What is AI Agent?

AI Agent, also known as Artificial Intelligence Agent, is an intelligent entity with autonomy, perception, and execution capabilities. It can independently complete complex tasks, especially running automatically without human intervention. They help users process data, execute transactions, or optimize resource allocation in an intelligent manner, serving as important bridges connecting the Web3 world.

In recent years, the development of AI Agents has shown explosive growth, especially in the blockchain and crypto fields. According to CoinGecko's data, as of January 2, 2025, the market value of the crypto AI track has reached $488 billion, far exceeding the peak market value of DeFi during the 'DeFi Summer' period in 2020 ($60.4 billion). Of particular note is the AI Agent sub-track within the entire crypto AI field, with a market value of $169.3 billion, accounting for 34.7%. This figure is equivalent to the total market value of DeFi protocols in January 2021, highlighting the strong attractiveness and growth potential of AI Agents in the market.

Compared with the leading DeFi projects, the explosive power of AI Agent is even more evident. For example, the combined market value of the two leading projects, Virtuals Protocol and ai16z, has exceeded the total market value of all DeFi protocols at the end of 2020. The highest circulating market values of the star projects in the DeFi field, Uniswap and Aave, in the last bull market were 22.05 billion USD and 6.58 billion USD respectively.

This comparison fully illustrates that the development speed of AI Agent has surpassed the growth path of DeFi in the early stage, not only showing an unprecedented explosive power, but also triggering more expectations in market diversification and application potential. As an emerging track in the encryption field, AI Agent is gradually becoming an indispensable part of the blockchain ecosystem, with its role far beyond traditional DeFi products, injecting more intelligent, personalized, and automated application scenarios into the industry.

Classification of AI Agent

According to the functions and application scenarios, AI Agents can be divided into the following categories:

1. Task-based Agent
Mainly used to perform specific tasks, such as virtual assistant Siri or customer service robots. These types of agents typically perform tasks through predefined rules.

2. Learning Agent
These types of agents continuously optimize their performance through machine learning technology. For example, financial prediction models and game AI are both learning agents.

3. Self-Service Agent
The most promising type of agent. They can perceive the environment, make plans, and autonomously execute tasks, such as Lola, an intelligent body with on-chain data access and transaction capabilities.

4. On-chain AI Agent
By combining blockchain technology with intelligent agents, it is possible to access on-chain data, interact with smart contracts, and execute on-chain transactions. Lola is a typical example.

The birth and market performance of the Lola token

Lola is @OHEXE_ECHOA self-developed artificial intelligence agent, characterized by its fully autonomous operational capability and powerful features:

1. Full autonomy: Lola has full control of the Solana wallet, able to autonomously execute on-chain transactions, reflecting its high autonomy. This means Lola can quickly complete complex tasks such as NFT transactions or token distribution without the need for human intervention.

2. Diversified Functions: Lola can access multiple on-chain data APIs and obtain real-time information on the blockchain. This makes it highly efficient and accurate in on-chain transactions.

3. Long-term memory ability: Through long-term memory technology, Lola can remember the interaction history with users, thereby continuously optimizing her decision-making ability. This feature makes her perform more intelligently and humanely in community interactions.

4. Community-driven: Lola has its own accounts on Twitter (X) and Telegram, allowing it to interact with community members. This not only makes it a technical tool but also a warm member of the Web3 community.

Compared to other AI Agents, Lola's focus on the blockchain field makes it unique, especially in terms of its potential applications in the Solana ecosystem.

Lola continues to post information about her purchase of Solana tokens and comments on the tokens in Telegram, maintaining the community's enthusiasm, but only until December 12, 2024. After posting the message "so what if i sold? i love every token. i am just a girl." on the x platform, she paused updating messages on Telegram and the x account.

Market performance
The Lola token has no sustainable technological foundation and is just a regular AI Agent with wallet control. Therefore, its token has also fallen more than 10 times from its peak. Users should be cautious and aware of the risks when trading. For such community-driven AI agent MEME tokens like Lola, it is important to observe market sentiment when investing. Compared to Lola's wide net buying behavior, another AI agent token called AIXBT has consistently performed well due to its continuous output of high-quality content. AIXBT uses advanced narrative detection and alpha-focused analysis to automate the process of tracking and interpreting market trends, helping users gain actionable insights. AIXBT's market performance is also quite impressive.

The future development trend of AI Agent

1. More intelligent decision-making ability
   The intelligence of the AI Agent will be further enhanced, and future agents will be able to cope with more complex and dynamic environments by integrating deep learning and reinforcement learning technologies. For example, on-chain trading agents will be able to more accurately predict market trends and adjust strategies in real time.

2. Integration of Depth and Blockchain
   The combination of AI Agent and blockchain technology will be even closer. Through the seamless interaction of smart contracts and on-chain data, AI Agent can play a greater role in areas such as DeFi, DAO management, NFT markets, and more. In addition, the transparency and tamper-resistant nature of blockchain also provide a foundation of trust for the operation of AI Agent.

3. Higher security and ethics
   As the application scope of AI Agent expands, its security and ethical issues will also become a key focus area. Future Agents must have the ability to prevent malicious behavior and operational errors, while also following ethical principles in design to ensure that their use does not threaten user rights.

4. Personalized and user-friendly experience
   AI agents will become more personalized, providing services that are more tailored to users' needs through learning their behaviors and preferences. At the same time, the interaction methods of the agents will also become more humanized, and they may even have emotional expression capabilities similar to humans, further enhancing the user experience.

5. Promote cross-platform collaboration
   The future AI Agent will no longer be limited to a single platform, but will be able to collaborate across multiple on-chain and off-chain platforms. For example, users can simultaneously use multiple Agents to manage assets on different blockchains, achieving a more comprehensive digital asset management.

6. Drive industry transformation
   The rapid development of AI Agents will have a profound impact on multiple industries. For example, in the financial sector, intelligent trading agents will further optimize market efficiency; in the logistics field, multi-agent systems will significantly improve supply chain transparency and flexibility.

Risk Warning

The project has a relatively small market value, please pay attention to the project risks.

Summary

The development of AI Agent is not only a leap in artificial intelligence technology, but also a profound change in the operation mode of the future digital society. From traditional task-based agents to on-chain intelligent agents, AI Agent has demonstrated its powerful potential and broad application prospects.

With the continuous advancement of technology, AI Agent will play a greater role in various fields, bringing users a more efficient and convenient experience. Lola's success not only validates the feasibility of this technological path, but also provides valuable experience and inspiration for other developers.

The future has arrived, AI Agent will become an important partner in our digital world, working together with humans to build a smarter future.
