Looking for new projects in 2023? Here's another list of protocols to keep your eyes on heading into the new year. (You haven't heard of most of these before) 🧵 👇 (Part 2)
@FactorDAO The building blocks of asset management, launching soon on Arbitrum. Create custom indices and receive management fees. Will be a protocol acting as proof-of-concept for the anti-larper.

Next up is the AI narrative. I couldn't pin point a singular project, but we've seen many a project blow up after ChatGPT went live Machine learning, image + video creation, writing, voice are all topics I'm interested in. Projects like @bittensor_ have been mentioned to me https://twitter.com/RvCrypto/status/1603351350414188549
@KromatikaFi A metaDEX aggregator, providing you the best rates. Have used them for limit orders which paired with deep liquidity pairs provides a decent experience. DEX competition is super high so savings + more functionality is an easy pick for me https://twitter.com/RiddlerDeFi/status/1609634588120203264
@UnstoppableFi New DEX looking to build an on-chain CEX alternative - Single sided LPing splitting sustainable yield assets - instant on/off ramps - integrated wallet - Token sale coming Q1 (tentative) Bold claims, even bolder devs, looking forward to their updates. https://twitter.com/UnstoppableFi/status/1604080404427833346

Like AI, I do think one BNB perpetual can make it big this year, but I'm still unsure which one. We've seen GMX forks like @syrupfinance, native perps with @PancakeSwap and other main competitors like: $PALM, $LVL, $EDE Someone has to take the cake, maybe it's Binance.

@FANtiumOfficial Protocol bootstrapping athletes careers buy purchasing ownership in future prize money through NFTs. Quite sentimental to me, as this would of come in handy two years ago. Bunch of new athletes onboarding this year. https://medium.com/@FANtium/fantium-raises-2m-angel-investment-to-democratize-athlete-financing-3838fd7523ad
Shout out to @thedefiedge for hook inspiration, he's been of great help over these past four months of growth. As he mentioned below mentorship, no matter how long or short it is, is simply brain steroids for both partners if done correctly. https://twitter.com/thedefiedge/status/1608431428605464584
