Artificial intelligence (AI) has dominated the headlines in recent times and has piqued the interest of many in Silicon Valley and the wider investing markets.
This guide will talk you through some of the biggest cryptocurrency projects that are utilising or building AI technology.
This is not an endorsement of cryptocurrency or any specific provider, service or offering. It is not a recommendation to trade or use any services.
This will depend on things like your risk appetite, investing horizon and expectations.
While there are a range of established and developing crypto AI projects, it's still an extremely nascent technology and there's no guarantees that any of these projects will achieve breakthrough success or achieve their goals.
Below are some of the top AI coins by total market capitalisation and trading volume:

NEAR Protocol is a layer-1 blockchain that aims to offer fast transactions, low fees and better interoperability through community-run cloud computing. It initially launched as an AI research project before evolving into its own blockchain but still retains an interest in AI and Web3 functionality.
Methodology: This list is based on the top 5 AI-related cryptocurrencies by market capitalisation at the time of last update.
However, this list should only be used as a reference and is not an endorsement of any particular crypto coin or project.
Cryptocurrencies remain highly volatile and you should always do your own research before investing.
#REF!
These are the things you should be keeping in mind when researching which cryptos to buy:
AI cryptocurrencies might show a lot of potential for growth but they're also highly speculative for several reasons:
For these reasons, always ensure your investments align with your risk tolerance ensure you hold a diversified portfolio.
"AI is a buzzword which means that businesses are jumping on the bandwagon to claim a piece of the pie. Unfortunately, as an investor it can be hard to distinguish the true AI business models from all the marketing jargon. Before investing in an AI crypto project, make sure to do your research by reading the white paper and checking out the tokenomics. Never go all in on one project, unless you can afford to lose it all too."
Disclaimer: Cryptocurrencies are speculative, complex and involve significant risks – they are highly volatile and sensitive to secondary activity. Performance is unpredictable and past performance is no guarantee of future performance. Consider your own circumstances, and obtain your own advice, before relying on this information. You should also verify the nature of any product or service (including its legal status and relevant regulatory requirements) and consult the relevant Regulators' websites before making any decision. Finder, or the author, may have holdings in the cryptocurrencies discussed.

Finder is a comparison service. We do not compare every product or every provider in the market.
We make money through commercial arrangements with some of the providers on this site. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement.
Our editorial content, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements.
The default order of products in our tables can be influenced by commercial arrangements. You can re-sort or filter using the controls above each table.
Some content on this site may be generated or supported by AI tools. You should verify details directly with the provider.
Finder is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles.
Our comparison service does not include every product or every provider in the market. Some product issuers offer their products under multiple brands or through associated companies. Where we can, we identify the underlying issuer so you can compare like with like, but you should always check with the provider directly to confirm which brand you are dealing with.
Finder is a comparison website and an intermediary. We are not a product issuer and we do not provide personal financial or credit advice. When you click a link to a product, or apply for a product through our site, you deal directly with the product issuer. We may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the issuer if you click through, apply or take out a product. We describe these arrangements in more detail under 'How we make money' below.
Product features, fees, terms and eligibility criteria are set by the product issuer and may change. We rely on information supplied by issuers when we present product details on our site. Before you apply for or take out any product, you should confirm the details directly with the issuer.
We earn revenue from Finder in four principal ways:
Referral fees and commissions. When you click a product link, complete an enquiry form or apply for a product through our site, we may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the product issuer. We may also receive payment based on the volume of leads or conversions we send to an issuer.
Sponsored placements. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement between Finder and the issuer. These labels always indicate a paid placement. We do not use them for editorial choices.
Display advertising. Banner advertising, newsletter advertising and similar display ads on our site are paid by advertisers.
Content sponsorship. Some articles, videos and social media posts are sponsored by an issuer and are clearly labelled as such.
Our editorial opinions, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements. A 'Top Pick' is an editorial choice made by our writers and editors based on the criteria described on each comparison page. A 'Top Pick' is not a personal recommendation and does not mean the product is appropriate for your circumstances.
If you would like to know whether we have a commercial arrangement with a specific product issuer, please contact us.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the default order can be influenced by commercial arrangements we have with product issuers. In some categories, sponsored or featured products appear in the top positions of the table by default, and are always labelled as such.
Other factors that influence default order include price, fees and features, and (where relevant) our editorial view of the product.
You can re-sort every comparison table using the controls above the table. You can filter by product features that matter to you. The order you see after re-sorting or filtering is not influenced by commercial arrangements.
