Editor's Note: The AI track is seeing a rebound, with SNAI leading the way, the DeFAI ecosystem rapidly rising, and decentralized IP value gaining attention. AI is accelerating its penetration into DeFi, hackathons, and investment DAOs. Which projects can continue to make breakthroughs? This article takes you through the latest developments.
The following is the original content (slightly reorganized for better readability):
Who is performing strongly? The most eye-catching performance of this round is still SwarmNode.
SNAI surged by 55% in the past 24 hours (a 136% increase for the week); speculators are enthusiastic about the concept of serverless infrastructure.

"In the AI era, IP is value storage." — @jasonjzhao (founder of storyprotocol)
Immutable IP rights are becoming an important value pillar in the AI era, especially with the support of parallel contract architecture, these rights can be easily recorded on decentralized infrastructure.

DeFAI ecosystem TVL is rapidly accumulating — this trend will become the new UX of DeFi.
The deposit scale managed by Gizatechxyz has exceeded $500,000, and its thousands of Agents have been launched on the Base and Mode mainnets.

Another DeFAI solution worth attention. HeyAnonai has launched and is ready for the next market swing!

Focus on hackathons and data and solution integration between protocols.
The Cookie Hackathon is in full swing, and here is a fantastic recap from ARAinfra on Swarm API integration.

The Story Protocol recently hinted at a possible token distribution to kaitoai contributors, but other AI-related protocols are also gradually going live.
0G_labs logged into the platform 3 hours ago—delving into their documentation can provide insights into the application of AI Alignment Nodes in machine learning.

Wayfinder is still in stealth mode, with only a few having gained early access.
Market rumors suggest that DeFAI may disrupt the current DeFi landscape, advising close monitoring of the Parallel ecosystem's developments.

The DeFAI Cartel has successfully raised funds. It is an investment DAO built on Mode, specifically supporting emerging DeFAI protocols.
Currently, DeFAI's MVP (Minimum Viable Product) has hit the market, but a mature full protocol is expected to launch in the coming months.

Orbitcryptoai has hinted at releasing an updated dashboard for users.
In the future, will we see a more familiar interface become the new UX for DeFi?

Moemates showcased how to easily build an AI Agent—without writing a single line of code!

Mode's ecosystem Demo Day is approaching; those interested can delve deeper into the latest developments in the AI ecosystem.
