Kaito price surges amid milestone for Launchpad

The Kaito Capital Launchpad, a platform designed to facilitate public sales for promising blockchain projects, has attracted substantial investor interest.

Within the past few days, the platform has seen a surge in public token sales by artificial intelligence and blockchain-powered projects.

Some of these include a public sale for the video AI model Everlyn, which sold out hours after launch on September 4, 2025.

The project targeted a $2 million raise at a $250 million fully diluted valuation, and sold out amid an oversubscribed event.

Another platform, venture capital-backed Play AI, saw its sale go live on September 8, 2025 and aims to raise over $2 million at a $50 million FDV.

Play AI will see 50% of tokens unlocked at its token generation event set for October 2025.

The Boundless team completed allocations for its public sale on Sept. 2, 2025, after it also saw a significantly oversubscribed sale with $71.5 million pledged.

Demand came from approximately 22,000 investors.

These achievements have fueled Kaito Capital Launchpad to over $170 million in pledged allocations.

KAITO’s price has also picked up as the token benefits from the ecosystem’s growing traction and the success of its launchpad projects.

What’s next for the KAITO price?

Predicting the future trajectory of KAITO’s price is difficult. However, what happens next will likely hinge on several factors.

The Capital Launchpad’s momentum in onboarding projects such as Everlyn AI and playAI Network is signalling sustained investor appetite.

The platform’s ability to consistently attract oversubscribed rounds suggests strong market confidence in Kaito’s broader initiative, with buy-side demand likely to remain elevated.

As such, the token’s price could benefit from this sentiment boost and target highs of $2.92 – the all-time high seen in February 2025.

However, volatility for projects and across the crypto market may allow bears to assert themselves.

Broader market conditions, including regulatory developments and macroeconomic trends, will also play a role.

This means traders may want to keep an eye not just on Kaito AI’s ecosystem but also the overall outlook for cryptocurrencies amid the intersection of AI and decentralised finance.

Key levels to watch on the downside include $1.24 and $1.12.

FLOCK token surges amid Coinbase and Upbit listings

  • Flock, native to decentralized AI platform FLock.io, is one of the tokens to experience a notable price surge in the past 24 hours.
  • The FLOCK token is up double digits but rose over 150% amid listing on major exchanges Coinbase and Upbit.

Flock token’s price rose from lows of $0.25 in early trading to hit highs near $0.69, gaining by over 150% as Coinbase and Upbit listed FLOCK on Base.

The gains left bulls targeting highs last seen in January when FLOCK reached its all-time high of $0.89.

However, profit taking has derailed this milestone as prices drop to lows of $0.47. Flock.io nonetheless still sports more 24-hour gains than LAUNCHCOIN and other top daily performers on the day.

Coinbase and Upbit listings help FLOCK price soar

FLOCK’s price rose as Coinbase added the decentralized AI platform’s native token to Coinbase DEX. The move ignited a price surge for FLock.io, with this happening within hours to see bulls propel from $0.25 to $0.69.

“Big news for DeFi traders! $FLOCK is officially listed on Coinbase DEX and Coinbase Markets. You can now transfer $FLOCK from Base and trade it on Coinbase. Another step forward for decentralized AI,” FLock.io posted on X.

Meanwhile, Coinbase also announced support for FLOCK on Base as it added trading support for SPX6900 (SPX) on the Ethereum network.

The exchange said transfers for the two assets will be available on Coinbase  and Coinbase Exchange in the regions where it offers trading support, with trading set to go live on or after 9AM PT on September 9, 2025 subject to liquidity conditions being met.

SPX-USD and FLOCK-USD trading pairs are set to launch in phases, the exchange said.

Trading support for FLOCK on Coinbase saw the token’s trading volume spike amid heightened demand. Per CoinMarketCap, the daily volume for Flock jumped by more than 2,600% in 24 hours to over $339 million.

It’s a scenario that unfolded as South Korea’s leading exchange Upbit also announced the listing of FLOCK on Base.

This triggered further gains for the token, which rose  more than 150%. Upbit’s support for FLOCK trading pairs in the Korean Won (KRW) market could add to a fresh surge in volume.

What does this mean for FLOCK price?

The dual listings have amplified FLOCK’s visibility and liquidity, likely positioning the project for fresh adoption. Focus on privacy-preserving federated learning and blockchain-based data sovereignty resonates with industries like healthcare and finance, where secure AI model training is key.

Flock’s gains come amid a robust initiative that has seen the FLock Foundation lock millions of FLOCK, helping the project’s long-term vision and growth.

“By locking for the max period, we’re showing our commitment to building lasting value alongside the FLock community,” Flock Foundation said.

Staking support and the latest rapid price spikes suggests FLOCK’s sustained growth could continue. Key price levels to watch include $0.40 and $0.70.
