AI and Decentralization Science: The Rise of Emerging Trends

In the past six months, AI Agent and Decentralization ( DeSci ) have become hot topics in the market. From a narrative perspective, AI Agent focuses on the potential for autonomous decision-making and data analysis, while DeSci is committed to revolutionizing the research system using blockchain technology. This article will summarize the currently prominent tokens related to AI Agent and DeSci.

AI Agent: A New Era of Intelligent Systems

AI Agent is an intelligent system with autonomy and goal orientation, capable of perceiving the environment, planning actions, and executing tasks to achieve specific goals without human intervention. According to a certain data platform, the current AI trend is similar to the early phase of the DeFi boom in 2020-2021.

AI Agent Outlook

Currently, the blockchain + AI field is showing a similar trend to the pre-launch phase of DeFi in 2020-2021. Base and Solana have become the main battlegrounds, with high performance and high speculation being key. Notable directions to pay attention to include computing power, infrastructure, Memes, launch platforms, and applications.

The opportunities for AI Agents on the chain include both short-term speculation and long-term value investment prospects. Market speculation expectations are mainly concentrated on:

1. The continuous rise of AI16Z drives the overall market sentiment.

2. Automation of AI Agent Project Evolution

3. Market trend analysis tools similar to AIXBT

4. The successful path of projects like Virtuals

5. The application prospects of AI virtual humans and AI creations in non-cryptocurrency fields.

DeSci: The Decentralization Revolution in Research

Decentralization science ( DeSci ) is built through Web3 technology to create a fair and transparent research infrastructure, aiming to address issues such as peer review and funding in research. Recently, Binance Labs invested in and launched BIO Protocol, bringing renewed attention to DeSci.

BIO Protocol

BIO Protocol is a curation and liquidity protocol in the DeSci field, providing resource support for research projects. Its core components include BioDAO, curation systems, and intellectual property tokenization. Currently, 7 sub-DAOs have been successfully launched, with another 3 in development.

The launched sub-DAOs include:

• VITA: Focus on early longevity science research
• ATH: Focus on women's reproductive health
• GROW: Anti-Aging Drug Research Platform
• PSY: Psychedelic Science Research
• HAIR: Solve hair loss problem
• CRYO: Cryopreservation Research
• NEURON: Brain Health Research

Other DeSci related projects

• PumpScience: Solana ecosystem DeSci platform, issuing Meme tokens representing pharmaceuticals.

• Scihub: An unofficial token supporting the open-source research paper website

• ANTI and PRO: a quantum entanglement combination token expressing support and opposition to Meme Tokens

• WORM: The first on-chain digital brain, simulating the neural network of Caenorhabditis elegans.

• GENOME: A genomic data project focused on the monetization of genomic data.

• GALEON: Innovating Electronic Health Record Management with Blockchain Technology

• DRUGS: Medical and Pharmaceutical Meme Coin, aimed at disrupting large pharmaceutical companies.

• RSC: A tokenized social network for rewarding the public sharing of academic content.

Conclusion

Although AI Agent and DeSci are both primarily driven by Memes, their fundamental attributes differ from other Meme logics. AI Agent requires internal breaking of circles, gaining recognition through practicality and fun. DeSci, on the other hand, needs external breaking of circles, relying on influential real-world figures to promote it.

In the current market environment where innovation is lacking, AI Agents and DeSci are expected to become the main speculative directions in the next bull market. AI Agents align with the market's expectations for technological development, while DeSci benefits from the attention and investment of industry leaders. Both have the potential for sustainable development and are worth close attention.
