AI-powered projects represent one of the most exciting sectors in the cryptocurrency space — but with so many to choose from, it’s hard to find the ones most worthy of your attention. Fear not! We’re here to separate the wheat from the chaff. Here are the 10 best AI-based projects to look out for in 2018.

Cryptoindex

Cryptoindex is an exciting new AI-powered platform built to, essentially, predict the next Bitcoin.

It accomplishes this through the creation of a cryptocurrency market benchmark known as the Cryptoindex100, which utilizes a one-of-a-kind Zorax algorithm to create a fully-automated index — calculated from a plethora of data imports and sources.

With Cryptoindex, each coin is constantly revalued via a feed of neural networks, removing human bias and emotion from the equation entirely. If you’re in the market for decentralized, AI-based investment opportunities, Cryptoindex is one project you won’t want to miss out on.

Singularity

SingularityNET is a full-stack decentralized protocol which lets anyone create, share, and monetize AI services at scale.

The project boasts a robust team of leading minds in the machine learning and blockchain space, which is facilitating the democratization of AI technology to the world. Thanks to SingularityNET, a global network of AI algorithms, services, and agents is open to anyone and everyone in the world.



SingularityNET is most widely known for its work on Sophia, the world’s most expressive robot. Sophia uses a slew of modules allowing for sight, hearing, and empathetic responses — many of which will be open-source.

MATRIX

MATRIX is an open source public intelligent blockchain platform designed to usher in a new generation of blockchain technology by leveraging the latest AI technological advancements to resolve the industry’s challenges.

The project fuses blockchain and AI technologies in a manner which affords it the ability to construct a revolutionary cryptocurrency capable of supporting incredibly fast transaction speeds while, at the same time, being accessible to general users. Additionally, it boasts robust security against hackers and malicious attacks and offers flexible operations for advanced users.

Peculium

Peculium seamlessly combines the traditional savings economy with the cryptocurrency markets to create a one-of-a-kind savings platform powered by automated machine learning, AI, big data analytics, and Ethereum smart contracts.

Peculium is particularly unique in the fact that it effectively builds a bridge between traditional economies and the nascent crypto-economy which, in turn, breaks down barriers, promotes stability, increases confidence, and creates an endeavor in which both sides benefit.

From both an individual and institutional perspective, Peculium is one project worth taking a look at in 2018.



AICoin

AICoin purports to be the first investment collective dedicated to building wealth through the power of artificial intelligence and blockchain technology.

Based out of Singapore, the proprietary trading and investment company puts all decisions regarding profit-building strategies in the hands of its token holders. In-house AI models learn to identify and trade the patterns which hide from everyone else in the cryptocurrency space, while token holders vote via smart contract functionality on which start-up should receive investment capital. As time progresses, investments are sold for a profit, which is added to the ones being generated from the trading of cryptocurrencies — effectively marrying short and long-term capital generation strategies.

AUTONIO

AUTONIO claims to be the first decentralized AI-powered trading robot that utilizes years of knowledge from Wall Street’s automated high-frequency trading industry to generate buy and sell signals from sophisticated analysis of cryptocurrency trends.

The project uses trading bots and algorithmic trading via pre-programmed software which analyzes market actions — including but not limited to time, price, orders, and volume. Anyone interested in using AI to get ahead in the cryptocurrency trading space would be wise to check out AUTONIO.

AdHive

AdHive is the first AI-controlled influencer marketing platform which is easily scalable, global, and looking towards the future of advertising. It fully automates ad placement with influencers, meaning the placement of an ad with 1000 influencers takes just as much time as the placement with only one.

The project uses AI to recognize an influencer as performed the advertiser’s task, then commands the execution of payment via a smart contract. In doing so, AdHive successfully sets a new standard for native advertising by revolutionizing the business model for influencer marketing platforms while, at the same time, enabling fast scalability across different markets.

Crypto Angel

Crypto Angel is an AI-powered and blockchain-based virtual life assistant capable of understanding and predicting human intentions. The project aims to offer a unique system capable of serving as an “independent future consultant in uncertain, unknowable and unpredictable future time frames.”

Crypto Angel will work by synchronizing the experiences and knowledge from millions of personal mindest data files in a “Mastermind” realized through the use of machine learning and processing algorithms and blockchain concepts, including hashing security and versioning control.

Few projects aim to accomplish such an ambitious goal as Crypto Angel, so don’t let this one fly under your radar.

Sentigraph

Sentigraph is an exciting new blockchain and AI-powered platform used to gauge the sentiments of users’ reactions to future events by using an enhanced algorithm and leveraging the cognitive abilities of IBM Watson.

The project will likely prove invaluable to social media users on Twitter and Instagram, where the utilization of hashtags is key. Don’t sleep on Sentigraph’s potential.

DateCoin

Online dating is already a hugely-popular enterprise, but DateCoin aims to change the game by offering a new international dating service with reliable growth mechanics based on a global expansion strategy to enter new markets and increase the market’s audience.

DateCoin uses blockchain technology to take care of the one problem which plagues the online dating industry — user identification and verification. No one wants to get Catfished or deal with bots, and DateCoin prevents such unwanted experiences from happening by blending AI with neural networks.

Best of all, DateCoin is backed by the proven dating service Denim, lending more legitimacy to the project than is often found in the broader cryptocurrency space.
