Crypto Hidden Gems | New L1, AI Agent Framework, and RWA

Keeta, Wayfinder, and Collateralize are the projects that captured our attention this week, with their efficient cross-chain transactions, and tokenization of real-world assets

We scored multiple projects this week. Here are a few you should know about:

  • Keeta 

  • WayFinder

  • Collateralize

Please remember that some of these projects still need our code review process. Still, we want to call them out here because they preliminarily caught our eye based on our fundamental analysis process.

1. Keeta - 62.50%

Sector - L1

Status - Active

Keeta is a layer-1 blockchain network designed to bridge traditional finance and digital assets, emphasizing scalability, security, and regulatory compliance. Unlike traditional blockchains, Keeta employs a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structure, enabling it to process an impressive 10M transactions per second (TPS) with a settlement time of 400 milliseconds. This positions Keeta as one of the most scalable blockchain networks available, making it a strong candidate for institutional adoption.

1.1. Features

  • Cross-Chain Interoperability: Keeta enables seamless and instant asset transfers across different blockchain networks, acting as a unifying layer for all payment networks and assets.

  • Built-In Tokenization and Compliance: The platform supports native tokenization of real-world assets and incorporates compliance protocols, such as digital identity verification, to meet regulatory standards for traditional finance.

  • Unprecedented Scalability: With 10M TPS and 400ms settlement, Keeta outperforms many existing blockchains, addressing industry scalability bottlenecks.

  • Ease of Integration: Systems can easily connect to Keeta’s ecosystem, enhancing liquidity and utility by allowing assets to interact seamlessly.

1.2. Token

$KTA is the native utility and governance token of the ecosystem. KTA is used to pay transaction fees across the Keeta network, powering and prioritizing transfers and settlements between blockchains and assets.

Token holders can stake KTA to participate in the network’s hybrid consensus mechanism. Stakers help secure the network and, in return, receive staking rewards in KTA, incentivizing long-term participation and decentralization.

The token facilitates direct, near-instant settlement of transactions across multiple blockchains, as a bridge for liquidity and interoperability between otherwise siloed networks.

1.3. Investors

Eric Schmidt, former Google CEO, is an investor and an advisor to Keeta. He led a $17M funding round in June 2023, along with a few other investors. 

1.4. Where to Buy the Token?

The trader grade signal for $KTA turned bullish on May 10 on the Token Metrics platform at $0.25, and since then, the token has 3x to $0.75. Sign up on Token Metrics to capture such early alpha and trade directly on the platform, across chains, through a self-custodial wallet. 

$KTA trades on centralized exchanges LBank and BingX, and decentralized exchanges Aerodrome, Uniswap, and others. 

2. WayFinder - 63.75%

Sector - AI

Status - Active

Wayfinder is an omnichain protocol that leverages artificial intelligence to simplify complex blockchain interactions. By enabling user-owned AI agents, or “shells,” to autonomously navigate blockchain ecosystems, Wayfinder makes tasks like token swaps, bridging, and smart contract interactions accessible through a natural language interface. It operates on blockchains like Ethereum, Base, Solana, and Cosmos.

2.1. Features

  • AI Agents (Shells): Autonomous agents that execute transactions, interact with smart contracts, and perform tasks like NFT minting and trading.

  • Wayfinding Paths: A community-developed network of “smart maps” for smart contracts, enabling secure and efficient navigation across blockchain ecosystems.

  • Natural Language Interface: Users can interact with the platform using simple, chatbot-like commands, reducing the complexity of blockchain operations.

  • Cross-Chain Compatibility: Supports multiple blockchains, enhancing interoperability and reducing cross-chain complexity.

2.2. Token

The PROMPT token is the native utility and governance token of the Wayfinder protocol. It has a total supply of 1B, of which 22.3% is circulating.

2.2.1 Utility: 

  • Powering AI Agents ("Shells")

  • Unlocking and Executing Wayfinding Paths

  • Payment for Network and Computing Resources

  • Staking and Incentives

  • Governance

2.3. Investors

Wayfinder is an AI-powered, omni-chain protocol developed by Parallel Studios. That project attracted significant investment from institutional venture capital firms like Paradigm, Solana Ventures, etc., and prominent angel investors.

2.4. Where to Buy the Token?

$PROMPT trades Bitget, OrangeX, Coinbase, OKX, Gate, and others on centralized exchanges. 

3. Collateralize

Sector - RWA

Status - Active

Collateralize is a Solana-based tokenization platform for real-world assets (RWAs), enabling fractional ownership of assets like real estate, art, and DeFi strategies starting at just $1.

Built on the Collaterize Layer 1 Protocol, it offers instant transactions with zero gas fees, making it accessible to retail and institutional investors.

3.1. Features:

  • RWA Tokenization: Transforms assets into digital shares, enabling fractional ownership and shared revenue streams.

  • Accessibility: Users can buy, sell, and send tokenized assets using crypto or credit cards, with no complex wallet setup required.

  • Zero Gas Fees: The platform leverages Solana’s efficiency to offer cost-free transactions.

  • Diverse Asset Portfolio: Supports assets like real estate (e.g., Paris - Haussmann Building, art (e.g., Space Invader), and DeFi strategies (e.g., Ondo Finance USDY).

3.2. Token

The $COLLAT is designed as a utility and governance token within the Collaterize ecosystem. It has a total supply of about 1B. 

3.2.1. Utility

  • Governance and DAO Participation

  • Exposure to RWA-Backed Treasury

  • Rewards, Gamification, and Airdrops

  • Access to Asset-Based DAOs

3.3. Where to Buy the Token?

The trader grade signal for $COLLAT turned bullish on May 11 on the Token Metrics platform at $0.02, and since then, the token has 3.5x to $0.07. Sign up on Token Metrics to capture such early alpha and trade directly on the platform, across chains, through a self-custodial wallet.

$COLLAT trades on centralized exchanges LBank, Hotcoin, MEXC, and decentralized exchanges Raydium, Meteora, and others.
