Virtuals Protocol, a platform for creating AI agents, has seen a significant surge in token prices across its ecosystem following the announcement of a buyback-and-burn program. The price of its native token, VIRTUAL, climbed over 30% to $3.90 yesterday, bringing its market capitalization to nearly $3.9 billion. Additionally, leading AI agent tokens within the Virtuals ecosystem, such as AIXBT, GAME, VADER, and LUNA, have each gained more than 27% yesterday as well, pushing the ecosystem's total market cap to $6 billion.

The buyback-and-burn initiative will use $11.7 million worth of VIRTUAL tokens to acquire and remove 25 AI agent tokens from circulation. The largest burns will target GAME with 1.6 million tokens, CONVO with 1.1 million tokens, and AIXBT with 880,000 tokens, based on data from Dune Analytics. This program reflects Virtuals’ commitment to enhancing token value within its rapidly growing ecosystem, built on Coinbase-incubated L2 Base. Shoutout to Oregon Blockchain for their research on Virtual, where they bought it at $0.55 USD!

MAGAVERSE IS READY TO BEGIN🗣

$MVRS

$0.06797

$67.9 Million

+62.2%

We all knew the Trump coins would dominate the markets, as arguably him and Elon dictate the markets the most out of anyone, perchance. One of the top gainers has been $MVRS, short for MAGAVERSE, which is a coin accomanied with the “dream team” as they call it, with Trump Jr, Dana White, Elon Musk, RFK, and Vivek, and obviously including Trump. There’s something different with this coin, as it doesnt single Trump out, but is kinda like their version of the avengers. Should be cool to see this coin possibly climb the ranks, especially if they get a tough flick during inaguration. Already up to a market cap of $67.9 Million, $MVRS started the year at a $13 Million market cap, now up 62% today.

XRP WAITING FOR COURT

$XRP

$3.37

$194 Billion

+15%

The SEC’s legal battle with Ripple remains a defining moment for crypto regulation. The agency is appealing the July 2023 ruling by Judge Analisa Torres, which determined that XRP sales to retail investors did not constitute unregistered securities. The SEC argues that Ripple’s promotional efforts created an expectation of profit, making XRP an investment contract under the Howey Test. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and legal experts have criticized the appeal, calling it a reiteration of failed arguments. Ripple’s legal team suggested the case will ultimately favor the company. Amid the legal wrangling, XRP has defied market expectations, surging above $3 for the first time since 2018, with analysts attributing the rally to optimism over the case and potential regulatory shifts that could reshape the crypto landscape. But, the memcoin dopped 33% to a market cap of $200 Thousand.
