iDEGEN, the AI-powered meme coin, has seen presale contributions increase by over $500k in a single day. The total raised now stands at a notable $23.9m, with only 5 days left before this widely discussed presale will close to early supporters on 26th February, with listing on DEX the day after.
Additionally, it has been announced that iDEGEN will list on BitMart on 4th March, with nearly $1 billion in liquidity gaining access to the IDGN token. This listing marks a significant step, potentially paving the way for further exchange integrations.
The project has consistently seen swift increases in capital funding during its presale, with the project’s V2 upgrade and had content censored and restricted multiple times on X both resulting in a similar momentum shift. Now, the team behind iDEGEN believes this latest growth trend highlights the project’s transition from a niche social experiment to a widely recognized AI contender.

How iDEGEN Surged and went viral
From the very beginning, iDEGEN adopted a completely unconventional approach: training its AI agent exclusively on conversations from Crypto Twitter (X) without any moderation or censorship.
The result has been an agent consistently posting content so unfiltered and provocative that it repeatedly faced restrictions for “violent speech.”
Three separate bans on X have only magnified public curiosity, turning controversy into increased visibility, marketing exposure and driving new waves of engagement. Now with over 25,000 holders and 2.6 million total social impressions, iDEGEN has established a strong presence in one of the year's highest growth sectors.
Now, as the presale period comes to a close and iDEGEN’s moves to the next stage of development, the team behind what has been described as the ‘world’s most insane social experiment’ is optimistic about its upcoming DEX listing.
iDEGEN innovates—and the market approves
With $23.9m raised over the past few months, iDEGEN's sustained momentum can be attributed to its regular and aggressive tech upgrades.
In an effort to outpace its AI agent peers, iDEGEN has consistently introduced innovations, that have often been world firsts. V2 upgrades saw iDEGEN make its mark on Telegram. And more recently, as part of its V3 roll-out, iDEGEN became the very first AI agent to debut on RedNote with video content—a medium said to be 52% more shareable than more basic formats.
Autonomous video content marked a clear acceleration in iDEGEN’s presale momentum, with its RedNote presence unveiling it to millions of potential Chinese investors. With crypto now legalized in the country, many had never before encountered a meme coin with iDEGEN’s unique approach, contributing to its rapid expansion and giving what the team believes is a crucial edge over competitors.
Moreover, the introduction of adaptive staking with up to 10,000% APY has helped to reinforce the project's appeal for those with a focus on the long-term development of this AI challenger.
Most recently, iDEGEN launched a second version of its AI agent on the DeepSeek R1 model—an ‘Nvidia-killing’ Chinese AI framework. iDEGEN is now positioning itself within an increasingly competitive AI landscape between the West and the East, setting its original AI against the alongside Chinese challenger.
The iDEGEN team believes that by positioning iDEGEN at the forefront of one of the world’s closely watched tech developments, and allowing two sides of its project to interact on social media, it will continue to build on its current presale momentum in the coming days.
IDGN token presale ends 26th February
Currently priced at $0.0314, IDGN is set for a pricing adjustment before the presale ends in 5 days’ on 26th February. The following week, the iDEGEN team anticipates the BitMart listing will mark the beginning of the project’s next growth phase.
Given its provocative, controversial style, and the significant of capital inflows into AI projects, with the US alone allocating $500 billion into AI in the coming years, iDEGEN’s launch may be perfectly timed to mop up the momentum of this energetic landscape.
