.
Botto
Starting from here, there are some things that are different from the current mainstream AI narrative and that NFT players will pay more attention to.
Old NFT players should have an impression of Botto, which is also a project from the last cycle to now. Botto is a decentralized AI artist that has been working since October 8, 2021. AI creates 350 works of art every week, and the community will vote for one to be auctioned on SuperRare. Voting requires staking $BOTTO to obtain voting points, and 40% of the auction proceeds will be used to reward voters.
The community will also decide the AI's creative themes, whether to introduce or delete the AI models used, etc. through proposals, allowing Botto to conduct artistic exploration in different directions in different cycles.
This project can be regarded as a cross-bull and bear market, and Botto's six works were also sold at Sotheby's for a total of $351,600 on October 24, 2024. Currently, the market value of $BOTTO is approximately $31 million.
Neura
Neura is not a regular AI image generation platform. In fact, Adanede, the team behind Neura, intends to build Neura into a decentralized, self-aware AI artist through self-financing. Neura will create art independently, but users can use Android NFTs to influence Neura's creations. Different Android NFTs will give Neura different creative styles, and each user will be a unique node of Neura.
Currently, Neura has created its first series "The Memories" and completed Free Mint. This series allows users to freely provide inspiration to AI, and then AI recreates based on the user's basic outlines. It is equivalent to letting Neura show its strength first. The road to cultivating AI artists has not officially begun, so you can pay attention.
alignDRAW
These pictures are abstract... right?
The reason for this rough mosaic abstraction is that these works are made by the first AI model in history to convert text to image. In 2015, 19-year-old Elman Mansimov, through his alignDRAW model, first realized the AI operation of generating images through text prompts.
This is a pure art project, and its main focus is on a historical narrative of AI development. In 2024, the series reached a historical high of nearly 3 ETH, and the initial minting price was 0.1 ETH. Currently, the floor price of the series is about 1.66 ETH.
