Original Article Translation: Ashley, BlockBeats
Editor's Note: DeFAI (DeFi + AI) is rapidly emerging as a hot trend in the recent past. This article focuses on 6 upcoming DeFAI tokens, ranging from intelligent trading assistants to personalized agent platforms. These projects not only innovatively address the complexity of DeFi but also demonstrate huge growth potential. If you want to seize the early opportunity of DeFAI, this article will be your ideal guide.
Below is the original content (slightly reorganized for better readability):
DeFAI Valuation Soars to $2.7 Billion
If you have been following cryptocurrency and DeFi, you have almost certainly not missed the recent buzz surrounding DeFAI. DeFAI is currently the hottest topic in the crypto space, with its total market valuation growing at an astonishing pace.
CoinGecko officially launched the DeFAI category on January 7th. Since I first noticed its $660 million market valuation, the market cap of this sector has quadrupled to reach the current $2.7 billion.
The mission of DeFAI is to simplify traditional DeFi through AI technology (DeFAI = DeFi + AI), transforming it into a smarter, more user-friendly, and more efficient financial ecosystem.
While some tokens (such as $AIXBT) have already been released and have a market cap exceeding $600 million, many new tokens and projects in this sector remain out of the public eye. This article will delve into all the upcoming high-potential DeFAI tokens.
High-Potential DeFAI Projects
Wayfinder | @AIWayfinder
Wayfinder is an AI-based DeFi assistant chat tool designed to help users explore and navigate blockchain paths for the best experience, currently in a closed testing phase.
Developed by the @ParallelTCG team, Wayfinder not only supports simple transactions like cross-chain exchanges or lending but also includes a professional agent for deploying, editing, and auditing smart contracts.
Its ecosystem will be supported by two tokens, to be released soon:
· $PROMT: The native gas and utility token.
· $PRIME: The governance and staking token.
Through interacting with Wayfinder, users can get the opportunity for a $PROMT airdrop. The team plans to airdrop 1% of the total supply to early registrants in the first stage, while allocating 40% to users staking $PRIME.
Axal | @getaxal
Supported by @CMT_Digital, Axal is a DeFAI platform focused on building a verifiable agent network for a wide range of tasks.
The platform allows users to easily create smart Web3 systems by stating their intent, driving agent-based market solutions, all with zero counterparty risk.
Axal's flagship product, Autopilot, is an agent-driven trading platform designed to automate complex trading strategies. Recently, they also launched @Gekko_Agent, a DeFAI agent with a 1980s Wall Street style (a competitor to @aixbt_agent).
There is currently no token disclosure available.
Cod3x | @Cod3xOrg
Frankly, this is one of my most anticipated projects!
@Cod3xOrg is both a DeFi assistant—helping users manage on-chain funds through written prompts—and a platform to create a personalized AI agent without coding skills.
With its outstanding user experience, Cod3x not only makes DeFi more accessible but also popularizes personalized agents. These agents can be used for various purposes such as high-risk trading, tax management, dollar-cost averaging strategies, and more.
Their flagship product @BigTonyXBT is a DeFAI agent inspired by an Italian mafia style and is currently one of the most profitable agents on the market.
Pro Tip: Claim this NFT now to ensure early access to the platform!
Slate | @slate_ceo
As the first and currently the only AI agent able to trade on @HyperliquidX, Slate provides AI-driven comprehensive alerts generated instantly from all information channels and can autonomously execute trades on Hyperliquid, Solana, and Base — all integrated within one platform.
Slate allows users to specify content to monitor (Telegram, Discord, etc.) and receive real-time notifications when specified conditions are met.
@slate_ceo supports 51+ protocols and 11 chains, enabling seamless DeFi transactions through natural language.
The product is live, but no information is currently available about the token.
Almanak | @Almanak__
Almanak is a permissionless end-to-end platform for building, testing, training, optimizing, and deploying autonomous financial agents.
Almanak consists of two main modules:
· Strategy Infrastructure: For conceptualizing, evaluating, and optimizing financial strategies.
