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.
