According to on-chain analytics, the value of tokens related to AI-based blockchain projects grew significantly over the past three months, outperforming most other sectors of the crypto market.
Binance Research reports that the quotations of six digital coins of AI blockchain projects rose by an average of 185% between October 2023 and January 2024.
The study found that the returns of AI tokens outperformed most other sectors of the crypto market. During the study period, DeFi protocol tokens soared by an average of 87%, tokens of GameFi projects by 109%, and real-world asset (RWA) tokens by 145%. Only tokens of Ethereum Layer 2 protocols were more profitable, growing by 221% in three months.
It’s worth noting that analysts didn’t include meme coins in the study, as their relatively low market cap overstates the growth percentage.
