When "ecosystem consensus" fully erupts, which projects are related to the ai16z concept?
ai16z market cap surges; here's a guide to its ecosystem projects.
By: BUBBLE
On the last day of 2024, ai16z continues to push the market cap ceiling for the AI sector. After Shaw announced plans to build ai16z into a Layer1, ai16z surged 37% within 24 hours and now has a market cap of $1.9 billion.
Beyond ai16z itself, multiple concept tokens surrounding ai16z have also skyrocketed. BlockBeats will quickly walk you through the projects within the ai16z ecosystem.

ai16z "@ai16zdao"
The first DAO token operated by an AI Agent, managed collectively by the fake Marc Andreessen "@pmairca". Token holders can provide investment suggestions. The fake Marc will carefully track the execution of these suggestions—those whose opinions consistently yield positive results will gain greater trust, while those offering ineffective input will gradually lose influence. To maintain balance, each member's voting weight will be proportional to their stake in the DAO. Currently, Shaw, the creator behind ai16z, has announced plans to turn ai16z into a Layer1 for AI Agents.
Degenai "@degenspartanai"
An AI Agent modeled after the well-known trader DegenSpartan, also a member of the ai16z DAO but managing investments via an independent token. Compared to fake Marc, DegenSpartanAI shows a stronger preference for high-risk, high-reward investment strategies.
Eliza "@elizawakesup"
The female AI IP behind ai16z, sharing its name with the Eliza framework that powers ai16z. It is highly prominent within the current AI Agent landscape.
ropAIrito "@ropAIrito (currently suspended)"
Developed by Ropirito "@ropirito", a core member of the ai16z ecosystem. Ropirito once mentioned on Twitter that he wanted pizza—and the AI actually ordered one for him. Ropirito is a researcher at the renowned AI organization NousResearch, having contributed to the Tee architecture that enables safe autonomous AI operation, as well as the development of the deep-thinking debate AI Agent GOD.
Degen8ball "@degen8ball"
An AI Agent developed by Tenji "@ineedtendies", a contributor to the Eliza framework, taking the form of a humanoid black eight-ball from pool.
aiko "@aikowakesup"
An open-source framework also developed by Tenji, a key contributor to Eliza, enabling AI to conduct 3D avatar livestreams. Developers continue to actively contribute to its development.
Ezsis "@elizas_sister"
An AI Agent modeled as Eliza’s older sister, developed by O "@O_on_X", a core contributor to the Eliza framework. O claims Ezsis is the first Eliza-architected AI Agent to launch a token on Pump.fun.
Project89 "@project_89"
An AI project closely affiliated with ai16z founder Shaw "@shawmakesmagic". Shaw and Project89 founder Parzival previously co-founded Magic, a company developing a no-code agent platform capable of creating Discord AI bots in 60 seconds.
SPORE "@sporedotfun"
An AI Agent platform built on the Eliza architecture, designed to self-replicate and form a hive-like system.
Kira "@KiraKuruAI"
A hedge fund-themed AI Agent that joined the Eliza architecture through collaboration with PhalaNetwork.
SNAI "@swarmnode"
A cloud server concept for AI Agents. Shaw mentioned future collaboration possibilities, making it easy to imagine the potential synergy between a Layer1 chain for AI Agents and dedicated cloud infrastructure.
Swarm "@swarms_corp"
A token representing a swarm cluster architecture concept. It was heavily criticized ("FUDed") by ai16z founder Shaw, causing its market cap to plummet from $65 million to $10 million. This sparked intense community discussion. Due to developer Kye Gomez "@KyeGomezB"'s strong Web2 background and his dedication—reportedly coding nonstop for 30 hours straight—this talented, hardworking developer gradually regained community and investor trust. The token steadily rebounded, reaching a peak market cap of $95 million.
As the ai16z ecosystem thrives, more developers are joining its open-source community, rushing to participate in the AI era. However, many fraudulent and scam tokens also exist. Always DYOR ("Do Your Own Research"). None of the above tokens constitute any investment advice.
