Ethereum (ETH) recovered from a low of 2,115 to a current price of around 2,454 on Tuesday. This recovery is marked with a 17% gain with the markets stabilizing as the geopolitical tension between Iran and Israel eased. Despite this recovery, futures and options data indicate that professional traders are still cautious. According to data provided by Laevitas, the two-month futures premium on ETH has decreased to 3% (compared to a neutral 5–10% range), reflecting a lack of interest in bullish leverage.
This cautious sentiment persists despite US-listed Ethereum ETFs recording $101 million in net inflows on Monday. Low network fees continue to be a concern on Ethereum, with only $41 million generated in the last 30 days. Conversely, Tron gained $56 million with a significantly lower total value locked (TVL). Ethereum now has a market cap of $293 billion, although this number has started to attract criticism as the utility has failed to keep up with its valuation.
The options market data also reflects neutrality, demonstrating limited downside hedging demand. Analysts believe that Ethereum will continue to trade below $3,000 in the short run unless it reclaims the dominance of decentralized applications or achieves significant institutional growth.
Investor interest continues to rise in the AI crypto sector. The total market capitalization of top AI tokens increased by 0.66% in the last 24 hours to $28.08 billion. Additionally, the trading volume increased by 3.30% to $4.07 billion, which is an indicator of new interest by traders across global markets.
As of 25 June, the trend remains upward, driven by consistent accumulation and favorable sentiment surrounding AI-driven utility tokens. The resilience contrasts with Ethereum's consolidation, which shows that investors are experimenting with tokens that offer differentiated narratives. As newer decentralized AI models begin to take hold, this sector still receives many interesting projects, especially from traders interested in gaining presence beyond traditional Layer-1 networks.
One of the top AI tokens, Ozak AI, is also picking up pace in the presale of its tokens. The project has already sold 18.90 million $OZ tokens in its fourth phase out of the scheduled 200 million, as of the current stage. The token is currently priced at $0.005, following earlier phases priced at $0.001, $0.002, and $0.003—reflecting cumulative increases of 400% across all stages. The next phase will raise the price to $0.01, marking a 100% jump from the current rate. So far, the team has raised $1.29 million in funding, signaling growing early-stage participation.
Ozak AI marked itself as a predictive AI platform that integrates decentralized infrastructure for real-time analytics. It also includes core functionalities, including the Ozak Stream Network, DePIN systems and customizable agent-based prediction. With the $OZ token, transactions, access to exclusive features, and governance in the ecosystem have become possible.
The tokenomics reveal that the presale and community incentives will receive 70% of the total 10 billion token supply. The remaining allocation contributes to the team, liquidity, and future reserves.
The project completed a security audit by CertiK, and it is now listed at CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap, which improves visibility and credibility. Participants in the presale are also eligible for a $1 million giveaway. To qualify, users must hold at least $100 worth of OZ tokens. The $OZ token presale structure encourages early entry by offering referral bonuses and increasing prices across stages.
Although Ozak AI's long-term goal of reaching $1 per token signals a large potential, the project will have to rely on continued ecosystem building, exchange listings and user adoption. With Ethereum facing decelerating momentum and investor burnout, AI-inspired tokens such as OZ could gain increased market share.
