Swiss CV VC Report Forecasts Major Buzz Around ‘AI Agent’ Coins in 2025

Switzerland’s CV VC report highlights a significant advancement in the ‘Crypto Valley’, indicating that in 2024, the blockchain sector reached $584.33 billion, reflecting a 56.5% increase year-on-year. The report predicts that decentralized AI will gain traction in 2025, primarily revolving around ‘AI agent’ coins.

“Interest in decentralized AI (DeAl) will grow, fueled by experiments in decentralized training and inference,” the report states. However, it suggests that the ‘AI agent’ coins will dominate the hype of 2025.

The analysis reveals that while the US and Asia are home to most of the global crypto unicorns, Switzerland’s Crypto Valley alone produced 17 blockchain unicorns in 2024. The report also notes significant investment trends, identifying that global venture funding reached $370.8 billion in 2024, despite a decrease in the number of deals.

In 2025, the growth of stablecoins is also expected to accelerate, especially among small and medium-sized enterprises due to cost-effective transfers and instant settlements.

“Stablecoins will see explosive growth, particularly among small and medium-sized businesses, as on-chain dollars allow for cheaper transfers and enable instant settlement.”

Johann Scheiderammann, the former Swiss President, remarked on the country’s swift rise in the blockchain arena. “I honestly did not expect Switzerland to establish itself as one of the leading and most dynamic blockchain nations in the world in such a short time.”
