The native token of the Virtuals Protocol, VIRTUAL, has experienced a significant surge in value, with a 29% increase in the past 24 hours and a 161% increase over the last week. This has propelled it into the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap. The interest in Virtuals is driven by the growing demand for AI agents, or AI-powered autonomous programs capable of mimicking human decision-making. Virtuals Protocol is a launchpad and marketplace for gaming and entertainment AI agents, and its VIRTUAL token enables broader participation in the ownership of AI agents. The ecosystem also includes other tokens such as Aixbt, Luna, and VaderAI, which have all seen substantial gains. The rise of AI agents in the blockchain industry is seen as a natural progression, offering advantages such as constant availability and the ability to handle transactions using internet-native currencies.
