AI-focused cryptocurrencies rose sharply on June 4 even as the broader crypto market remained weak. WLD remained the standout mover, and BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes publicly endorsed the token, saying short sellers would "cry" and linking its potential upside to the AI theme. HTX market data reported by BlockBeats later showed WLD at $0.5243, up 33.04% over 24 hours, compared with an earlier reading of $0.5332 and a 39.22% gain. Earlier market data in the same move showed IO up 11.25% to $0.1849, ROBO rising 10.56% to $0.0203, and PHA gaining 10.32% to $0.0385, underscoring continued strength in AI-linked tokens despite broader market pressure.
