What Are AI Tokens?
Artificial intelligence (AI) tokens are a category of cryptocurrency projects that leverages the power of AI technology in various ways. They either develop or fuel AI-based projects, applications, and services, such as decentralised computer networks, decentralised AI marketplaces, AI-powered trading algorithms, AI-driven decentralised autonomous organisations (DAOs), and many others. These tokens serve different purposes, such as a means of payment for transactions on the AI platform or as a way of conferring governance rights to holders.
In this current market cycle, the intersection of blockchain and AI mainly falls into the categories of decentralised compute, zero-knowledge machine learning (zkML), and decentralised AI Agent. A non-exhaustive list of projects, along with other emerging subcategories, is mapped out below.
Many of these tokens can be bought in the Crypto.com App and on the Exchange. Below is a complete list of all AI-related tokens currently available.
Decentralised Compute AI Tokens on Crypto.com

7. NEAR Protocol (NEAR)
NEAR Protocol was created by the NEAR Collective as a community-run cloud computing platform that can achieve up to 100,000 transactions per second (tps). It also features human-readable addresses and a more straightforward onboarding process for decentralised application (dapp) developers.
The native token, NEAR, serves as the core medium of exchange within the platform’s ecosystem and is mainly used by validators for staking; NEAR is distributed as rewards to these validators in exchange for serving the network.
8. Internet Computer (ICP)
Internet Computer (ICP) is a public blockchain network that combines the power of individual computers into a seamless universe. It is designed to host smart contracts built on an advanced decentralised protocol, known as Internet Computer Protocol (ICP). Its native token, ICP, is a utility token with multiple functions:
As a governance token, it can be staked to exercise those governance rights. As a utility token, it can be burned to obtain ‘cycles‘ which serves as gas for computation and storage in canister smart contracts. In addition, it can also be minted to reward ‘node machine‘ providers for providing that compute and storage. Finally, ICP tokens can be used to participate in decentralisation swaps
9. Ocean Protocol (OCEAN)
Ocean Protocol (OCEAN) leverages AI to unlock large-scale data sharing while preserving privacy.
