Ranked list

Aerodrome Ignition
Other · Base
Aerodrome Ignition is a token launch mechanism on Base that seeds Aerodrome liquidity pools with part of a project's supply instead of running a presale. It suits teams and traders who want market-priced launches, with the usual risks of new tokens.
ScoreScore 6.8 out of 10TVL $15.5M−7.2% - 2
Royco V2
Other · Ethereum, Avalanche, Base +1
Royco V2 is a yield protocol that splits a yield source into Senior, Junior and Senior LP tranches, so allocators can choose protection or higher returns. It suits experienced users, and the main caveat is that Junior takes losses first.
ScoreScore 6.8 out of 10TVL $6.54M−55.7% - 3
Royco V1
Other · Arbitrum, Ethereum, Sonic +5
Royco is a yield-market protocol that splits a yield source into Senior (protected) and Junior (first-loss) tranches. Its pitch is transparent, comparable markets for capital allocators, but Junior positions carry real loss risk.
ScoreScore 6.8 out of 10TVL $1.53M+0.1% - 4
Bio Protocol
Other · Ethereum, Base
Bio Protocol is a decentralized science (DeSci) platform that combines an AI research tool, a community launchpad and a governance token, BIO. It is an early, niche way to back biotech research, with limited audit information.
ScoreScore 6.4 out of 10TVL $2.71M−2.4% - 5
Hello
Other · Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base
HELLO Labs is a Web3 media and accelerator business that produces the crypto pitch show Killer Whales and runs a token-based DEX and staking layer around it. The main takeaway: the TV and accelerator side is well documented, while fees, audits and tokenomics beyond supply are thinly published.
ScoreScore 6.3 out of 10TVL — - 6
Flap sh
Other · BNB Chain, Robinhood Chain, X Layer +2
Flap is a token launchpad that lets anyone create and trade a token in one click on BNB Chain and other EVM networks. It is a permissionless, high-risk memecoin venue, not a vetted marketplace.
ScoreScore 6.0 out of 10TVL $3.34M−7.2% - 7
Elephant Money
Other · BNB Chain, Base, Solana
Elephant Money is a BNB Chain protocol built around the ELEPHANT rewards token and the TRUNK stablecoin, offering yield products and NFTs. The pitch is yield in any market, but the project does not publish how that yield is sustained.
ScoreScore 5.5 out of 10TVL $0 - 8
Printr
Other · Solana, Mantle, Ethereum +5
Printr is an omnichain token launchpad that lets creators deploy tokens on up to eight chains in one step, with bonding curves and configurable fee splits. It is a young, unaudited product, so treat it as high risk.
ScoreScore 5.5 out of 10TVL — - 9
Subquery Network
Other · Ethereum, Base
SubQuery Network is a decentralized data indexing and query network where consumers pay in the SQT token for blockchain data served by independent node operators. It is aimed at developers who need fast, structured access to on-chain data, and the main takeaway is that its value depends on whether that data demand materialises.
ScoreScore 5.2 out of 10TVL — - 10
g8keep
Other · Base
g8keep is a token launchpad on Base that deploys ERC-20 tokens with built-in anti-sniper protection. It is small and unaudited by public listing, so treat it as a high-risk, early-stage tool.
ScoreScore 5.0 out of 10TVL $142K−0.4% - 11
Elephant Dex Casino
Other · Base, BNB Chain, Solana
Elephant Money is a DeFi project with tokens and products described for yield, borrowing, and prediction mining. Its website offers limited detail on the underlying mechanisms, so treat its yield claims cautiously.
ScoreNot rated yetTVL — - 12
Spixfi
Other · Base
