I don't think every protocol fits neatly into the same category. For example, Pear Protocol isn't just a perp DEX — Agent Pear is an AI quant engine scanning 1000's of pairs for statistical mispricings (metrics like z-score, cointegration, and mean reversion), to generate pair trades (e.g., HYPE/DYDX, BTC/SOL) TreadFi isn't just a terminal — it's building a platform where AI agents can execute trades on your behalf Midas Markets is "AI trading" just as much as it is a perp DEX at its core AFX is building infrastructure designed to support AI agents, so it goes beyond being "just a perp DEX." The categories are more nuanced than they appear. Regardless, appreciate the list @louisdives. Perp Dex: 1. @pear_protocol-> pair trading, long one asset, and short another asset with one click (undervalued i think) 2. @TxFlow_L1-> new perp dex, build their own L1, no VCs, active making campaign. 3. @AFX_XYZ-> new perp dex as well, community driven, 65% airdrop for community. 4. @perpltrade-> perp dex in monad eco, monad community really bullish on this projects. 5. @variational_io-> i know you really bullish on this perp dex, right? 6. others: AI Trade: 1. @nansen_ai-> the biggest name AI for trading and on-chain analysis. 2. @get_truenorth-> the first agentic brokerage. AI agents handle research, signals, and execution. 3. @midasmarketsxyz-> AI-native multi-asset platform. Crypto, equities, commodities, FX in one screen. 4. @Sidera_AI-> The unique value of this AI is that Sidera AI displays market insights or ideas when you open its homepage, even before you enter a prompt. Terminal: 1. @arbital_xyz-> market making engine for perp dexs, deploy maker only strategies, the new one, but so far has the lowest cpm, insane, right? 2. @tread_fi-> institutional-grade OEMS and algo terminal. AI agents like Desk Trader and a Delta Neutral bot. 3. @CarbonTerminal-> solver-driven perps on Arbitrum across crypto, stocks, forex, indices and commodities. 4. @miracletrade-> a mobile aggregator that puts Hyperliquid, Lighter and Extended in one self-custody app.
