AI tokens Fetch.AI, AGIX, and OCEAN Talk merged, surging by double digits
Three leading AI blockchain projects – Fetch.AI (FET), SingularityNET (AGIX), and Ocean Protocol (OCEAN) – are about to merge into a new token called Artificial Superintelligence (ASI), with the common goal of building a decentralized AI giant. The program aims to position blockchain technology as a formidable competitor to established tech giants such as OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, and Apple by leveraging their intrinsic advantages in AI development.
This major news has received a positive response from the market. In the last 24 hours, Fetch.AI is up 12%, SingularityNET is up 10%, and Ocean Protocol is up a massive 23% in value, highlighting the market's enthusiastic welcome to merger talks. #山寨季开始#
The proposed merger, which aims to merge the three tokens into an ASI token, is expected to be worth approximately $7.5 billion when fully diluted. The completion of the merger is subject to the approval of each community member participating in the platform.
While negotiations are still ongoing, representatives of SingularityNET, Fetch.ai, and Ocean Protocol remain neutral, choosing not to comment on the matter. According to sources who spoke on condition of anonymity, the deal could be announced as early as Wednesday, subject to the consent of community members for each of the projects involved.
At the heart of this cooperation is the creation of a super intelligence collective that will oversee the strategic direction of the combined entity. Ben Goertzel, visionary founder and CEO of SingularityNET, will lead the initiative, while Humayun Sheikh, CEO of Fetch.ai known for his early investment in DeepMind (later acquired by Google), is poised to serve as chairman.
This leadership structure aims to synergize each platform's unique technical and philosophical approach to create an environment in which decentralized AI can thrive away from the traditional corporate model dominated by shareholder interests.
This bold move comes against the backdrop of escalating investments in AI technology by heavyweight tech companies, signaling a broad industry consensus on AI's transformative potential. These companies' growing interest in AI has sparked a parallel movement in the cryptocurrency space, with projects such as SingularityNET, Fetch.ai, and Ocean Protocol leading the development of decentralized AI solutions.
These solutions are designed to democratize AI advancements and ensure that the benefits of AI technology can be enjoyed by a wider audience, not just a coalition of tech oligarchs.
Fetch.AI (FET) is the largest of all three AI crypto projects by market capitalization, and Fetch.AI (FET) continues its price discovery pattern after breaking through all-time highs in mid-February. The current FET is trading at $3.24.
