Compiled by: Asher (@Asher_0210)
Over the past week, the heated discussion around DeFi has almost swept across the entire cryptocurrency and DeFi field, becoming the focus of attention. DeFi has quickly risen to become the current hot trend in the crypto field, with its total market capitalization continuing to grow at an amazing pace.
In addition, CoinGecko officially launched the DeFi category on January 7, which has grown 4-fold from an initial market capitalization of $660 million and now has a total market value of $2.7 billion.
The mission of DeFi is to simplify traditional DeFi by integrating artificial intelligence capabilities (DeFi = DeFi + AI) to create a smarter, more user-friendly, and more efficient financial ecosystem. Although some tokens (such as AIXBT) have already been launched and achieved a market capitalization of over $600 million, new tokens and projects in this field have not yet received enough attention.
Next, this article will analyze in detail the potential upcoming DeFi tokens.
Wayfinder (@AIWayfinder)
Wayfinder is an AI-driven DeFi chatbot assistant that aims to help users explore and navigate the blockchain ecosystem to get the best experience. Wayfinder is developed by the Parallel team, and the project not only supports basic transactions such as cross-chain swaps and lending, but also comes equipped with dedicated agent tools for deploying, editing, and auditing smart contracts. The project is currently in a closed testing phase.
In addition, two tokens will provide utility for the ecosystem and will be released soon:
PROMT: Native gas fee and utility token;
PRIME: Governance and staking token.
Users can earn PROMT airdrops by interacting with Wayfinder. The team plans to airdrop 1% of the total supply to early registered users, and 40% to users holding PRIME.
Axal (@getaxal)
Axal is a DeFi platform supported by CMT Digital, dedicated to establishing a verifiable agent network for various tasks. Through this platform, users only need to specify their needs, and the platform will generate intelligent Web3 systems that allow agent-based markets to efficiently find the best solutions with zero counterparty risk.
The flagship product of the Axal platform, Autopilot, is an agent-driven trading platform aimed at automatically executing complex trading strategies. Recently, the team also launched Gekko AI, a DeFi agent with a 1980s Wall Street tycoon style (it is a potential competitor to aixbt).
Although Axal's product matrix has shown great innovative potential, specific information about the platform's native token has not yet been released, and the future release plans and token economic model are still to be revealed.
Cod3x (@Cod3xOrg)
Cod3x is a multi-functional platform that can serve as a DeFi assistant to help users easily manage on-chain funds by writing prompts, as well as create customized artificial intelligence agents without any programming skills. With its excellent user experience, the Cod3x platform makes DeFi easy to use and democratizes the creation of personalized agents. These agents can be used for various purposes, such as Degen trading, tax management, DCA investment strategies, etc.
The flagship product of the Cod3x platform, Big Tony, is a DeFi agent with an Italian mafia style, which is currently one of the most profitable agents in the market.
Currently, users can access the platform by applying for an NFT (application link: https://app.manifold.xyz/c/d3x) (perhaps related to future token airdrops).
Slate (@slate_ceo)
Slate is the first artificial intelligence agent capable of trading on Hyperliquid. This tool can provide real-time AI-driven aggregated alerts from various user information channels. In addition, Slate also has powerful autonomous trading capabilities, allowing it to execute transactions on Hyperliquid, Solana, and Base on a single platform.

Although the product has been officially launched, no information about token issuance has been announced yet.
Almanak (@Almanak__)
Almanak is a permissionless end-to-end platform designed for building, testing, training, optimizing, and deploying autonomous financial agents. The platform consists of two core modules: a strategic infrastructure for designing, evaluating, and optimizing financial strategies; and an agent infrastructure responsible for taking over and assisting in the execution of these strategies.
Almanak aims to democratize this field, removing barriers and allowing anyone to leverage "institutional-grade" agents to build and train financial strategies. The application is currently live and in the testing phase, and its token has been pre-sold on LEGION, with plans for secondary trading to open soon.
HeyElsa (@HeyElsaAI)
HeyElsa is a DeFi chatbot assistant that differs from the previously mentioned Wayfinder in its main functionality. HeyElsa provides a proprietary large language model (LLM) that can deliver real-time market data and sentiment analysis across mainstream blockchains. Its core features also include:
Composable AI agents: Providing personalized insights, decision-making, and execution at the lowest cost;
Excellent user experience: Managing assets, executing swaps, staking, lending/borrowing, and bridging across 7+ chains through a ChatGPT-like interface.
The product has been officially launched and rewards users through a points program. Users can earn 500 points by completing a single transaction, further enhancing the interactive experience.
The Future Development of DeFi and the Expectation of a Trillion-Dollar Market Cap
DeFi is an important path to promote the popularization of DeFi, providing unprecedented possibilities for the full opening of the financial field. It not only simplifies the complex operations of traditional DeFi, but also makes decentralized finance more intelligent, efficient, and user-friendly by integrating artificial intelligence technology. This innovation provides a more friendly and barrier-free experience for individual users and institutional investors, significantly lowering the entry threshold and truly democratizing financial tools.
Although since its inception, DeFi has made financial tools accessible to everyone, the complexity of using various dApps, external wallets, and blockchains remains a significant barrier. With the introduction of DeFAI, this process has become simpler and more intuitive, allowing more people to engage with and understand DeFi, and it is believed that DeFAI will reach a market capitalization of $100 billion by the end of 2025.
