AI Coins That Performed Well in August 2024’s Third Week
The crypto market has had a bullish week on average. Like many altcoins, Artificial Intelligence (AI) coins were not left out of the rally.
While many AI-themed cryptos jumped, Numeraire (NMR), Marlin (POND), and Bittensor (TAO) recorded the highest gains. Here’s how it happened.
Numeraire (NMR)
Numeraire (NMR) is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum blockchain and developed by Numerai, an AI-focused firm based in San Francisco.
This week, NMR’s price surged nearly 50%, reaching a high of $18.32, its highest since July 26, before slightly dropping to $17.07 at press time. The price increase was driven by growing buying pressure, as indicated on the daily chart.
On August 5, NMR’s price was below $10, and its Relative Strength Index (RSI) signaled an oversold condition. Typically, an RSI reading below 30.00 indicates oversold conditions, while a reading above 70.00 suggests overbought levels. As shown below, the RSI increased as buying momentum picked up, contributing to the token’s price jump.

On Thursday, the reading later hit the overbought point, which led to the recent retracement. Should the momentum continue to fall, NMR’s price might decline to the underlying support at $14.81. However, if bullish dominance comes into play, the value could rise toward $19.19
Marlin (POND)
POND, the native utility token of Marlin, an open protocol that provides the required infrastructure for Web3 projects, saw its price increase by 26.94% in the last seven days. At press time, this AI coin is trading at $0.015.
From the image below, we observed the Bull Bear Power (BBP) is in the positive region. The BBP measures the capability of sellers to drag prices down or the strength of buyers in lifting a crypto value up.
If the reading is negative, bears are in control, and the price might decrease. However, a positive reading, such as in POND’s case, suggests that bulls are dominant. Thus, if this continues, the price of the Marlin utility token could rise to $0.017.
However, if bears eventually neutralize bull power, the AI coin price might drop to $0.014 or as low as $0.012.
Bittensor (TAO)
The final AI coin that performed well this week is Bittensor (TAO), an open-source protocol enabling decentralized, blockchain-based machine-learning networks.
TAO’s price has surged by 25.70% in the past seven days, including a 14% increase in the last 24 hours. The price jump is likely linked to Grayscale’s recent launch of investment funds associated with the cryptocurrency.
Currently trading at $339.92, TAO bulls have successfully defended the key $260 support level, which was crucial for the recent upswing. Increased buying pressure pushed the token above resistance levels at $290.64 and $303.95.
At the moment, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator has moved out of the negative zone, suggesting accumulation is dominating over distribution. If accumulation continues, TAO could hit $371.40 before the weekend ends.

However, if profit-taking occurs, the token’s bullish momentum might fade, leading to a possible drop below $300.

WisdomTree Europe Launches XRP ETP
ETF issuer WisdomTree’s European division just announced a new ETP based on XRP. This product is currently available in four EU countries, which has led XRP’s price to jump slightly.
ETPs are a common issuer strategy to earn revenue without ETF approval, but Europe will not necessarily approve one even if the US does so.
WisdomTree’s XRP ETP
WisdomTree, one of the Bitcoin ETF issuers in the US, announced that its European branch is offering an exchange-traded product (ETP) based on XRP. This new product is currently available in Germany, Switzerland, France, and the Netherlands. A growing number of issuers have filed for an XRP ETF, but WisdomTree is taking a slightly different tack.
“The WisdomTree Physical XRP ETP offers a simple, secure, and low-cost way to gain exposure to XRP, one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Backed 100% by XRP, XRPW is the lowest-priced XRP ETP in Europe, providing direct spot price exposure,” the announcement claimed.
The possibility of an official XRP ETF is growing with the current bull market, and Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse considers it “inevitable.” Still, it hasn’t happened yet, and ETP offerings allow issuers to somewhat address customers’ requirements. BitWise, which has also filed for an XRP ETF in the US, recently acquired a European ETP issuer to enter the same market.
WisdomTree, however, is no stranger to this market strategy. In May this year, it won approval to offer ETPs based on Bitcoin and Ethereum to British investors.
The UK has not yet approved a full ETF for either of these assets, but WisdomTree still gained market access. Even a fraction of the XRP market could also prove lucrative; the asset’s value spiked today.
WisdomTree Europe’s strategy page does not describe any further actions upon full approval. Even if the US approves an XRP ETF under the SEC’s new leadership, that won’t necessarily benefit WisdomTree’s European branch. For now, these ETPs built on XRP will have to suffice for this market.
