1X announced the preorder of their humanoid home robots yesterday, starting at just $20K or $499/month.
The announcement generated major hype across the robotics space, and the crypto x robotics sector reacted instantly.
$PEAQ for example as the top robotics coin currently outperforming everything else while the broader market is tanking.
People need to start realizing that even if this future feels dystopian, it’s much closer than most imagine or would even like it to be.
It’s now a full-on race between leading robotics manufacturers like Figure, Apptronik, 1X, Unitree, and others, all pushing to deliver affordable humanoids for everyday life and become the first movers in this new era.
In my opinion, this announcement was just a small teaser of what’s coming from the robotics scene in the next months and years.
And honestly, announcements like this create a flywheel effect, competitors feel the pressure to accelerate their roadmaps and drop their own big reveals even faster.
For most people, the crypto x robotics market is the best way to actually bet on this transformation even if, for now, it’s largely a narrative play.
A 10-20x market cap expansion in crypto × robotics within the next 6–12 months wouldn’t surprise me at all.
