VIRTUAL leads AI rally with 83% weekly surge: You should buy now, IF…

AI tokens have been on the rise in the past 24 hours, with the industry becoming the most dominant sector.

  •  AI tokens are taking center stage in terms of prices and volume, with VIRTUAL taking the lead.
  • Trading volume among the top 10 AI tokens in the market ranged between $680 million and $900 million, showing market strength.

There has been a notable rise in artificial intelligence (AI) tokens as the broader crypto market has also climbed.

According to CoinMarketCap, the AI segment has seen a major drive to the upside, with overall token prices up 12.2% and trading volume surging by 44%.

Data from Artemis reveals that the AI sector has grown 17.4% over the past month, making it the second most dominant sector behind DePin and the Bitcoin ecosystem.

This one-month data shows that adoption has begun to catch the attention of investors.

Correspondingly, data from Coinglass shows that the top 10 AI agent tokens had volumes ranging between $680 million and $900 million, with Virtual [VIRTUAL]   dominating the list.

A rise in both volume and price suggests that momentum in the market is building, and the AI sector could continue driving the shift. Furthermore, a close look at the current Funding Rates shows positive readings for the top 10 AI-agent tokens.

Overall, it suggests that long traders are paying a premium fee to short traders to avoid large price disparities in the market.

VIRTUAL leads the rally race

VIRTUAL has seen cumulative growth of 83% over the past week, with a 16.58% rise in the past 24 hours. On the chart, there’s a possibility that VIRTUAL could see a further price jump in the coming trading sessions.

Targets show that if VIRTUAL crosses the $1.11 resistance level, another 362% rally toward $5.14 could be within reach. The reason for this jump comes after VIRTUAL breached a bullish descending resistance path, typically a rally precursor.
