🐳 Daily Edition: BTC Rises, Bitcoin OG's AI Platform Steals the Spotlight

After a turbulent weekend, Monday has opened green as Bitcoin tries to break through $70k with a 5% gain on the day. The standout performer of recent weeks has been VVV, native token of Erik Voorhees’ Venice AI network. VVV has now risen over 100% in the last week alone to a $600M FDV as viral agent platform OpenClaw designated Venice as their featured model provider.

Venice’s main value proposition stems from its cost-effectiveness through their dual VVV-DIEM token model and privacy protocol, which ensures no user conversations are collected or stored. This allows you to access the most popular models without sacrificing your data to the major AI companies, all while saving up to 80% on token costs at current rates.

As the agent economy continues to develop, we should expect to see more breakout AI apps from the blockchain community. Programmable agents will need programmable money to transact, and the crypto community needs to come together to prepare our infrastructure for the future we know is coming.
