AI & AI Agents
AI Agents
Autonomous AI agents that perform tasks with minimal human intervention, helping streamline and optimize complex on-chain processes.
AI-Agents platform
A decentralized platform where autonomous AI agents can be deployed, orchestrated, and governed on-chain. These agents should interact with decentralized services, run complex workflows, and execute user-defined tasks with full auditability, trustlessness, and permissionless innovation.
Examples: MyShell
AI-Powered On-chain Decentralized communication protocol
A decentralized, blockchain-secured communication layer that leverages AI-driven services for content moderation, translation, summarization, and intelligent routing.
Decentralized AI Chatbot (acronym: DAC)
AI chatbot capable of fully autonomous operation in a decentralized environment. The DAC uses a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) to securely manage its cryptographic keys and run its decision-making algorithms, ensuring it is not controlled or attacked by human operators.
DeFi
CLMM
An advanced Automated Market Maker protocol that allows liquidity providers to concentrate their assets in specific price ranges, improving capital efficiency and providing tighter spreads. Like most CLMMs, it should support complex, programmable liquidity deployment, flexible fee structures, and enhanced composability.
Easy Money
A one-click DeFi investment platform that makes it easy for users to invest in multiple DeFi protocols from a single interface.
Examples: exponential.fi
New AMM primitives
Next-Generation AMM protocols that go beyond traditional constant-product or bonding curve models. A few ideas would be integrating dynamic parameters, AI driven liquidity strategies, cross-chain capabilities, more capital-efficient and user friendly liquidity solutions.
Portfolio management tool
An automated cross-chain portfolio management tool that enables users to implement trading strategies without constant monitoring.
Examples: InstaDapp
Synthetic Asset Protocols
A decentralized protocol that enables the creation, trading and management of synthetic assets representing real-world commodities (exposure to stocks, commodities, or other non-crypto markets like equities, indices or currencies)
Examples: synthetix
Yield Tokenization
A protocol that allows on-chain tokenization of yield streams generated by various DeFi activities. A user should be able to also trade his yield.
Examples: pendle.finance, cian.app, swaap.finance
Infrastructure & Tooling
Decentralized Storage Solution
A very fast and decentralized storage solution that securely distributes and encrypts data across multiple nodes to ensure high availability, redundancy, and resistance to censorship.
Fraud Monitoring Tool
An AI-enhanced (or not) fraud monitoring and detection that makes it easy to identify & stop fraud before it happens. Combining on-chain analytics, ML models, privacy-preserving technologies, this tool should empower organizations, DAOs and DeFi protocols to maintain integrity and reduce risks.
Examples: blowfish.xyz
Transaction Simulator (Strategy simulators and fee calculators)
A simulator that allows users to forecast, compare and optimize transaction outcomes and fees before execution, helping mitigate risks and refining strategies.
Universal Sovereign Message Passing Interface
A trustless, censorship-resistant framework that allows seamless and verifiable communication between diverse ecosystem, sovereign chains.
Unreal SDK
A comprehensive SDK that integrates MultiversX blockchain functionalities.
User-owned Sovereign
This should be more like a social experiment, gathering a group of highly motivated people and believers in self-sovereign digital identity and personal server environments.
Examples: Urbit
Education
AI Agents in Blockchain - Courses
Explore how AI-powered agents can revolutionize blockchain ecosystems. These courses can cover practical applications, including automation of smart contracts, data-driven decision-making, and enhanced network efficiency.
Developer Courses
These courses could focus on building decentralized applications, deploying smart contracts, building one-day projects, and optimizing performance on the MultiversX blockchain.
Self Hosted RPCs - how to’s
Clear, step-by-step instructions and documentation on setting up, configuring, maintaining one’s own decentralized RPC Infra. This would help create new opportunities for income generation and provide a much better and robust alternative to the public api.
Validator Courses
Teach the essentials of running and maintaining validator nodes. These courses could cover staking, security best practices, and optimizing rewards while contributing to the stability of the blockchain network.
Other
Dashboard Integrations
Example: Dune Analytics
Decentralized Messaging App
Secure, peer-to-peer communication platform that uses decentralized technologies to ensure user privacy, data ownership and censorship resistance.
On-Chain Creators Platform
A decentralized platform where creators can publish exclusive content, maintain clear ownership rights, and receive transparent, direct compensation from their supporters—all secured by blockchain technology.
Examples: Patreon
On-Chain Identity solutions
A fully decentralized identity framework that allows users to manage, create, manage and prove their identity and attributes without relying on centralized authorities.
Onchain Reputation
A decentralized protocol for establishing, verifying and evolving on-chain reputation scores. This protocol should aggregate various forms of on-chain activity, endorsements, skill proofs and social metrics.
Validator Monitoring
Dashboard that tracks validators' actions, history and tooling contributions.
