As of 12:00 PM UTC today, 26 June 2025, Sahara AI (SAHARA) made its debut and started trading on top tier exchanges, including KuCoin, OKX, Bitget, MEXC, CoinW, Bitrue, XT.COM, and HTX. 

Sahara AI is a decentralized artificial intelligence project whose native token has surged by an astonishing 40,389% against the US Dollar following the announcement of its listing on Binance Alpha on 21 June 2025. SAHARA has a total of $51.5M raised, with significant backing from industry giants YZI Labs (ex-Binance Labs), Polychain Capital, and Pantera Capital.

And now, the crypto world is buzzing with the meteoric rise of the token. The airdrop is now live. After listing, SAHARA will be available in multiple trading pairs, such as USDT, USDC, BNB, FDUSD, and TRY.

The company also took to X to announce that “Upbit is listing $SAHARA Trading opens June 26 at 21:30 KST for KRW, BTC, and USDT pairs.”

“Big thanks to our Korean community for your early support. We’re just getting started,” the company added.

Some Forecast That SAHARA Could Reach $5-$10 In Short Term

Some analysts predict the token could open between $0.80 and $1, with the potential to spike higher if market sentiments remain bullish. Meanwhile, social media sentiment points to possible price targets of $0.15- $0.30 in the coming weeks, with some models forecasting a gradual increase to $0.21613 by next month.

The token also boasts a robust community, complete with 892.4k X followers, 200k AI trainers and 3 million annotations. This support has been fuelling speculation and some forecast that SAHARA could reach $5-$10 in the short term.

Furthermore, as the predictions beyond a few months are highly speculative, some social media forecasts suggest prices could stabilize around $0.17- $0.18 by the end of the year.

Sahara AI is a blockchain-based platform designed to empower developers to build, train and monetize their own AI models using high-quality datasets. “A platform where everyone can create and monetize AI models, datasets, and applications in a collaborative space, built on the Sahara Blockchain,” the company says.
