SwapMode offers real yields from protocol-generated swap fees, and enabling transactions at significantly lower costs. Its dual-token system, involving $SMD for transactional purposes and $xSMD for staking and earning real yield, incentivizes user participation and ensures a fair value distribution within its ecosystem. Governance is democratized through $xSMD token holders, who have voting rights on key decisions, promoting a decentralized and community-driven decision-making process. Unlike many of its counterparts, SwapMode is self-bootstrapped, emphasizing its commitment to innovation, efficiency, and community engagement without relying on external funding.
Seamless Protocol distinguishes itself as the first decentralized, non-custodial lending and borrowing platform on the Base network, with its novel Integrated Liquidity Markets (ILMs) for undercollateralized, permissionless loans. Governed by the community via the SEAM token, it fosters a democratic, decentralized approach to DeFi, emphasizing user engagement in governance without the need for external fundraising. Governance combines offchain and onchain processes, with delegation enabling voting and proposal creation.

Self Protocol is an identity verification system that leverages zero-knowledge proofs to enable Sybil-resistant token distributions and user authentication without compromising personal data. By validating user attributes such as age or location through passport verification, Self Protocol ensures that decentralized applications can authenticate real users while maintaining privacy.
The Open X Project distinguishes itself by developing intelligent contracts to facilitate the free exchange of ideas on permissionless blockchains. It integrates OpenXSwap as a comprehensive platform that combines an aggregator, NFT Market, and project management tools, encouraging knowledge exchange and collaboration. The project's native token, OpenX, incentivizes liquidity providers in Active Yield Generating Pools, with emissions decided by the core team until governance is fully implemented.
