The global virtual influencer market is growing rapidly, fueled by advances in immersive technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). According to data from Antix, an AI-powered SaaS platform that enhances digital interactions, the virtual influencer industry alone is set to reach $15 billion by 2025, with engagement rates up to three times higher than those of traditional human influencers.
This anticipated growth reflects a broader shift toward enhanced digital experiences. Beyond influencers, the digital human market as a whole is projected to soar to $30 billion by 2030, with an annual growth rate of 20%. Antix further predicts that digital humans will feature in 50% of all new games and VR content within the next two years.
The team behind Antix, which previously contributed to high-profile projects such as Game of Thrones and World of Tanks, is now developing a next-generation platform to streamline digital interactions. With extensive expertise in digital humans and Web3 technologies, Antix is poised to simplify the creation of ultra-realistic, intelligent digital human avatars, integrating advanced AI support. Recently, Antix announced the launch of its own ANTIX token, designed to offer users early, exclusive access to these groundbreaking digital creations.
Breaking Down Antix’s AI Digital Avatars
Renowned by entertainment giants like Warner Bros., EA Sports, and HBO, Antix addresses the intricacies of digital interaction by creating hyper-realistic digital humans using advanced data analytics and artificial intelligence. Leveraging real-time capabilities with game engines and generative AI, Antix’s technology scans and recognizes objects, transforming faces into detailed 3D models. It also captures precise lip-sync and hand movements for both real and digital humans, resulting in lifelike avatars.
Through its AI-driven efficiencies, Antix significantly reduces the time and costs of digital creation. Processes that once required weeks and substantial budgets can now be completed within hours at a fraction of the original cost. By making digital humans accessible to a broader audience, Antix aims to attract more content creators and connect them with brands and Web3 projects through monetization opportunities. Users can buy, sell, or rent digital assets on the Antix marketplace, realizing a unique opportunity to engage with the digital economy.
Antix’s digital avatars have potential applications across industries, including film production, fashion and modeling, advertising, e-commerce, customer support, and more. Unlike conventional AI avatars, Antix’s creations are blockchain-backed, and authenticated with NFT passports to ensure ownership, intellectual property, and user control.
ANTIX Token to Enhance User Engagement in the Antix Ecosystem
The ANTIX token is designed to boost user engagement within the Antix ecosystem. Holders of ANTIX tokens can access exclusive functionalities, from purchasing tailored subscriptions to participating in Antix’s marketplace and NFT auctions. Additionally, the token provides an opportunity for passive income through staking, while granting users the right to participate in Antix’s governance. The platform will also reward its most active community members with future airdrops and additional ANTIX tokens.
With a total supply capped at one billion tokens, ANTIX will be available to investors in the next two weeks, with 20 million ANTIX tokens offered at exclusive rates during the initial sale.
To manage inflationary pressures and foster long-term value, ANTIX will employ a built-in burning mechanism, periodically reducing the token supply. This approach is expected to support sustainable value appreciation, making the ANTIX token an attractive investment.
Growing Investor Interest in New AI Projects
Following its launch, ANTIX is set to join the ranks of AI tokens gaining traction within the crypto sector. According to Spot On Chain, both first-time buyers and ‘Smart Money’ wallets are showing increased interest in new AI projects like ParallelAI (PAI), which has seen an influx of $720,000 in the past week alone.
Additionally, GRASS, another new AI token that debuted on exchanges on October 29, has demonstrated strong growth, emerging as one of the week’s top gainers with double-digit growth.
The combined market cap of AI tokens now exceeds $26 billion, with leaders like NEAR Protocol (NEAR), Internet Computer (ICP), and Bittensor (TAO) paving the way.
