• Griffin AI received a second OpenAI milestone trophy after surpassing 20 billion tokens processed.
• Growth reflects rising reliance on AI agents for crypto research, workflows, and decision support.
• Company aims to convert high usage into durable, utility-driven value across Web3 ecosystems.

User engagement with GriffinAI agents accelerates with 57% month-over-month growth in prompt-driven activity, reinforcing Griffin AI’s position among the most active OpenAI model users in the crypto sector.

6 February 2026— Griffin AI, the AI agent builder for DeFi, today announced its partnership with OpenAI and confirmed it has received a milestone trophy from OpenAI recognizing Griffin AI’s continued high-volume usage of OpenAI models.

Founder Oliver Feldmeier shared the milestone publicly during a recent AMA on X, noting that Griffin AI first received recognition after surpassing 10 billion tokens consumed via OpenAI’s platform, and has now received a second trophy after passing another 10 billion tokens—a sign of accelerating adoption and platform engagement.

Oliver Feldmeier, Founder of Griffin AI said:

In times like these, during the extreme market turmoil in the bear market phase, what counts is that users keep using our agents — and premium usage is paid in our native GAIN token. That organic demand, driven by real utility of our agents, is what matters beyond short-term market movements. This isn’t just a vanity metric. It’s evidence that real users are actively engaging with our agents—triggering prompts, running workflows, and using the platform at meaningful scale.

Customer growth and engagement momentum

Griffin AI has seen steady growth in user adoption and a material increase in usage intensity on the platform.

In recent months, prompt-driven activity triggering Griffin AI agents grew by 57% month-over-month, reflecting a sharp rise in engagement as users increasingly rely on AI agents to support crypto research, decision support, and workflow automation.

While much of today’s activity occurs within the platform—prior to being fully observable on-chain—Griffin AI views these engagement metrics as an early indicator of product-market fit for agent-led experiences in crypto.

Why this matters

This recognition from OpenAI reinforces Griffin AI’s focus on scaling reliable, production-grade AI agent experiences for crypto users.

The token milestone trophies serve as external validation that Griffin AI is operating at top-tier usage levels—positioning the company among the most active OpenAI model consumers in the crypto space.

Key milestones highlighted:

• 20+ billion OpenAI model tokens processed across two recognized usage thresholds
• Second OpenAI milestone trophy received, signaling accelerating platform demand
• 57% month-over-month growth in prompt-generated agent activity in recent months

What’s next: converting demand into durable utility

Griffin AI’s next phase is centred on converting rising usage into measurable end-user value—through commercial-grade agents that can operate across the web, social platforms, and crypto workflows, with a roadmap that ties platform usage to broader ecosystem utility.

Griffin AI also continues to operate a multi-model stack—leveraging OpenAI alongside additional leading models and self-hosted deployments—ensuring performance, resilience, and flexibility as the product scales.

• Bitcoin price plunged to $60,000, its biggest single-day fall since the FTX crash.
• Prices rose to above $66,000 as analysts forecast a potential dead cat bounce.
• Market sentiment remains in extreme fear.

Bitcoin fell sharply on Friday, crashing to lows of $60,000, which ignited widespread selling before swiftly staging a dramatic recovery to around $67,100.

The volatile swing has sent the cryptocurrency market sentiment into extreme fear, with top altcoins, including Ethereum, XRP, and Solana, hitting critical support levels below $1,900, $1.40, and $80, respectively.

But after experiencing one of its most severe single-day plunges in history, can bulls sustain the flip?

Bitcoin sees biggest 24-hour dip since FTX crash

As noted, Bitcoin plummeted more than $10,000 in a matter of hours on Thursday, briefly dipping to lows near $60,000.

While Bitcoin has since recovered some ground and stabilised near $67,000 at the time of writing, the broader market remains under pressure following the cryptocurrency’s sharpest one-day decline since the collapse of FTX in November 2022.

Unlike previous sell-offs triggered by clear catalysts such as regulatory actions or exchange failures, the latest downturn appears to have been driven largely by technical factors.

Analysts have pointed to a wave of liquidations and forced unwinding of highly leveraged positions, as traders who had positioned for continued gains were caught off guard by the sudden reversal in momentum.

Crypto analyst and investor Lark Davis shared the following on X:

There’s discussion that Bitcoin’s dump is part of a bigger domino effect.

People borrowed money to buy Bitcoin, gold, and silver. When prices dropped, lenders said „give us more money NOW or we’ll sell your stuff.“

The problem: People didn’t have cash, so they sold their OTHER…

Data from Coinglass showed that more than $2.6 billion worth of cryptocurrency positions were liquidated over the past 24 hours, with Bitcoin derivatives accounting for the largest share.

The sell-off spread across major altcoins. Ethereum fell below $1,800 for the first time in more than a year, while Solana slid to around $67, its lowest level since December 2023.

XRP also came under heavy pressure, touching lows near $1.13 and raising the risk of a move back below the $1 mark for the token linked to Ripple.

Market participants noted that open interest in Bitcoin futures had climbed to record levels before the downturn, leaving heavily leveraged long positions exposed when prices reversed sharply.

Bitcoin price outlook: dead cat bounce or sustained rally?

As Bitcoin trades near $66,000, traders are weighing whether the rebound marks the start of a sustained recovery or represents a short-lived “dead cat bounce” that could give way to renewed losses.

Bearish sentiment remains dominant, with market confidence sliding to extreme lows.

The CoinMarketCap Fear and Greed Index is currently at 5 out of 100, signalling severe investor anxiety.

Despite this, some analysts argue that supportive factors are still present.

The scale of the recent sell-off, driven in part by heavy long liquidations, has raised the possibility of a short squeeze.

If short sellers continue to cover positions, prices could extend their recovery.

For bulls, a sustained move above $70,000 and a retest of $73,000 would be key technical milestones.

However, if momentum weakens amid ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical pressures, Bitcoin could slip toward $60,000, undermining the rebound.

In that scenario, some market participants see $50,000 as the next potential downside target.
