Odaily Planet Daily reported that Primitive Ventures investor Marco Manoppo shared his experience of missing the opportunity to invest in Virtuals Protocol, which saw a hundred-fold return, on X. Marco reflected that despite being in early contact with the project, he failed to invest in time due to a misjudgment of the trend combining cryptocurrency and AI. He emphasized that the Virtuals team achieved rapid iterations through cost advantages in Southeast Asia and stood out in the market with a pragmatic business orientation. Marco predicts that 2025 will see a surge in the integration of cryptocurrency and AI, particularly in innovations related to AI agent tokenization, consumer applications, and payment sectors.
