In early 2026, AI has returned to the center of the crypto market — not as a short-lived narrative, but as part of trading infrastructure. AI-powered tokens continue to attract attention, while AI-assisted trading tools are increasingly embedded into exchanges, strategy platforms, and risk systems.

Understanding this shift requires separating market narratives from the actual mechanics of AI-driven trading.
