Comet Protocol is a cross-chain communication aggregator designed to seamlessly connect Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other Layer 1 blockchains. Inspired by the enduring nature of comets, the protocol aims to enable secure, continuous, and uninterrupted asset transfers across multiple blockchain networks.

The project is currently self-funded and does not have a formal governance process in place. Comet Protocol has not yet issued a token, with the tokenomics still in development.






Athena is a decentralized insurance protocol that uses ERC-721 tokens (NFTs) to represent liquidity positions and insurance covers, enabling detailed customization and efficient user interaction. Liquidity providers deposit ERC-20 tokens, receiving Position NFTs representing their stake, while cover buyers deposit premiums to receive Cover NFTs representing their insurance coverage. These NFTs store individualized data, allowing for flexible coverage limits, liquidity strategies, and seamless claim or withdrawal processes. By combining DeFi strategies with tokenized contracts, Athena ensures transparency, security, and user-friendly access to decentralized insurance solutions


Polynomial Trade is an on-chain derivatives platform with a focus on perpetual futures, enhanced by the security of the Synthetix protocol and the Optimism Network. Its distinctive approach using polynomial functions for price prediction allows traders to make more dynamic market decisions. Although currently without a governance structure or a live token, the potential introduction of a token could benefit the platform by incentivizing user engagement and capturing value. Polynomial has raised two successful funding rounds, raising $1.10 million in a Pre-Seed round and securing further investment in a Seed round, with backing from several notable investors and capital firms.
