The AI Agent ecosystem on Solana is experiencing explosive growth, with standout projects like #ai16z and #Virtual leading the charge.
With a combined market cap exceeding $10 billion, these projects are seamlessly blending DeFi and AI to drive decentralized automation into the mainstream.
One token catching significant attention is $VIRTUAL, as whales make sizable investments.
Two fresh wallets, likely controlled by the same whale, recently withdrew 10 million $USDC from Coinbase to acquire 4.25 million $VIRTUAL at $2.35 each.
Another wallet, 0xcf4d…b6bc, spent 406 $ETH (valued at $1.58 million) to purchase 664,361 $VIRTUAL at $2.39.
Adding to the buzz, recent data indicates substantial movement of $VIRTUAL tokens on exchanges. Within the last 17 hours, suspected project-affiliated wallets or early participants transferred 7 million tokens to Bybit, valued at $17.09 million. Over the past two months, 11.97 million tokens, worth approximately $25.74 million, have been deposited on the exchange.
Tracing its origins, $VIRTUAL was first launched on Ethereum, with its initial distribution including a 54.85 million token airdrop to one address on December 23, 2023. This represented 5.49% of the total supply. The tokens were later migrated to the Base network in April 2024, where $VIRTUAL evolved further. Today, it operates on both Ethereum and Base, as confirmed by CoinMarketCap, and recently surged 15% to a new all-time high.
The original wallet holding $VIRTUAL still retains tokens valued at a staggering $100 million. With increasing whale interest and its ability to integrate DeFi with AI innovations, $VIRTUAL is cementing itself as a major player in the decentralized automation revolution.
