ASI Token Merger Postponed To July In March, Fetch.AI, SingularityNET, and Ocean Protocol, three leading AI blockchain projects, revealed their plan to merge into the ASI token. This move aims to develop a decentralized AI platform to foster technology advancements accessible to a wider audience. On Tuesday, the ASI alliance announced the delay of the token merger from June 13 to July 15, 2024. Per the announcement, the primary reasons for the rescheduling are \u201clogistical requirements\u201d and \u201ctechnical independencies.\u201d It was further explained that the ASI token merger involves managing complex integrations and attention to numerous moving parts. As a result, the delay was a \u201cstrategic decision\u201d to ensure a smooth execution during the process and ensure all \u201cstakeholders\u2019 needs are adequately met.\u201d Humayun Sheikh, Fetch.AI\u2019s CEO, and ASI\u2019s Chairman, reassured the community that the alliance\u2019s vision remained unchanged despite the delay. This temporary delay does not impact the substantial progress we have made towards creating a decentralized superintelligence network. Our teams are actively working with centralized exchanges to finalize the remaining steps. We appreciate the continued support and patience of our community and stakeholders as we work through these final logistical steps. SingularityNET Foundation\u2019s CEO, Ben Goertzel, explained that they are working on integrating the three companies’ AI and blockchain technology. Additionally, he stated his excitement for the upcoming milestone: The finalization of the 3-way tokenomic merger on July 15 will be a major milestone, and we anticipate a series of progressively more exciting milestones after that as we leverage our $ASI token-based network to move toward increasingly capable AI systems and in time actual superintelligence. FET, AGIX, And OCEAN Face 8% Drop After the announcement, the three AI tokens saw a negative price impact in the following hours.
