AGIX’s price jump started around Tuesday, following the news that Microsoft (MSFT) plans to invest $10 billion in OpenAI, the startup behind the popular artificial-intelligence tool ChatGPT. The token’s price climbed to as high as 10 cents on Wednesday before settling back to 8 cents as of press time.
The token’s trading volume has surged 529% in the past 24 hours, CoinMarketCap’s data shows. The token, launched in 2018 and rebranded in 2021, works across multiple blockchains such as Cardano and Ethereum.
Other AI- and big data-related tokens have been on the rise lately, as well. The Graph’s native token, GRT, has risen 15% over the past seven days, and AI platform Fetch.ai's native token, FET, has surged over 60% over the same period.

Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
