What is
$ACE and why I think it is undervalued.
ACE Data Cloud is building the API and infrastructure layer for the AI economy, this is the backend that powers how AI systems, apps, and agents access data, communicate, and transact.
They’re already live with over 700M processed API calls, 80K users, and around 1.4M daily calls, all before x402 integration even goes live.
The developer, @cuiqingcai, is ranked top 400 globally on GitHub (out of 150M+ users), author of a 170K-copy Python bestseller, and has been recognised by the founder of Python — arguably the strongest builder credentials in the entire AI-crypto sector.
Their product line covers everything from AI Q&A (OpenAI, DeepSeek) to AI images (Flux, Midjourney), music (Suno), and video (Luma, Pika).
Using Nexior, ACE’s open-source toolkit, anyone can deploy their own AI platform and sell APIs within minutes. Once integrated with x402, every API call becomes a trustless, onchain payment, instantly placing ACE among the most active projects on x402scan.
That means 100M+ potential x402 transactions per month from non-native crypto businesses alone.
API servicing is a high-margin business (60–90%), and ACE is already matching usage numbers of projects valued far higher. PayAI is at ~$70M, while ACE sits near ~$6M FDV.
As AI agents and robotics adoption rise, ACE’s infrastructure becomes essential — the rails for machine-to-machine payments and autonomous AI systems.
Feels extremely undervalued at current levels. Wouldn’t be surprised to see 5–10x once x402 integration hits and the market catches up to what ACE is building.
