Chinese-made DeepSeek AI changed the balance in the artificial intelligence industry by leaving behind US-based models with its performance. While this development fueled the debate over the US’s artificial intelligence leadership, the total market value of the sector decreased by 7.5% in a week to 44.1 billion dollars.
Overview of Crypto and AI Markets
The crypto market experienced a significant correction the other day. Bitcoin fell below the $100,000 mark, losing 5.3% in value, but rose above $100,000 again, increasing its market dominance to 59.2%. Altcoins, on the other hand, faced harsh sales.
The situation was no different in the artificial intelligence industry. Nine of the 10 largest AI tokens by market cap closed the week in the red. However, some tokens managed to rise despite the overall decline in the industry.
AI Tokens That Outperformed and Suffered Losses
Despite adverse market conditions, some AI tokens have performed strongly. For example, zKML (ZKML) increased by 22.8%, while ZIGChain (ZIG) grew by 6.57%. These tokens reflect the tendency of investors to turn to strong projects during downturns.

(BULLY) experienced a major decline, losing 29% and Limitus (LMT) 24.7%. These declines reveal the weak confidence environment and general lack of liquidity in the market.
Developments in DeepSeek and Artificial Intelligence Ecosystem
Chinese-made DeepSeek AI stands out as a groundbreaking model in the industry. The model managed to achieve the same performance as OpenAI’s models while reducing costs by 98%. Offering an innovative approach with its open source structure, DeepSeek quickly became the most popular application in the US Apple App Store.
In addition, OpenAI introduced the new “Operator Agent” model. This model enables users to autonomously perform repetitive tasks on the web. Additionally, the Virtuals protocol has expanded to the Solana blockchain, opening up new opportunities for creators and agencies.
