Et Grok-token – ikke TOkenet, da det ikke er officielt knyttet til Elon Musks nyligt lancerede AI-tjeneste – nåede en markedsværdi på $160 millioner kun otte dage efter dens debut.
But as an 8-day-old meme coin that’s not actually issued by the AI chatbot that it shares a name with, it’s experiencing a lot of volatility. While this story was being written, the GROK token’s market capitalization dropped as low as $78 million according to DexTools.
Its value has soared by 13,000% over the past week, with a doubling of prices in just 24 hours. But to be clear, that means it has reached an all-time high of $0.02, according to CoinGecko. Despite having 11,500 holders and significant trading volumes, the liquidity for GROK-USD is limited, which raises the risk of a price crash if large amounts are sold off.
I mellemtiden har Grok – AI-chatbot-tjenesten lanceret af den sociale app X, kendt for sin mindre censurerede og humoristiske natur – bidraget til tokenets popularitet, på trods af at tokens selv ikke er tilknyttet den faktiske AI-tjeneste. Den lette skabelse af tokens og handel på decentraliserede børser har ført til en spredning af sådanne spekulative aktiver.
It’s a meme-fueled narrative that’s played out many times before. A BALD token (named because Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is bald) launched on Base, a Layer 2 that the crypto exchange incubated, before its creators gjort af med millioner. Pepecoin garnered tons of attention and saw its market capitalization surpass $1.5 billion before the team behind the meme coin darling transferred millions worth of PEPE tokens to exchanges without warning. And there’s still an entire CoinGecko category for dog-themed coins for tokens that pay homage to the original meme coin: dogecoin.
The sense that there are layers of memes in the GROK launch is further heightened by the fact that the Tesla CEO and founder himself is a self-professed Hundefader. He’s been embroiled in a class action retssag alleging that he timed his buying and selling of DOGE with social media posts that would hike up the price. Since buying Twitter for $44 billion, he’s to gange drillet that he would change the company’s logo to the Shiba Inu behind the Doge meme.
Meanwhile, Musk’s Grok AI will be competing with several recent high-profile AI chatbot launches. One of the contenders is Googles Bard, an experimental chatbot aimed at expanding Google’s reach to billions of users, which highlights the tech giant’s ambition in the AI space. And there’s the main competitor: OpenAI. The company introduced ChatGPT Plus, a subscription-based version of its widely used AI chatbot, ChatGPT, offering enhanced features.
Sociale medieplatforme er også på vej ind i kampen, hvor Snapchat afslører "My AI", en chatbot drevet af den seneste version af OpenAIs GPT-teknologi. I mellemtiden har LinkedIn lanceret en ny AI-chatbot designet som en "jobsøgende coach", der komplementerer deres suite af generative AI-værktøjer til Premium-medlemmer, hvilket faldt sammen med deres annoncering om at overstige 1 milliard medlemmer.
