Concerns Emerge as ASI Alliance Merges Tokens in Phase 1

In Summary

  • Experts worry about unclear collaboration and the impact on token value due to increased supply
  • Increased liquidity and a streamlined approach to developing AI applications could attract new investors
  • Holders of AGIX and OCEAN tokens may see temporary exchange balance fluctuations during conversion
  • Three AI projects (SingularityNET, Fetch.ai, Ocean Protocol) are merging tokens into a single ASI token


New York– Monday, July 15, 2024– Concerns and excitement voiced in the public following the launch of Phase 1 of the ASI token merger which began on July 1.

The merger, led by the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (ASI), aims to consolidate the tokens of three blockchain projects – SingularityNET (AGIX), Fetch.ai (FET), and Ocean Protocol (OCEAN) – into a single token under the ASI banner.

While the initiative promises a more unified approach to developing artificial intelligence (AI) applications, some experts voice concerns.

One key worry is the lack of clarity surrounding future collaboration between the merged entities.

Though their tokens merge, SingularityNET, Fetch.ai, and Ocean Protocol will remain separate businesses as well.

This raises questions about the actual level of integration and collaboration that will take place in the future.

Another concern lies in the potential impact on token utility.

The future use cases of the ASI token for each individual project remain undefined.

The merger effectively doubles the total token supply, some analysts claimed that this could potentially lead to a decrease in the value of each individual ASI token compared to its pre-merger counterparts.

Despite these concerns, the merger also presents potential benefits.

Increased liquidity for the ASI token and a more streamlined approach to developing AI applications could attract new investors and developers to the ecosystem. However, only time will tell if the ASI token merger will ultimately prove to be a successful venture.

Additionally, there are concerns about the effectiveness of lifestyle segmentation for different product categories. While it might be highly relevant for some products, such as clothing, its impact on others, like groceries, might be less clear.

Many reports said that holders of AGIX and OCEAN tokens would not be affected by the initial phase of the ASI token merger.

While FET holders don’t need to take any immediate action, AGIX and OCEAN holders may experience temporary fluctuations in their exchange balances during the conversion process, one report said.


One report said:
“As of the latest update, the price of Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (FET) stands at $1.40, with a 24-hour trading volume of $193.2 Million. The open interest in FET has seen a 4.69% increase over the past 24 hours, currently valued at $48.1 Million, depicting high likelihood of growing interest as a result of the migration process.

“However, despite the growing open interest, FET has experienced a 0.94% price decline in the last 24 hours and a 4.17% decrease over the past week. With a circulating supply of 2.5 Billion FET, Artificial Superintelligence Alliance currently holds a market capitalization of $3.5 Billion.”1
