📊ai16z grows rapidly

Before the overview, let me explain why I picked this up at this time.I wanted to introduce it someday because it is well-known, but I had put it off because I had mentioned it in a past article just after its release.

Such ai16z has been growing rapidly over the past few days.

The token price has soared 146% in one week and 519% in 30 days, ranking it 62nd in the CMC.

The premise for this surge is also present in the AI agent bubble, but there are also changes to the dooken economics and proposed roadmap announced by ai16z.Specifically, "building a launchpad" and "building an AI-specific L1 blockchain" are mentioned, and the token price has skyrocketed on the expectation that ai16z will improve its utility.

This article will discuss this latest proposal, starting with an overview.
