As 2024 came to a close, premier investment banks and institutions worldwide unveiled their strategic outlooks for 2025. A recurring theme across reports from BlackRock, Barclays, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and others is the frequent mention of one term: "AI." Investors seem to be aligning on the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, drawing parallels to the early days of the internet two or three decades ago. This article highlights and recommends several promising AI agent projects. While the mid-to-long-term outlook for AI agents is positive, the recent surge in valuations underscores the need for thorough research (DYOR) when timing investments.

AI agents are rapidly evolving toward greater autonomy and intelligence. Once considered mere tools, they have now transformed into intelligent entities capable of independently executing complex tasks. A collaborative ecosystem is emerging, enabling multiple AI agents to work together—not just as assistants, but as decision-makers and operators in challenging environments. Technological advancements, such as improved tool integration and personalized memory capabilities, empower AI agents to perform tasks with greater precision and adaptability. AI agents are making waves in industries like finance, healthcare, and education, offering highly personalized services. As the technology matures, anticipation continues to grow for its implementation in businesses and B2B solutions, with 2025 poised to be a pivotal year for growth and adoption.

The Trump family's World Liberty Financial has recently made frequent investments in high-quality crypto assets, reflecting strong confidence in the future of the crypto industry. With Trump successfully elected as President and preparing to take office, his previously pro-crypto statements, if implemented, could further drive the growth of the crypto sector. Meanwhile, the projects selected by World Liberty Financial boast strong fundamentals and promising growth potential, positioning them as key players in the crypto space that stand to benefit from the industry's continued expansion.


AI, blockchain technology, and bioscience are regarded as three transformative technologies of the 21st century. Projects that integrate AI and blockchain are gaining momentum, attracting substantial interest from institutional investors in the primary market and participants in the secondary market. In a bullish market environment, numerous quality projects are expected to emerge. Google recently unveiled its quantum computing chip Willow, while OpenAI officially launched the video generation tool Sora, bringing AI projects back into the spotlight.

Over the past year, the performance of ETH and its ecosystem has been underwhelming, with the ETH/BTC ratio down by 30% year-to-date. However, it's important to note that BTC has faced a monthly-level correction after hitting resistance at $100,000, while Solana's DEX volumes have seen a significant decline. These shifts suggest that capital is starting to flow back into the ETH ecosystem, with whales quietly accumulating assets over the past year. Several promising projects within the ETH ecosystem and on EVM chains are worth highlighting.

As the regulatory landscape for DeFi and cryptocurrencies in the United States becomes clearer, top-performing DeFi projects with strong profitability are poised to give their tokens genuine value. This could involve using a portion of their profits for token buybacks or directly distributing profits to token holders. If these proposals are implemented, the valuations of these DeFi projects could experience significant upward adjustments. Early market interest has already emerged, making these projects worth investors' attention.

Last week, Vitalik Buterin and CZ hosted the DeSci (Decentralized Science) conference at Devcon, where Vitalik unveiled the first DeSci product. CZ also expressed ambitions to see 1000 DeSci products next year, sparking widespread attention to the DeSci concept across the industry. Key speculative projects, RIF and URO, each surpassed a market cap of $100 million. As the sector continues to grow, DeSci remains an area worth close attention.

Aptos and Sui, two new public blockchain projects developed with the Move programming language, have recently garnered significant attention in the secondary market. Sui led the way with a steady price increase since early August, up sixfold in three months. Aptos has since followed, driven by ongoing support from the Aptos Foundation. Both Move-based projects have presented notable trading opportunities over the past quarter.

The Solana ecosystem has shown remarkable performance this year. The 24-hour trading volume on Solana's DEXs frequently surpasses that of Ethereum, and the SOL/ETH exchange rate has steadily risen. Coinbase's recent Q3 earnings report revealed that SOL now accounts for 11% of its trading revenue, highlighting users' strong interest in trading SOL. During this market cycle, it can be advantageous to hold SOL positions. Additionally, holding SOL-based LSTs allows you to earn annualized returns that are denominated in SOL. Bitget has partnered with Solayer, Orca, Save, and Kamino to launch BGSOL, and will work to expand BGSOL's applications. With the support from Bitget, BGSOL currently offers the highest APR among SOL-based LSTs.
