Grayscale: AI Crypto Sector Rises 54% in September, Potential Winners in Next 5 Years

On October 4, Zach Pandl, head of research at Grayscale, stated that the AI crypto sector rose 54% in September, significantly outperforming the overall crypto market's 24% increase. Nevertheless, the sector's market capitalization remains only about $15 billion, making it the smallest among the six crypto sectors defined by Grayscale. Among the representative tokens, NEAR surged 183%, Venice (VVV) increased by 70%, World (WLD) rose by 47%, and Bittensor (TAO) climbed 37%. These projects involve agent commerce, privacy AI applications, human verification, and open AI networks. Grayscale believes that public blockchains can provide open infrastructure for agent payments, identity, privacy computing, and verifiable records, complementing the current AI ecosystem concentrated in a few companies. The AI crypto sector may see one or more major winners in the next five years, and recent performance indicates that investors are beginning to price in the role of blockchain as infrastructure in the emerging agent economy.
