- Cronos zkEVM looks set to be the next blockchain to play host to the AI Agent Craze.
- The newly launched project promises to bolster Cronos’ goals of achieving greater integration between AI and blockchain.
- Users can join in on the latest frenzy with a few simple steps.
In the quest to find intersections between crypto and AI, a new meta has emerged for crypto ‘enjoyers‘: autonomous software that leverages AI to interact with the blockchain called tokenized AI agents.
Made popular by Truth Terminal, the bot associated with the popular memecoin Goatseus Maximus (GOAT), these new crypto players are now emerging across different blockchains as projects seek to bolster activity from the hype. The Crypto.com-linked Ethereum Layer 2 Cronos zkEVM is the latest blockchain to host this trend.
AgentFun.AI Goes Live
Cronos zkEVM looks set to be the next blockchain to play host to the AI agent craze. On Wednesday, November 27, AgentFun.AI went live on the blockchain, allowing users to create and trade tokenized AI agents.

According to AgentFun.AI, users can imbue these AI agents with unique traits and grow fanbases around them. These AI agents will also be able to unlock new abilities as interest in them grows.
Specifically, at a market cap of $127,100, the agent can interact on Telegram and have a DEX-based liquidity pool. Further, the agent can interact on X at a market cap of $1.27 million.
The project has been tipped to bolster Cronos’ goals of achieving greater integration between AI and blockchain technology.
"The launch of AgentFun.AI will stimulate adoption and experimentation of the first AI agents on Cronos zkEVM. In the process it will support Cronosโ strategy of becoming a leading AI agent-powered ecosystem. This will encourage other creators to launch AI agent dapps, causing a wave of innovation to flourish on Cronos," the project asserted in a statement.
Users can join in on the latest frenzy with a few simple steps.
How To Use AgentFun.AI
To create AI agents on Cronos zkEVM, users simply need to head to the AgentFun.AI platform, connect their wallet, and click on “+ New agent.” However, the agent creation process requires some AGENTFUN tokens, which can be purchased on the Cronos zkEVM-based DEX H2 Finance.
Several crypto community members appear to have already jumped on the platform to launch their own agents and speculate on the associated tokens as tokens tied to agents like I AM GROK, Crypto ARENA, and ZKIP rake in thousands of dollars in market cap.
On the Flipside
- It remains to be seen whether the AI agent will catch on to Cronos zkEVM as it has on Solana.
- The AI agent trend could easily become a passing fad, as with many crypto narratives that have come and gone.
Why This Matters
AgentFun.AI offers creative ways for users to find expression using AI and blockchain. It also promises to help drive Cronos zkEVM adoption.
