I have selected 10 early protocols from the AI-driven social analysis platform Moni that are 100% worth your attention:

1.Burve

Category: Berachain-based DeFi yield aggregator

Introduction: Maximize through multi-token swaps, liquidity pool leverage, and depeg insurance mechanisms.

Berachain on-chain yield.

Airdrop potential: Medium-High (the project is in the very early stages, has few followers, has not issued tokens yet, classic airdrop model)

Token: Not Issued

Highlights: Building an ecosystem focused on optimizing liquidity providers + risk management tools (insurance, leverage). The liquidity mining phase is expected to be launched subsequently.

2.Multipli.fi

Category: DeFi Yield Aggregation

Introduction: Achieving the popularization of returns on native assets, stablecoins, and tokenized real-world assets.

Airdrop Potential: High (ORB rewards can be obtained in both testnet and mainnet phases; token issuance has been confirmed)

Token: Not yet issued

Highlights: ORB (On-chain Reward Bond) can be obtained by participating in the testnet and mainnet staking, and will be redeemable at the TGE.

3.ambient.xyz

Category: Web3 + AI Infrastructure

Introduction: A PoW (Proof of Work) blockchain that transforms AI model training into a secure, rewardable on-chain activity.

Airdrop Potential: Official airdrop plan not yet announced

Token: Not yet issued

Highlights: Currently no points mining or airdrop mechanism. Supported by investments from a16z, Delphi Ventures, and Amber Group.

4.Cline

Category: AI Developer Tools, Autonomous Programming Agents

Introduction: An open-source AI programming agent that supports collaborative writing, debugging, and delivery of full-stack code.

Airdrop Potential: Low (no token model, focusing on SaaS and open source direction, reward mechanism not disclosed)

Token: None (No plans or signs of issuing a native token)

Highlights: 1.3 million installations +, community followers over 31,000, active developer ecosystem; high GitHub popularity (over 40,000 stars), positioned more towards open-source infrastructure rather than on-chain protocols.

5.Optimex

Category: BTCFi

Introduction: A non-custodial DeFi protocol layer for native Bitcoin, supporting flash swaps, lending, and margin trading.

Airdrop Potential: Medium (no official plans yet, but early app users +alpha testers may be eligible)

Token: Not yet launched (No public information available regarding TGE or tokenomics)

Highlights: No points system, no tokens. The project team may be building a retroactive reward mechanism (rewards will be issued in the future based on early contributions).

6.Converge

Category: Institutional DeFi Protocols, Asset Tokenization Settlement Layer

Introduction: An EVM-compatible Layer 1 public chain that integrates traditional finance with decentralized finance, achieving compliant asset tokenization and stablecoin settlement.

Airdrop Expectation: Low (No airdrop announced; focus on institutional adoption and compliance)

Token: No native token; settled using USDe and $ENA

Highlights: Supported by Ethena and Securitize. Designed for both institutional and permissionless application scenarios. Early partners include AAVE, Pendle, Morpho, and Maple Finance.

7.Hubble Protocol

Category: DeFi, Yield Strategy Fork

Introduction: The evolved version of Tomb Finance, reimagined on Sonic, aims to optimize DeFi yield strategies.

Airdrop Potential: Medium (The token has not been confirmed in the early stages, but the mention of user guidance mechanisms suggests that there may be incentives in the future)

Token: Not yet launched

Highlights: The project claims to originate from Tomb Finance and may be building a resilient supply or algorithmic yield structure.

8.Monadic DNA

Category: Decentralized Science, Privacy-Preserving Genomics

Introduction: Gain health and lifestyle insights from DNA without giving up data control.

Airdrop Potential: Medium (waiting list will be opened soon, early development momentum is good, token not yet announced but may adopt a typical DeSci incentive model)

Token: Not yet launched (token or governance mechanism not yet confirmed)

Highlights: Positioned as an alternative to user ownership of 23andMe, 23andMe is the winning project of ETHGlobal 2024.

9.Splenium

Category: Decentralized Artificial Intelligence (DeAI)

Introduction: An AI co-pilot tool based on a chat interface, supporting users to conduct NFT transactions, asset management, and market tracking in real-time across EVM chains.

Airdrop Potential: Medium (13,000 user scale, early growth stage, high interaction frequency indicates a possible future reward mechanism)

Token: Not yet issued (token plan not yet confirmed)

Highlights: Expected to develop into a personal DeFi application layer or integrate into the existing wallet ecosystem, requiring the construction of a long-term growth flywheel through token economics or protocol layers.

10.Metadrip

• Category: AI Agents, DeFi User Experience Layer

• Introduction: A one-stop platform for cryptocurrency trading, staking, tracking, and token issuance through a conversational AI assistant.

• Airdrop Potential: High (staking mechanism, DAO governance, and DRIP token design hint at future rewards or early user incentives)

• Token: Planned (DRIP token will be used for voting governance)

• Highlights: Centered around retail investors, creating an "All-in-One" DeFi assistant experience, with an interface that integrates multiple Web3 functionalities.

Time always rewards those who rise early.

This list is not a prophecy, but a snapshot. Please use it wisely and make the most of it.

Not every early project can become a breakout, but every breakout has the same growth trajectory.
