- Capturing, we see April’s 3rd week ICOs & top coins: Cryptaine, Grafilab & CORE, TAO, FET, HYPE
- $CRY by Cryptaine Web3 affiliate platform with smart contract model, payment in USDC, and 90% commission reduction.
- GRAFI enters IDO now on Spores, promising high-performance AI infrastructure.
- BLINK comes to IDO now on Kingdom Starter and BSCS, offering Blink-to-Earn mechanics.
- Core’s CORE topped the weekly rankings with a 30.63% gain
- Followed by Bittensor’s ATO with a 29.25% gain, also led by FET, RENDER, IMX, and HYPE
- Demand for AI and distributed computing infrastructure tokens persists and explains the ratings
Exploring April’s 3rd week ICOs & top coins: Cryptaine, Grafilab, CORE, TAO, FET, HYPE – almost all of them, to one degree or another, are related to AI, AI agents or the infrastructure required for efficient distributed computing.
A standout is Cryptaine, a Web3 affiliate platform for promoting products and services that utilizes a smart contract model, payment in USDC, and reduced fees of up to 90%. Their utility token $CRY goes live at IDO on April 22 on KingdomStarter and BSCS.
In contrast, Grafilab is a project directly focusing on AI infrastructure, and I’ve already described why it might be interesting. Its GRAFI token launches on April 24 on Huostarter and April 25 on Spores.
Also expected is IDO from Blink Game AI, a project that is also positioned as AI-oriented but no longer infrastructural but game and user-level. Their BLINK token is releasing on April 27 on KingdomStarter and BSCS.
Interestingly, the top tokens of the past week are also dominated by solutions focused on AI, distributed computing, and Web3 infrastructure improvements. CORE, TAO, FET, as well as HYPE, STX, IMX, RAY, KAS and RENDER are in the top.
Cryptaine ($CRY) – Web3 Affiliate Platform on Base
Cryptaine is launching an interesting initiative – a decentralized marketplace platform focused on the promotion of goods and services through affiliate programs using smart contracts and provides automated campaign management, commission distribution, and access to advanced analytics.
In essence, it is a Web3 solution that realizes automated interaction between advertisers, affiliates, and users prescribed in contracts and is fully transparent for all parties. The payment unit of the platform is USDC, which ensures the stability and predictability of settlements.
Summarizing all the functions of the token $CRY:
- gives access to more favorable terms and commission levels;
- participates in campaigns as part of the budget;
- is used to pay for access to premium features;
- can be included in incentive programs and reward model.
As a consequence, this allows another key feature of Cryptaine, namely to significantly reduce transaction costs: by keeping enough $CRY on a participant’s balance, the commission can be reduced from a base level of 5% to a minimum of 1%, which is equivalent to an 80% reduction.
Of the technical features, the platform is hosted on the Base blockchain, allowing for low transaction fees and compatibility with EVM infrastructure. The IDO of the $CRY token will take place on April 22 on KingdomStarter and BSCS. The project plans to raise $250,000 in the first phase, with token distribution: 15% unlocked on the TGE and the rest over 10 months on a linear schedule.
Top Tokens of the Week: AI, Infrastructure and Scalability
CORE is a very interesting L1 solution that combines Bitcoin decentralization via BTC Light Clients with EVM functionality for smart contracts. Built around the principle of permissionless mining and decentralized validated infrastructure, it has shown a +31.06% growth over the past week, now trading at $0.6775, and reaching a volume of $22.7M.
TAO is a native token of Bittensor, a decentralized neural network in which nodes train AI models and are rewarded for their accuracy and utility. TAO serves as a unit of account in the project’s computational economy and has seen +26.10% growth, reaching a price of $310.39 and a volume of $279.1M.
FET is a token of Fetch.ai (which in turn is part of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance with the goal of pooling resources to create a decentralized AGI infrastructure.), a framework for running decentralized autonomous agents that interact with each other through economic protocols, moreover, recently they released their LLMs. FET was up +23.53%, reaching a price of $0.6198 and volume of $182.8M.
RENDER, a Render token used in distributed GPU infrastructure for rendering 3D graphics and AI tasks, serves as a bridge between content creators and owners of computing resources. Clearly, the demand for efficient computing is only growing, and RENDER is one of the keys to this and has seen a +13.23% increase, reaching a price of $4.42, and a volume of $110.8M.
IMX is an Immutable X token built on StarkWare’s ZK-rollup solution for scalable and gas-free NFT transactions and is mainly focused on Web3 gaming and large game integrations on Ethereum. IMX posted a +12.65% gain, reached a price of $0.4797, and volume of $39.8M.
HYPE is a token of Hyperliquid, a DEX derivative with a native order book and gas-free infrastructure. The platform is designed for high-frequency and institutional trading, providing speed and liquidity without centralized intermediaries. So here’s their HYPE showing good numbers last week +12.57%, reaching a price of $17.83 and a volume of $98.9M.
STX is a token of the Stacks ecosystem, another solution aimed at extending the Bitcoin functionality. Specifically, it is an L2 solution that allows smart contracts and dApps to be run on Bitcoin while maintaining its security and uses the Clarity language and Proof-of-Transfer mechanism. Their token STX has shown a +11.06% increase over the last week, reaching a price of $2.86, and a volume of $183.5M.
KAS – Kaspa token, an L1 with a specific and promising solution to the crypto infrastructure and industry, close to the HBAR approach. It is essentially an implementation of GHOSTDAG, where blocks do not conflict, but are built in a graph (blockDAG), providing high speed and scalability, allowing transactions to be confirmed almost instantly without loss of decentralization, and even possibly becoming an alternative to the classic blockchain if it reaches a plateau. This makes the growth of KAS particularly interesting, although not great, in particular, +9.28%, price $0.0819, and volume $38.4M.
Conclusion
AI and infrastructure tokens seem to continue to attract the attention of investors, and this is more than understandable to me. Against a backdrop of great political and economic uncertainty, it’s interesting to consider solutions that have a specific purpose, solve specific problems, and are likely to remain valuable even if the price jumps. Stay tuned for updates, and be adaptive in the rapidly evolving technological, financial, and crypto landscape.
