With Trump’s election victory, the crypto market is welcoming its long-anticipated "crypto president," and the entire sector is abuzz with enthusiasm over what’s being hailed as a “crypto win.” BTC has surged past $75,000, setting a new all-time high.

Yet meme coins—the usual crowd-pleasers—have underperformed today. Aside from election-related memes that briefly spiked during the voting period, most other meme categories have remained flat, sharply contrasting with BTC’s record-breaking rally. Even the election-themed meme coins have begun to retreat collectively following the final results.

However, regardless of broader market trends, exceptional assets continue to grow quietly in the background. For example, the recent Solana AI meme wave helped propel the concept of on-chain AI agents. Projects like Base ecosystem leader Virtuals.io, with its token $VIRTUAL, and its AI agent token $LUNA, both surpassed a $250 million market cap despite limited market focus on the Base ecosystem—highlighting the strong potential of AI agent-based assets.

Now, with the election settled and a long-term bull run in crypto likely beginning, this brief window of cooling meme sentiment presents an opportunity to explore and potentially invest in AI agent projects—an alternative strategy to chasing overheated trending assets. TechFlow has compiled an overview of key AI agent projects for readers.
