The small gem in the Sui ecosystem, AIA, has already made it into the top 10 in 24-hour trading volume over the past few days, surpassing Sui by 2x. I’m really happy to have been one of the early advisors supporting @DeAgentAI. Although we’re still far from the real “celebration” moment, and the performance of the secondary market prices doesn’t prove much—it’s just a numbers game—the ultimate test will be whether they can truly deliver products, land real business use cases, and get listed on major exchanges for spot trading. That said, reaching these kinds of numbers at this stage is definitely surprising. Many friends assume that a project with such strong price movement must have a powerful background, but that’s not the case. The project has been around for over 3 years, but DeAgentAI’s journey has been full of ups and downs. What left a deep impression on me was about half a year ago, during the worst market conditions. I had dinner with their co-founder @ayongaBTC, and he sighed, saying that the cards they were dealt at the start were like a string of phone numbers—not even a pair of Queens. But the entire team kept pushing forward. The core founding team hasn’t changed over the years, constantly trial-and-erroring to find the right direction. That’s why some people jokingly call them “three-surname slaves.” I’ve always felt that anyone who slaps such a label on others has probably never started a business themselves. If you’ve ever genuinely tried to build something, you’d realize that being called a “three-surname slave” is actually a compliment to entrepreneurs. It proves that the team has been groping in the dark, repeatedly failing, hitting walls, but still refusing to stop and continuing to search for the right path. Please note that the secondary market carries significant risks and volatility. This article contains no investment advice.
