Beyond the Bear Market: A Comprehensive Review of Upcoming Top-Tier Public Chain Eco Projects Ready for TGE
Last night, Berachain went live on a mainstream trading platform, with the price briefly exceeding $15. The bulls and bears fiercely battled, and in less than 24 hours, the trading volume surpassed $2.2 billion. However, the price has since retraced 50% from its peak, leaving many to lament that this was yet another bearish feast.

According to Kaito's Mindshare ranking, today's top-ranking crypto projects include MegaETH, Monad, Story, Abstract, and more. These well-known projects have not yet conducted their Token Generation Events (TGE). BlockBeats has compiled a list of popular projects in their ecosystem for readers to reference.

MegaETH
MegaETH has just announced the launch of a new NFT series called The Fluffle, with a total supply of 10,000. The whitelist price is set at 1 ETH, and holders are entitled to 5% of future token allocations. However, due to the high pricing, the community has accused the project of engaging in a liquidity grab. Moreover, the fact that it has not yet launched on the testnet has raised doubts about its delivery capabilities. Nevertheless, its ecosystem projects have garnered increasing attention from the community recently. Below are some popular projects in the MegaETH ecosystem.
GTE
Global Token Exchange (GTE) is the flagship exchange platform in the MegaETH ecosystem. On January 17, GTE announced that it had raised $10 million in three rounds of funding. This includes $1.5 million in pre-seed funding, $6.942 million in seed funding, and $2.5 million in community funding, the latter of which was carried out on the platform Echo founded by crypto trader Jordan Fish (aka Cobie).

GTE enables users to trade with the best prices by integrating features such as asset creation, spot, and leverage trading. The platform also provides fair Launchpad and Takeoff services for token issuance while ensuring that users always have control of their funds. Users can enjoy centralized exchange-like speed and liquidity while maintaining decentralized security and transparency.
CAP Labs
CAP is a stablecoin engine that provides on-chain yield through external revenue sources such as arbitrage, MEV, and RWAs. Unlike traditional internally collateralized designs, CAP offers a flexible yield strategy where users only need to choose the stablecoin denomination they wish to hold, behind which a continuously evolving strategy generates yield. CAP's stablecoins are redeemable on demand and fully decentralized, ensuring users always have control of their assets while avoiding the high risks and opacity of traditional finance. According to MegaETH team member Jin, CAP has completed a $1.9 million pre-seed funding round.

Euphoria
Euphoria is a derivatives trading platform that aims to redefine the derivatives trading experience, transforming the traditional complex and serious trading process into a relaxed, social, and fun interactive form. Through its mobile-first Tap Trading platform, Euphoria enables users to engage with the market in a more intuitive, gamified manner without worrying about complex technical details.

Founders Nathan and Casey have extensive backgrounds in the crypto industry. Nathan previously founded LocalCoinSwap and accumulated rich trading and product development experience in the crypto space, then established DeFi Cartel before ultimately founding Euphoria. Casey is an educator and business development expert in the crypto industry, fully immersing himself in DeFi upon discovery and exiting his crypto education company in 2024.
Noise
Noise is an innovative project within the MegaETH ecosystem dedicated to building a new trading paradigm in the crypto market called "Mindshare" trading. The platform isolates the implicit influencing factors of "mindshare" from traditional market analysis and transforms them into a tradable asset class. Users can trade not only the tokens themselves but also the market sentiment for a specific token or sector.

