Tortola, British Virgin Islands, December 17th,
2024, Chainwire
According to the prediction of Ransu Salovaara, CEO of
TokenBuilder and a crypto veteran since 2014, the next twelve
months will be pivotal in boosting transparency for token launches
and integrating AI technology into new crypto projects. Salovaara,
who helped raise token sales for major names in the industry,
believes 2025 will be dominated by two major trends:
- Fair Token Offerings (FTOs) — A push for more
reasonable valuations and more equitable access for everyday
investors
- AI Tokens — A major leap forward where crypto
meets advanced AI agents, opening fresh opportunities for projects
and investors alike
“2024 was phenomenal, with Bitcoin hitting $100,000 on
December 4th—CoinMarketCap confirms this milestone,” says
Salovaara. “Thousands of meme-coins also launched this year, many
reaching secondary markets, as tracked by BDC Consulting. But 2025
is set to be even bigger. I predict Bitcoin will push towards
$150k–$200k, and meme-coins will hopefully adopt stricter
compliance. Even more exciting is how AI is finally converging with
crypto, spawning a new generation of AI-driven utility
tokens.”
1. Fair Token Offerings (FTOs): Leveling the Playing
Field
While Bitcoin’s and meme-coin's rise dominated headlines in
2024, these trends also highlighted how rampant scams and rug-pulls
remain. Meme-coins in particular saw thousands of launches, not all
created equal. Private insiders often orchestrated low-float,
high-valuation tactics—leaving retail investors at a
disadvantage.
To counter these, TokenBuilder has pioneered an FTO Rating
system, providing a transparent scoring framework for new token
offerings. This rating focuses on five pillars:
- Access: Retail investor inclusion in private
rounds
- Appreciation: Fair token valuations with
upside potential
- Supply: At least 20% circulating supply after
token launch to avoid price manipulation
- Liquidity: Early secondary market trading
plans (DEX or otherwise)
- Transparency: Public, identifiable teams
rather than anonymous founders
“We want to end the days of anonymous projects,”
Salovaara says. “A legitimate project should be proud of its team,
structure, and open to scrutiny.”
FTOcalendar.com is TokenBuilder’s curated platform listing
upcoming offerings. Each token must achieve at least one star on
the FTO Rating scale to even be considered—raising the bar for
fairness in Web3 fundraising. Although the five-pillar overview
remains the core, TokenBuilder continues refining the FTO Rating
for greater sophistication.
2. AI Tokens: The Next Billion-Dollar Crypto
Sector
According to Salovaara, For most of 2024, AI was overshadowed by
surging meme-coins and the mainstream adoption of Bitcoin ETFs. Yet
behind the scenes, developers have been blending language models
(OpenAI, Grog, Llama) with crypto utility.
In practice, these AI tokens will:
- Use AI-agent frameworks (like AI16Z’s “Eliza”) to enable
advanced, automated services
- Offer exclusive data and analytics functionalities
- Function as native payment methods for discounted or premium AI
services
“We see AI tokens as the next wave of utility
tokens—where owning them isn’t just about price speculation, but
unlocking actual AI-based features,” Salovaara explains. “Expect
many new AI-token launches by mid-2025, each aiming to monetize
everything from data analytics to real-time predictions. We will
launch our first version of ‘Eliza’ in January–February
2025.”
3. TokenBuilder’s Roadmap for 2025 and
Beyond
Building on a decade of crypto experience, TokenBuilder is
developing a Fair Token Offering launchpad focused on AI-driven
tokens. Using on-chain sales accessible to everyone, the platform
plans to offer:
- $TBAI launch on Uniswap 2nd of January
2025
- Multiple token offering methods: Fixed-price
sales, Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP) auctions, and more
- Multi-chain support: Ethereum, Base, and
possibly other Ethereum Layer-2 networks
- AI-Powered Tools: AI-powered tokenomics
analysis, compliance tracking, and advanced analytics
Alongside the FTO Calendar and an “AI-Agent Army” for compliance
and tokenization, TokenBuilder aims to streamline the entire
process of launching new tokens in a fair, open, and transparent
manner.
“We believe the ‘AI-Agent Army’ will be central to many
utility tokens from 2025 onward,” Salovaara adds. “Imagine an
AI-powered framework that automates compliance checks, optimizes
liquidity, and offers real-time market intelligence for both
investors and founders. That’s the future we’re
building.”
