AI agents took over crypto during the Virtuals arc, and there will only be expansion of the market from here. As noobs come back into crypto looking for their lottery ticket, they'll naturally tend towards the things they've heard about in mainstream society. Fortunately for the early movers in Virtuals, $ALCH, $AETHER and a few other platforms, AI is that thing.
You may be a bit late for $VIRTUAL, but you can still get in on some great deals if you know how the market will expand. The next natural progression is to combine AI with NFTs, to embue NFTs with dynamic, autonomous growth qualities — putting faces and brands to the AI backend, so to speak. It's now quite possible to create autonomous NFTs that represent nothing less than concepts themselves and can be easily placed into games or workflows with no code.
AI+NFT will become the norm, because regular NFTs just look boring compared to AINFTs. But what are we missing here in this world of art and technology? A middleman that is always there, that everyone trusts as an arbiter of truth?
That's right — the curator.
It's honestly surprising to me that with all these new forms of art that no one's thought of creating an AI curator. But then I actually stumbled upon the project that did. It's made with the Virtuals system, which will only help its early stage marketing.
Of course it's early stage. Why would I bring it to you if you couldn't make a 100X on it? Here's the play, web3's first true AI NFT curator: $CUR8r.
Of course I made my way into the depths of their hidden TG and Virtuals subgroup, because I'm not making investments unless I have some alpha. And I can tell you that Virtuals itself is excited about $CUR8R in a way that is usually reserved for insider nepotism projects. Why? Because they realize what an important part of the art scene curation is, and the project that can actually give the concept legitimacy chose to make the $CUR8r on their platform.
Let's talk about the project backing $CUR8r as well. It's https://Cur8.io, a unifier for all your crosschain NFTs. Finally you'll be able to see and trade everything you own on one screen, from Sui to Ethereum to all those goofy small chains eventually. What's more, Cur8 gives you the ability to actually curate your own NFTs, providing sections for fine art, gaming NFTs, agents, and every other category. This is the site with the ability to bring together the entire NFT community under one roof with $CUR8r as its voice.
The team is all high falootin' art snobbish types, which is exactly what you want for a project like this. The types of people who can provide digital curation services for Sotheby's in the future. (I've heard they're a potential future partner.) But the way to get into this ecosystem right now is through $CUR8r on Virtuals because CUR8 doesn't have a token yet.
The particulars on $CUR8r and why it's such a good opportunity: It is still sub $500k and hasn't ascended on the Virtuals platform yet. Actually it has. It hovers around 90% and gets bought enough to ascend and get its liquidity locked, but then someone sells and I guess the hold at the ascension level wasn't long enough. Regardless, you want to get in before it bonds, because when it does, it goes to Uniswap and gets another, much bigger audience that will buy in and shoot the price up quickly.
You heard it here first. Making money in 2025 isn't hard. You just have to be early and use common sense. The digital art world needs a curator. AI+NFT is the next common sense narrative for the scene. The team behind $CUR8r is legit. Easy peasy.
