OpenSocial is a Multi-chain SocialFi infrastructure that offer truly scalable and composable protocol for web3 users, creators and developers, powering the future multi-chain SocialFi ecosystem.

Founded in April 2024, Lombard is dedicated to unlocking Bitcoin's potential as a dynamic financial tool by connecting it to DeFi. Lombard enables the yield-bearing BTC to move cross-chain without fragmenting liquidity, paving the way to become the single largest catalyst for onboarding net new capital into DeFi. Its flagship product, LBTC—a yield-bearing, cross-chain, liquid Bitcoin backed 1:1 by BTC.

MilkyWay is a liquid staking solution for the Celestia ecosystem, it will initially be deployed and operated on Osmosis. The long term plan is to migrate to Celestia's rollkit for native milkTIA issuance. When users liquid stake their TIA coins with MilkyWay, they receive an on-chain representation of their TIA staking position, known as milkTIA. This empowers Celestia token holders to access liquidity for their staked assets, enabling trading or their use as collateral in various DeFi products.

Movement is a modular framework to build and deploy Move-based infrastructure, applications, and blockchains in any distributed environment. The team is building a suite of products and services that empower non-Move protocols to leverage the power of the Move Programming Language without writing a single line of Move code. The team’s first release, M1, redefines the L1 as a Vertically Composable and Horizontally Scalable Layer 1 Framework that is Solidity-compatible, connects EVM and Move liquidity, and lets builders customize modular and interoperable app-chains with a diverse base of users and liquidity accessible out of the box.

NEBRA is building the first proof aggregation service on Ethereum, which uses Universal ZK-ZK Proof Aggregation construction to aggregate ZKPs for all kinds of applications, including but not limited to privacy preserving identities, storage proofs, ZKML, zkEVM proofs.

Puffer is a decentralized native Liquid Restaking Protocol (nLRP) built on EigenLayer. It introduces native Liquid Restaking Tokens (nLRTs) that accrue PoS and restaking rewards. Nodes within the protocol leverage Puffer’s anti-slashing technology to enjoy reduced risk and increased capital efficiency, while supercharging their rewards through native restaking. Puffer's core mission is to maintain the "trusted neutrality" of Ethereum and enhance and maintain the decentralization of Ethereum.

MyShell is a decentralized AI consumer layer allows creators to build AI agents or bots that consumers or users can use. Its ecosystem includes bots like OpenVoice, an instant voice cloning program; MeloTTS, a multilingual text-to-speech (TTS) library; and Alice, an AI agent that performs various tasks, including thematic research, coding and literature review.

Clique is building identity oracles that connect web2 user behavior data with web3 applications. It leverages advanced cryptographic tech like ZKP, TEE, and MPC to develop modular solutions with customizable privacy assumptions. Its main products are designed to help protocols, creators, and brands identify high-value users/fans, perform Sybil-resistant checks and distribute incentives accordingly.

Firewall is developing a firewall solution for blockchain networks to prevent smart contract exploits. Unlike traditional network firewalls, which monitor incoming and outgoing transactions to identify threats using predefined security criteria, Firewall employs rollups — aggregating multiple transactions into a single batch — and "programmable transaction finalization rules" to intercept exploits before they are recorded on the blockchain. The "proof-of-exploit" consensus mechanism it is creating classifies smart contract exploits as “invalid state transitions” to be reversed.

Babylon is a layer 1 blockchain founded by Professor David Tse from Stanford University. The project's mission is to bring Bitcoin's unparalleled security to all PoS blockchains without any extra energy cost. The team consists of Stanford researchers and experienced developers, as well as seasoned business advisors.