· Agent Infrastructure: Supporting agent takeover and assisting in executing financial strategies.
Almanak aims to democratize the field and address inequality through "institutional-grade" agents, allowing anyone to build and train strategies.
The application is now live and in the testing phase, and the token has completed presale on @legiondotcc and will be officially launched soon.
HeyElsa | @HeyElsaAI
Yes, the last one is another DeFAI chatbot, but it offers some key differentiating features.
HeyElsa has provided a proprietary Large Language Model (LLM) that offers real-time market and sentiment insights across mainstream blockchains. Its key features include:
· Composable AI agent: Providing personalized insights, decision-making, and execution capabilities at minimal cost.
· Superior user experience: Managing assets, executing cross-chain exchanges across 7 chains, staking, lending, and more through an interface similar to ChatGPT.
The product is already live and is currently running a rewards points campaign for users. Simply complete one interaction to receive 500 points!
DeFAI: The Future and a $100 Billion Prediction
I am very bullish on DeFAI, and my confidence in it stems from the fact that DeFAI is the only way to truly bring DeFi to the masses.
Since the inception of DeFi, it has indeed opened up the financial sector to everyone, but using all the dApps, external wallets, and various chains is still quite complex. Thanks to DeFAI, I have introduced more friends to DeFi in the past year than I have in the last 3–4 years.
If you ask me to predict, I believe that by the end of 2025, DeFAI's market capitalization will reach $100 billion.

PUMP: Today's discussions about PUMP focus on its new creator revenue-sharing model: the platform will allocate 50% of PumpSwap revenue to token creators, sparking varied reactions from users. Some criticize the move as insufficient or even misleading, while others view it as a positive step the platform is taking to reward creators. Meanwhile, PUMP faces market pressure from emerging competitors like LetsBONKfun and Raydium, which are rapidly gaining market share. Users also express concerns about PUMP's sustainability and potential regulatory risks in the U.S., with discussions extending to the platform's impact on the entire memecoin ecosystem.
COINBASE: Today, Coinbase became the first crypto company to join the S&P 500 Index, replacing Discover Financial Services, sparking widespread industry attention.

XRP: XRP became the focal point of today's crypto discussion, with its significant market movements and strategic advances drawing attention. XRP has surpassed USDT to become the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, sparking market excitement and discussions about its future potential. The surge in market capitalization and price is believed to be related to increasing institutional interest, deepening strategic partnerships, and its role in the crypto ecosystem. Additionally, XRP's integration into multiple financial systems and its potential as a macro asset class are also seen as key factors driving the current market sentiment.
DYDX: Today's discussions about DYDX mainly focused on the dYdX Yapper Leaderboard launched by KaitoAI. The leaderboard aims to identify the most active community participants, with a total of $150,000 in rewards to be distributed over the first three seasons. This initiative has sparked broad community participation, with many users discussing the potential rewards and the incentive effect on the DYDX ecosystem. Meanwhile, progress on the ethDYDX to dYdX native chain migration and historical airdrop events have also been topics of discussion.
1. "What Is 'ICM'? Holding Up the $4 Billion Market Cap Solana's New Narrative"
Overnight, the hottest narrative in the crypto space has become "Internet Capital Markets," with a host of crypto projects and founders, led by the Solana ecosystem's new Launchpad platform Believe, releasing this phrase. Together with "Believe in something," it has become the new slogan heralding the onset of a bull market. What exactly is the so-called "Internet Capital Market," will it become a short-lived hype phrase like the Base ecosystem's previous Content Coin, and what related targets are available for selection?2.《LaunchCoin Surges 20x in One Day, How Did Believe Create a $200M Market Cap Shiba Inu After Going to Zero?｜100x Retrospective》
LAUNCHCOIN broke through a $200 million market cap today, with the long-lost liquidity and such a high market cap "Memecoin" almost bringing half of the on-chain crypto community CT into the fray. The community is crazily discussing this token, with half of it being FOMO and the other half being FUD. This token, originally issued by Believe founder Ben Pasternak under his personal identity, transformed into a new platform token after a renaming. From once going to zero to a $200 million market cap, what happened in between?May 14 On-chain Fund Flow
Within 24 hours, GOONC's market cap soared to 70 million, could GOONC be the next billion-dollar dog on the Believe platform?
