So over the weekend, I have been digging into Web3 projects that blend AI, digital identity, and community beyond the usual noise and hype.One project that quietly stood out for me was $ANI. I first noticed it through some low-key AI x anime chatter. Did not think much at the time, but it has been steadily building. At its core is a goth-styled 3D anime character, fully integrated into xAI’s Grok in “Companion Mode” not just for looks, but with real interactive depth.Lately, it has been gaining traction, and the momentum feels familiar like what we saw with early stage gems such as $RFC and $HOUSE. Am not calling it a guaranteed moonshot, but the concept is unique enough to keep a close eye on. let us wait and see where it goes.
