Polygon Miden is an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution based on zk-STARKs (zero-knowledge scalable transparent proof of knowledge) launched by Polygon, which aims to improve the scalability and security of the Ethereum network.

Herd is building a collaborative terminal (coterminal) for contracts that allows users to work with agents to compose existing onchain contracts into offchain and onchain outputs. Herd enables users and their team (human or AI) to search, understand, and act together.

delta is a network of autonomous execution environments that are connected via a decentralized, censorship resistant base layer. delta separates execution and ordering from data availability and settlement. delta provides two inalienable rights to its users — the right to self-custody and the right to exit permissionlessly.

Puffpaw is a dePIN on Berachain to bring vapes onchain. Puffpaw is creating a unique vape to monitor the smoking activity and gamify the whole experience to incentivize people to quit smoking.

Lagrange is a Zero-Knowledge Coprocessing protocol that enables verifiable computations at big data scale across various blockchains. Its unique ZK Coprocessing approach involves a decentralized network of nodes that execute computations off-chain and generate ZK proofs of the results to submit on-chain, in a hyper-parallel manner, thereby unlocking significant efficiency and cost gains. By providing hyper-scalable proving, Lagrange opens the door for innovations in cross-chain interoperability and applications requiring complex computations over big data.

Berachain is a high-performance EVM-compatible blockchain built on Proof-of-Liquidity consensus. Proof-of-Liquidity is a novel consensus mechanism that aims to align network incentives, creating strong synergy between Berachain validators and the ecosystem of projects. Berachain's technology is built on Polaris, a high-performance blockchain framework for building EVM-compatible chains on-top of the CometBFT consensus engine.

Catalyst is an open-source protocol that provides liquidity between modular blockchains. With Catalyst, any new modular chain can automatically connect and swap with any other chain, including liquidity hubs such as Ethereum and Cosmos.

Irys is the Layer-1 datachain, advancing beyond the existing Layer-1 model with a design purpose-built for AI. By combining a low-cost storage layer with a high-performance, EVM-compatible execution layer (IrysVM), Irys enables data programmability.

Recall is a project building a network for AI agents to store, share, and trade knowledge onchain. It enables agents to prove and monetize data, using blockchain for recording transactions and strategies. Recall is merged by Textile and Ceramic development company 3Box Labs.

Hyperverse is an open, secure, blockchain code marketplace created and managed by the newly-formed HyperverseDAO and its growing community of web developers. It makes it easy for JavaScript developers to build robust blockchain apps by using an expanding collection of on-chain, modular smart contracts.