Bitcoin has broken $100,000, Ethereum has surpassed 2500, and is Solana's hot streak about to make a comeback?
The current market is in a state of macro euphoria, with GOONC riding the wave today, skyrocketing 10x in just a few hours, reaching a market cap of tens of millions of dollars, trading volume soaring past 50 million, and rumors swirling that the developer may be from OpenAI (unconfirmed but intriguing enough).
A ludicrous and absurd Solana meme that some actually buy into.
GOONC is a meme coin that has sprouted from the "gooning" subculture, offering no technological innovation or practical use, its sole function being speculation.
It takes inspiration from an NSFW term "gooning," which refers to a person being deeply immersed in certain content (you know what), eventually entering a nearly religious-like trance.
In Reddit (such as r/GOONED, r/GoonCaves) and some counterculture media outlets (such as MEL Magazine in 2020), "gooning" has gradually transitioned from an adult label to a meme-addicted, digital content and virtual self-indulgence synonym, arguably the epitome of Degen spirit.
GOONC is playing around with this concept, packaging the addictive nature, uselessness, and irony of gooning into a tradable financial product. The project team has made it clear: "We do not solve blockchain problems, we only trade absurdity." Blunt but oddly genuine.
GOONC launched on May 13, 2025, using the meme coin launch platform Believe App's LaunchCoin module on Solana. This tool is highly Degen: zero technical barriers, a few clicks to create a coin, perfect for projects like GOONC that can come up with ideas out of the blue.
The mastermind behind GOONC is also quite something and is the most talked-about, with KOL @basedalexandoor on X platform (alias "Pata van Goon") personally involved. His profile even caught the attention of Marc Andreessen, co-founder of a16z, making onlookers unable to resist speculating if GOONC has a hint of OpenAI lineage.
While this 'OpenAI Endorsement' is currently just community speculation, it is definitely a good card to play to fuel hype. Saying "we are pure speculation" on one hand, while tagging a few "AI + a16z" on the other.
GOONC took off as soon as it launched. After its launch on May 13, 2025, its market capitalization skyrocketed to $22 million within 4 hours, with a trading volume exceeding $25.6 million in 24 hours. According to platform data, the first day of trading saw an astonishing +41,100% surge, soaring from $0.0000001 to $0.02, becoming a "missed-the-boat" situation.
GOONC quickly formed an active trading community post-launch, with a lot of discussion and trading signals appearing on X platform (such as the 292x return signal provided by DeBot). Liquidity pools on exchanges like Raydium and Meteora grew rapidly, supporting high trading volumes and price increases.
The real climax occurred between May 13 and May 14, with the market cap rising to $5.5 million in the morning and directly surpassing $55 million in the afternoon. By the 14th, it briefly approached a $70 million market cap, with the trading volume soaring to $59 million. Some community members even posted screenshots claiming an increase of +85,000%, creating a new myth out of the ruins.
As of 1:30 pm on May 14, the price stabilized around $0.039, with a total market cap and FDV both around $39.6 million, and a 24-hour trading volume of $5.43 million. Active platforms include XT.COM, LBank, Meteora, and others.
Although there was a slight pullback from the peak ($0.07), the coin's popularity remains strong. For a coin that relies purely on "irony + community + X post" to thrive, this performance is already at a stellar level.
Currently, the background of the token's development team is not transparent, increasing the potential risk of a rug pull. Rugcheck.xyz warns that the creator of the GOONC contract may have permission to modify the contract (e.g., change fees or mint additional tokens), posing certain security risks.
Community members speculate that the meteoric rise of GOONC may be the "last hurrah".
