According to blockchain analytics platform Dappradar, artificial intelligence activities on blockchain have almost doubled since the start of the year, with funding increasingly increasingly on trendy technologies, and users are piling up on trendy technologies.
AI-related on-chain activities have soared 86% so far in 2025, with unique, active wallets per day participating in AI distributed apps (DAPPS), Dappradar said in a report on Thursday.

With the increase in daily users, the AI app market share has grown from 9% at the beginning of the year to 19%, with blockchain games reaching 20%.
Sara Gherghelas, an analyst at Dappradar, said that AI growth is not just “hype” but rather a “structural shift” in the way users are involved in decentralized applications.
“Through Defi Copilots, Social Agents, or Autonomous Gaming Assistants, AI Agents are becoming the new Onchain interface layer.”
Dappradar predicted in May that programs that can autonomously perform blockchain actions such as AI agents use, trading and more will soon outperform the game.
AI Agent Funded 9% or More
According to a report by Gherghelas, $13.9 billion was raised in 2025 by the AI Agent Project, representing a 9.4% increase compared to 2024.
She added that while this number is still ongoing compared to AI funding for companies like Openai, “it is worth noting that funding in the AI agent space is currently over or exceeds the verticals of other Web3s, such as blockchain games.”
“In Web3, investors see AI agents as new and primitive, which allows users to reconstruct the way they interact with protocols, navigate DAPP, or automate their personal financial strategies,” she said.

Gherghelas said 2025 could be the first year that attracts more capital than “other Web3 verticals.”
AI users are growing all over the world
Dappradar's data recorded between January and June found that most AI DAPP users it can find are based in Europe and account for 26% of all interactions.
The largest share of 33% users comes from unspecified regions and users who have VPNs or other anonymous sources. Asia was approaching Europe with a slightly lower 22% of users, while North America continued at 15.8%.
Gherghelas said global spreads indicate that “AI agents are not localized phenomenon.”
“Whether it's Defi agents who manage Asian transactions, social agents who represent European users, or gaming companions who interact with North American players, the demand is diverse and increasingly crossing the continent,” she added.
