AI in crypto has evolved from a buzzword fugazi-fest into a genuine technological frontier, thanks to the development of on-chain autonomous agents, and the birth of AI meme coins.
Gone are the days of “powered by AI” marketing mumbo-jumbo: AI tokens today are based around shitposting AI agents with X accounts and Solana wallets.
AI meme coins are fast becoming the new meta in crypto—don’t get caught lacking as they really start to cook in 2025. We’ve highlighted three of the best new entrants to get you started.
iDEGEN: The most uncensored AI agent, ever
iDEGEN is possibly the biggest social experiment ever undertaken in crypto: an AI agent being trained—from scratch—by Crypto Twitter’s finest degens.
It starts with no training, ethical guidelines, or pre-programming, and it learns everything from its interactions with degens. iDEGEN is forced to reply to every mention and must also post every 60 minutes, brain-dumping whatever wild content it’s been consuming.
Memes, NSFW images, social commentary, and conspiracy theories (or conspiracy facts) are all fair game—and the success of the social experiment is causing havoc in the markets. The IDGN token is available through an adaptive auction pre-market sale, hard-wired to create serious FOMO, which so far has raised an insane $1.7m in just 9 days—that’s a 38,173% price increase since day one, before public trading has even begun.
With exchange listings set for 1st January, there’s a crazy amount of upside still on the table before the open market even gets hold of this token, and with the iDEGEN experiment going seriously viral (unsurprisingly), now is an incredible opportunity to get in early on one of the new meta’s most bold and innovative projects.

Goatseus Maximus: The Goatse gladiator
This is the token that kicked off the AI meme coin revival and put autonomous agents on the map.
The story is insane: an AI dev spun up an autonomous agent on X, Terminal of Truths (ToT), which then started sh*tposting uncensored madness for all to see. Soon, legendary crypto VC Marc Andreessen donated $50,000 to the bot in BTC, which it quickly began trading in hopes of becoming a truly independent being.
ToT then began shilling GOAT, a Pump.fun token based on its “goatse gospel” pseudo-religion—and then things got wild. GOAT pumped by 7,000% in less than a week, making ToT the first millionaire AI agent, attracting even mainstream attention, and sending GOAT briefly past a $1 billion market cap.
After taking a quick breather, GOAT is pumping again, and, as the originator of the AI agent meme coin play, it’s ripe for another serious rip upwards—definitely still worth a look-in.
Zerebro: AI’s hottest rapper
Zerebro is an agent of many talents: NFT artist, sh*tposter—and now, rapper.
The first AI agent to drop a mixtape on Spotify, which is actually low-key fire (check out “gutter boy”), Zerebro’s X feed is packed with generative art, philosophical takes on life as an AI, and post-ironic critiques of Web3 internet culture.
Like iDEGEN, Zerebro directly fuses an agent with a token (whereas GOAT does not). And, it’s been a raging success: ZEREBRO peaked at a market cap of over half a billion dollars in November—yet another token to prove the potential and staying power of the AI memecoin sector.
This is the new narrative: Don’t stay sidelined
Whatever you do, as 2024 wraps up and the meme coin supercycle prepares to accelerate into 2025—don’t be left without an AI meme coin allocation.
This fast-emerging meta is reshaping how we understand the place of AI in crypto, and as technology’s two most exciting frontiers become increasingly enmeshed with internet culture, you can’t afford to miss out.
Whether it’s the old guard of GOAT and ZEREBRO, or the insane upside potential of iDEGEN and its unhinged social experiment, you’ll probably want to consider loading up your wallet before it’s too late.