This mechanism provides a new dimension for market analysis, allowing traders to trade based on market sentiment fluctuations and changes in attention, thereby creating new investment strategies. Through this innovation, Noise may change the price discovery mechanism of traditional markets, shifting trading focus not only around asset prices but expanding it to the game of "market mind," bringing a more efficient and transparent pricing system to the market.
Monad
On February 4, the parallel EVM network Monad hinted that the testnet will launch sometime this month, and here are the currently popular projects in its ecosystem.
aPriori
aPriori is Monad's native MEV-driven liquidity staking platform, aiming to optimize Monad's network performance and user experience by developing a new MEV and liquidity staking architecture. Currently, aPriori has raised a total of $10.7 million, and its team members come from the high-frequency trading sector, with experience at top companies like Jump Crypto, Flow Traders, and Coinbase.

aPriori has proposed a new MEVA design paradigm: probabilistic valuation. This solution uses a partially block-sized auction, allowing builders to construct the top of blocks from the packages submitted by searchers, while validators append the remaining transactions from the public mempool. This approach significantly reduces latency, maximizing alignment with Monad's performance.
Kuru
Kuru is a fully on-chain order book platform that completed a $2 million seed round financing in July last year with support from the Monad blockchain. Kuru has achieved high throughput and low transaction costs, enabling market makers to frequently update quotes without the burden of high fees and slow block times, thus providing better prices and lower slippage. Kuru's design optimizes the EVM environment, allowing users to create and cancel limit orders with lower fixed gas fees, thereby enhancing market liquidity and spread.

Kintsu
Kintsu is Monad's native liquidity staking protocol, aiming to address the liquidity issue in traditional PoS staking, providing users with a more flexible and valuable staking method that allows users to securely lock up their funds while fully utilizing their assets. It completed a $4 million seed round financing in July of last year.

NFT Series
The Monad ecosystem places a strong emphasis on NFT culture, and the following are some of the NFT series that have garnered community attention:
A characteristic PFP NFT based on the Monad ecosystem, inspired by the Monad ecosystem mascot "Chog".
An eagerly anticipated NFT project on the Monad chain, with its core product being the Monanimals NFT series.
A futuristic-style PFP NFT project initiated by Monad community members @barrybutterhand and @edenwagmi.
An early NFT project in the Monad ecosystem, built by @andlfthegreat, @jakxpixel, and @0xkaya_.
Story Protocol
On February 4th, Story Protocol released its whitepaper for The Story, with the mainnet set to launch soon. It has also initiated a new round of incentives on Binance. Below are some popular projects in the Story ecosystem.
PiperX
PiperX is the native DEX of the Story Protocol ecosystem.

Spotlight Protocol
Spotlight is a platform that combines AI, crypto, and meme culture, aiming to transform "story" into an economy. Through Story Protocol, Spotlight enables intellectual property (IP) to become a tradable, stakeable, and self-protecting asset, addressing core issues faced by traditional meme coins such as lack of branding and creator benefits.

As a decentralized layer for IP verification and liquidity, Spotlight not only provides a new economic incentive system for IP creators, Token creators, and the community but also builds a unique IP governance mechanism through market trust weight. In this way, Spotlight truly turns Meme culture into a valuable economic engine, driving the comprehensive development of IP on the blockchain.
Benjamin
The first DeFAI-focused AI Agent in the Story ecosystem, supported by the IP management and lending marketplace Unleash Protocol on Story.

Abstract
On January 27, the Layer 2 network Abstract Chain, designed for on-chain culture and communities, has launched its mainnet. The project was developed by Igloo Inc., the parent company of the NFT project Pudgy Penguins, which previously acquired the on-chain creator economy platform Frame. According to community feedback, Abstract currently values user activity, and different roles have various ways to participate in the mainnet ecosystem. Below are some popular projects in the Abstract ecosystem.
Roach Racing Club: A gamified trading race universe where players control crypto-related roaches and compete for rewards.
Moonshot: A Memecoin launchpad provided by DexScreener, where users can quickly conduct a fair coin launch for less than $2 and receive a free enhanced token listing.
Witty: A player-versus-player puzzle (PvZ) gaming platform where players create puzzle challenges, set rewards, invite others to participate, and earn cryptocurrency.
Multiplier: A platform focused on earning above-average returns in the meme and metaverse space.
Vibes TCG: A hybrid digital and physical trading card game featuring the officially licensed Pudgy Penguins IP, where players can collect, trade, and compete with Pudgy Penguins of unique abilities and rarity to build their dream card deck.
