Infrastructure
5. Neo Smart Economy (NEO-PERP): A blockchain platform that aims to create a scalable network of decentralized applications (dApps) with a focus on interoperability, digital identity, and integrating real-world assets through digitalization. It supports multiple programming languages for smart contract development and features a unique dual-token model, with NEO for network governance and GAS for transaction fees.
6. SUI.io (SUI-PERP): SUI is a layer 1 chain optimized for low-latency transfers on the blockchain. Unlike traditional blockchains, Sui is an object-centric model for its consensus and transaction mechanism, which results in processing speeds of >100,000 transactions per second.
7. The Ton Network (TON-PERP): The TON token is used on The Open Network (TON), a decentralized platform for hosting a range of services, from messaging and file storage to payments and decentralized apps. Its perks include high speed and scalability, designed to handle millions of transactions per second, making it one of the fastest blockchain networks in the world.
8. Wormhole (W-PERP): Wormhole is an interoperability protocol that provides a means of communication between blockchains or rollups. It utilizes a proof-of-transfer mechanism ensuring reliability and security of transfers for data, tokens, and more across multiple chains.
9. ZKSync (ZK-PERP): A Layer-2 protocol based on a “Zero-Knowledge” methodology. With a less congested network, users’ benefits include lower costs, faster transaction times, and greater scalability, while maintaining the security and fundamentals of the Ethereum chain.
DeFi
10. Ethena.fi (ENA-PERP): Ethena’s answer to the “stablecoin trilemma”, ENA is a decentralized stablecoin protocol on Ethereum. Their primary offering, USDe, is pegged 1:1 to the USD dollar for stability and scalability. Its price peg is based on a risk management strategy called delta hedging, which helps reduce volatility and aims to become a reliable exchange medium.

12. Pendle.fi (PENDLE-PERP): Pendle is a yield-trading protocol that operates permissionlessly and allows users to execute a range of yield-management strategies. Its main aim is to give users complete control over their yields, revolutionizing how we interact with yield-bearing assets.
DePIN
13. Render Network (RNDR-PERP): Render is a decentralized GPU rendering network developed on the Ethereum blockchain, designed to bridge the gap between artists and studios requiring GPU processing power and miners willing to lease their GPU resources.
AI
14. Fetch.ai (FET-PERP): A blockchain platform that utilizes AI to create a decentralized, open, and permission-free machine learning platform powered by a cryptocurrency economy. Anyone can connect to it without needing permission, access secure data sets, and use autonomous AI to carry out tasks across its extensive data network.
