During the Asian trading hours, artificial intelligence (AI) altcoins experienced significant depreciation. According to CoinGecko, the AI altcoin category declined by 9%. The market’s attention has shifted to the DeepSeek model, which reportedly outperforms OpenAI. Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency-based gaming sector grapples with investment declines and user base issues.
DeepSeek’s Financial Efficiency Impacts AI Altcoins
DeepSeek shared insights through Hugging Face, revealing that the model was developed with fewer resources than OpenAI. Achieving this success with a budget of only $6 million and limited GPU utilization has astonished the industry. Technology Executive Ali Yılmaz stated, “DeepSeek’s approach could establish a new efficiency standard in the AI field.”
This development has raised concerns about fluctuations in GPU demand. Cryptocurrency investors believe that the spread of cost-effective solutions could alter the sector’s dynamics. However, the sharp decline in AI altcoins indicates that uncertainty will persist in the short term.
GameFi Industry Faces Investment and User Dilemmas
According to CoinGecko, the value of the cryptocurrency-based gaming sector stands at $19 billion. Nevertheless, it has not achieved desired success in competition with traditional gaming giants. DappRadar data shows that investments in the sector have decreased to their lowest levels since 2020, with projects experiencing a 38% drop compared to last year’s $1.8 billion in investment.
Daily active users in blockchain games increased by 421%. However, the sector’s market share in the gaming industry remains between 26-29%. DeFi continues to maintain its leading position, with some older games on platforms like Steam reaching broader audiences than GameFi projects.
Experts emphasize that cryptocurrency projects are struggling to establish a foothold outside of finance. Concerns over the inability to build a sustainable user base highlight the need for new strategies. Recent developments indicate that both AI and GameFi ecosystems must take innovative steps. The level of investor interest and the sector’s adaptability will shape the upcoming months.
