Virtuals Protocol is on fire this week. VIRTUAL shot up 21% in the last 24 hours to hit $1.63, and it’s now up a whopping 135% on the week. With a market cap crossing $1.06 billion, it’s climbed to the 68th spot among all cryptos.
The sharp rally comes just ahead of TOKEN2049 Dubai, one of the biggest industry events of the year. Jansen Teng, co-founder and CEO of Virtuals Protocol, has been confirmed as a panelist. He’ll be speaking on “Autonomous Agents: When AI Wallets Outnumber Humans”, a discussion that taps into the fast-growing intersection of AI and blockchain.

Trading volume has shot up too—over $535 million moved in the past day alone, marking a 55% jump as interest piles in.
And it’s not just Virtuals riding the wave. The broader market is heating up. Bitcoin is now above $95K, Ethereum’s back over $1,800, and TOKEN2049 is clearly stirring up some serious momentum.
For Virtuals, the timing couldn’t be better. With Jansen Teng stepping onto the TOKEN2049 stage to talk about AI wallets and autonomous agents, the market seems to be locking in on the project’s narrative. The AI angle is hot—and right now, Virtuals is in the thick of it.
