The post Faraday Future Launches Dual AI-Crypto Plan, Eyes Millions in Crypto Treasury appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Faraday Future, the California EV maker, has revealed a new strategy with plans to link its AI-powered mobility platform with Web3 and cryptocurrency.

The company is betting that this mix could reshape both the auto industry and digital finance.

Faraday Bridges AI and Crypto 

At an event in Pebble Beach on August 16, Faraday unveiled its new “EAI + Crypto” Dual-Flywheel and Dual-Bridge strategy. The plan merges its Embodied AI (EAI) technology with blockchain and crypto, aiming to bridge Web2 and Web3 while opening new business opportunities in mobility.

This makes Faraday one of the first U.S.-listed companies to connect real-world business operations with blockchain technology.

EAI Vehicle Chain to Tokenize Sales

A central part of the plan is the EAI Vehicle Chain, which will enable:

Tokenized vehicle sales

Crypto-based deposits

Web3-powered user engagement

The ultimate goal is to create a more open and decentralized mobility economy.

Today, Faraday Future launched the first-ever US-listed company #C10 Treasury plan and introduced the #C10 Index.

C10 Index and Treasury Program Target Billions

Faraday also launched the C10 Index, which tracks the world’s top 10 cryptocurrencies (excluding stablecoins) in real time on its website and app.

The company is also starting a C10 Treasury, aiming to invest $500million–$1 billion in crypto, with an initial $30 million purchase. Using an 80/20 passive-active strategy, the treasury targets 3–5% returns to fund innovation, stock buybacks, and growth. 

Over time, they hope that “it could reach tens of billions in size.” Moreover, it is also considering an ETF based on the index.

“The next decade could be a super long bull cycle for the crypto market,” said Ian Calderon, FF Co-Creation Officer and Founding Board Member of the California Blockchain Working Group.

Faraday Faces Setbacks 

Despite its ambitious roadmap, Faraday Future has been facing issues with delayed production and regulatory challenges. In July, it received a Wells notice from the SEC after a three-year probe into its 2021 SPAC merger.

It also posted a $48.1M net loss in Q2, slightly better than last year. Its shares are currently trading at $2.58, down 7% over the past day.

Faraday’s move is part of a bigger trend where companies are jumping into Web3 and crypto as a way to diversify or grab attention.
