- The U.S. was followed by the UK with a 9% global interest share.
- Bittensor, Render, and Fetch.ai were the most popular AI cryptos in 2024.
Away from the cacophony of Bitcoin [BTC] and memecoins, the crypto market was witnessing the rise of a new sector – the AI altcoins.
Bolstered by chip-making giant Nvidia’s skyrocketing market valuation, OpenAI’s launch of Sora, among other developments, the AI crypto narrative was gaining good ground in 2024.

The most popular AI cryptos in 2024
Apart from the regions on the basis of interest, CoinGecko also highlighted the coins which garnered the most interest in 2024.
Bittensor [TAO] was the most popular AI cryptocurrency in 2024, accounting for 11.95% of the total market interest. This was followed by Render [RNDR] with a 10.18% share, and Fetch.ai [FET] with 8.86%.
RNDR was the biggest AI altcoin in terms of market cap at press time, according to CoinGecko. The token’s price has more than doubled to $11.44 since the start of the year. A similar uptick was observed for TAO in the same time.
AMBCrypto investigated some key technical indicators of the coins to gauge their next moves.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) for RNDR dipped below the overbought territory, suggesting an ongoing correction. However, the broader sentiment was still bullish as it was above the neutral 50 mark.

On the other hand, TAO’s RSI hovered above the neutral mark. A move below it could strengthen bearish narratives.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) for RNDR just crossed below the signal line, revealing bearish tendencies. As for TAO, the MACD has been below the signal line for over a week, with little chances of a crossover.
