AI Agents and DeSci: The Rise of New Forces

In the past six months, AI Agents and DeSci have become market hotspots. AI Agents demonstrate tremendous potential for autonomous decision-making and data analysis, while DeSci aims to leverage blockchain technology to break down barriers in scientific research, achieving data sharing and transparency. This article will summarize the currently prominent tokens related to AI Agents and DeSci.

1. The Intelligent Frontier of AI Agents

1.1 Overview of AI Agent

AI Agent is an intelligent system that has autonomy and goal orientation, capable of perceiving the environment, planning actions, executing tasks, and learning from experience to improve, achieving specific goals without human intervention. Its key characteristics are autonomy and goal orientation.

According to a certain data platform, the current trend of AI is similar to the early form of the DeFi boom in 2020-2021. A well-known investment institution has also put forward some outlooks on AI Agents for 2025, including that AI agents need independent wallets, decentralized autonomous chatbots, and so on.

1.3 AI Agent Outlook

The current AI Agent craze reflects a situation similar to the pre-2020-2021 DeFi boom. From an on-chain perspective, certain high-performance public chains have become the main battleground. Notable areas of interest include computing power, infrastructure, memes, launch platforms, and applications.

The application of AI agents in data analysis has more practical value. For example, by analyzing on-chain and market data, it is possible to predict the attitudes and enforcement strength of certain political figures regarding cryptocurrency policies.

Blockchain has an inherent advantage of data transparency, making it an ideal breeding ground for the development of AI. AI Agents represent the value investment trend of blockchain + AI. Although there is currently speculation, it also shows hope for real application landing. The market's expectations for AI Agents are mainly reflected in the following points:

1. The continuous rise of certain projects has driven the overall market sentiment for AI Agents.

2. The spontaneous iterative evolution of the AI Agent shifts the project's progression from manual to automated.

3. Social media analysis tools provide alternative investment insights that are on par with those of opinion leaders;

4. Emerging platforms achieve great success through innovative models.

5. AI virtual humans and AI creations open up new markets in non-cryptocurrency fields, enhancing the breakout effect of blockchain + AI narratives.

2. The Life Science Innovation of DeSci

2.1 Introduction to DeSci

DeSci( decentralized science) is a model for building fair and equal research infrastructure through Web3 technology, aimed at addressing issues in research such as peer review, funding, and intellectual property management. It attempts to bring the innovations of the crypto world into the traditional research field.

Although the concept of DeSci emerged as early as 2021, it wasn't until recently that a trading platform invested in and launched related projects, and industry figures participated in DeSci-themed conferences, that this sector regained market attention.

2.2 A Brief Analysis of a DeSci Protocol

The protocol is a curation and liquidity protocol in the DeSci field, aimed at providing resource support for scientific research projects. Its core components include DAO, curation system, intellectual property tokenization and liquidity mechanisms, as well as incentive systems. Through multiple rounds of auctions and airdrops, the protocol has built a diverse community, laying the foundation for a decentralized biomedical research network.

Currently, the protocol has successfully launched 7 sub-DAOs, with another 3 under development. The launched sub-DAOs cover fields such as longevity science, women's health, anti-aging, psychedelic science, hair loss research, cryopreservation, and brain health. The sub-DAOs under development include long-term effects of COVID-19, quantum biology, and genetic disease research.

2.3 Solana eco DeSci platform

The DeSci platform of a certain ecosystem is a Meme launch platform, issuing Meme tokens that represent pharmaceuticals on this ecosystem. Related conceptual tokens include:

• RIF: Stands for Rifampicin, an antibiotic with anti-aging potential.
• URO: Represents Urothione A, a compound that may extend lifespan.
• TRACKEDBIO: A project dedicated to improving the efficiency of drug development.

2.4 Other related projects

• Scihub: Unofficial token that supports the open-source research paper website.
• ANTI and PRO: A pair of quantum entangled combination tokens that express different attitudes towards Meme Tokens.
• WORM: The first on-chain digital brain, simulating the neural network of the elegant Caenorhabditis elegans.
• GENOME: A project for the datafication of genes, focusing on the secure monetization of genomic data.
• GALEON: Revolutionizing electronic health record management using blockchain.
• DRUGS: Medical and Pharmaceutical Meme Coin, aimed at disrupting the traditional pharmaceutical industry.
• RSC: A tokenized social network that rewards scientists for sharing academic content.

Conclusion: The Continuing Impact of AI Agents and DeSci

Although AI Agents and DeSci are currently still primarily driven by memes, their fundamental attributes differ from other meme logics:

• Technical support: Compared to pure internet memes, AI Agents and DeSci are more in line with the commodity economic cycle and require technical support.

• Breaking the Circle: DeSci needs external breaking the circle, relying on influential figures; AI Agent needs internal breaking the circle, focusing on practicality and fun.

• Growth Logic: The DeSci track has not yet produced large-scale leading projects, and there is still room for growth; the AI Agent requires iterative improvements to its own gameplay.

Overall, AI Agent aligns more closely with market expectations in terms of technological development trends and has stronger potential for going mainstream; DeSci benefits from the attention of industry leaders and support from investment institutions. In the current environment of insufficient market innovation, AI Agent and DeSci are expected to become the main focus of speculation in the next bull market.
