On social media platform X, crypto trader and analyst Altcoin Sherpa spotlighted some Artificial intelligence (AI) altcoins set on a bullish trajectory. He also mentioned three coins that are primed for bullish performance in the mid-term time frame. In an X post , Sherpa expressed optimism about KAITO, an AI-powered Web3 information platform. The analyst targeted a $2.5 price or higher for the altcoin, representing approximately a 64.5% increase from the current level. As of this writing, KAITO was trading at $1.5, down 26.6% over the previous day. The market cap is pegged at $367 million, while trading volume plummeted 29.9% to $477.8 million. The decline in KAITO’s price coincides with a broader market downturn, which saw Bitcoin (BTC) drop to $83,745. In addition to KAITO, Altcoin Sherpa identified AI Big Complex (ARC) as another altcoin in the AI sector that is set to balloon soon. The analyst revealed he holds a sizable stack of ARC in their crypto portfolio, emphasizing his confidence in the asset’s future growth. Meanwhile, the altcoin is still facing volatility. Despite this, Sherpa believes ARC is likely sitting at a local bottom and ready to climb higher. He added that the four-hour chart’s 200 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) acts as a stop. As a result, he is targeting ARC, hitting $0.19 at the entry level. Currently, ARC is trading at $0.16, representing a 26% decrease in the last 24 hours. For ARC to hit $0.19, it would require soaring by 18.75% from the current price. Furthermore, the trader lists three mid-term altcoins poised for bullish moves. On his watchlist are the layer-one blockchain Sonic (S) and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocol Maker (MKR). He also added one of Story (IP), Ethereum virtual machine (EVM) chain Berachain (BERA), and KAITO to the list. Another AI altcoin tipped for a bull run is WallitIQ (WLTQ). The project integrates biometric authentication, allowing only authorized users access. With Escrow Connect, users can engage in secure transactions with complete confidence. This AI-driven altcoin is preparing for its beta platform launch, and presale demand is reaching critical mass. As noted in our earlier post, a Bank of America Expert said WallitIQ (WLTQ) has strong fundamentals to support high growth and bring huge gains. Additionally, analysts spotlighted RCO Finance (RCOF), Filecoin (FIL), and Injective Protocol (INJ) as top contenders for explosive gains in 2025. As highlighted in our previous article, RCO Finance offers real-time portfolio adjustments powered by AI, ensuring investments align with market changes without manual intervention. Analysts also predicted that data protocol Filecoin will surge to about $10.02 in 2025 and that adoption will surge in the coming years. Notably, with the crypto policy in the United States now favoring altcoins, AI tokens may also benefit in the long term.

$SONIC : The price could have formed a price top in wave (2). I still see no clearly bullish pathway from here. A break below $0.26 would confirm the white scenario further.

Aave has officially expanded its version 3 network to the Sonic mainnet, the blockchain platform announced on March 3. The Aave ( AAVE ) v3 deploys on the Sonic ( S ) network follows a recent governance proposal aimed at bringing the decentralized finance protocol’s lending market to the network, previously known as Fantom. Web3 platform and Aave contributor bgdlabs managed the deployment, while Chaos Labs and LlamaRisk conducted the risk assessment. According to the Aave team, on-chain finance and oracle platform Chainlink provides price feeds. Sonic Labs launched its layer-1 mainnet in December 2024, the same month Aave DAO delegate Aave Chan introduced the v3-to-Sonic governance proposal . The AAVE community later approved the proposal, paving the way for the deployment. Going live on the Sonic network marks Aave’s first expansion of the year, further strengthening its presence in the broader DeFi ecosystem. This deployment introduces borrowing and lending opportunities for Sonic users, who can now earn DeFi-related incentives on Aave. According to an announcement on X, Aave and Sonic Labs are offering $15 million in S tokens and $800,000 in AAVE tokens as incentives for early adopters. Users can access these opportunities through an initial list of supported assets, including USDC, WETH, and wS. Explaining the motivation for deploying v3 on Sonic, Aave Chain Initiative noted : “Aave has deployed on multiple promising new L1 and L2 EVM networks and is often one of the largest protocols on these networks. Given the impressive history of the team building Sonic, and the innovations it promises, it represents a strong candidate for deployment of Aave V3. In addition, the fee monetization for apps has potential to be an additional income source for Aave.” Sonic Labs co-founder Andre Cronje recently posited that Sonic “is the only chain where you get paid for the activity you create.” Aave currently has a total value locked of more than $18.7 billion, with this slightly down on the peak of over $22 billion reached on December 14, 2024. Since launching in 2018 on Ethereum, Aave has expanded across multiple networks. It has deployed on Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base, as well as BNB Chain, Avalanche, and Gnosis Chain.
