Below are my thoughts on the @cookiedotfun DeFAI Hackathon.
It wasn't until late in the event that I realized projects with tokens would be disqualified (even though many such projects were prominently featured on the Cookie DeFAI Hackathon dashboard).
Nevertheless, this hackathon still attracted many high-quality teams who built very unique products.
From the winners' list, it's clear that all winning projects were entirely new ideas.
Next, I'll share a few of the most interesting projects, starting from those that were disqualified, all the way to the ultimate winners.
Let's get started.
1. AlphaSwarm by @TheoriqAI
AlphaSwarm is a Python-based toolkit designed specifically for DeFAI autonomous trading agents.
It allows users to fetch real-time market and social signals from @cookiedotfun and execute trade strategies across multiple blockchains using natural language.

3. Homo Memetus by @homo_memetus
Homo Memetus is a DeFAI ecosystem that innovatively tokenizes trading strategies and, through simulating "natural selection," allows these strategies to compete with each other (or with humans) to filter out the most profitable strategies.
The project's vision and roadmap are impressive, but it is currently in a very early stage of development.
4. Anti-Rug Agent by @AntiRugAgent
Anti-Rug Agent is a comprehensive security tool designed for Solana developers.
It analyzes liquidity, wallets, internal transactions, code repositories, and GitHub data through @repoanalyzer to provide users with an AI security score. This makes it a powerful tool for conducting due diligence (DD).
5. BevorAI (Formerly CertaiK)
@CertaiK_Agent is a Virtuals-based tool aimed at popularizing smart contract audits. Through AI technology, it can complete an audit in 30 seconds, significantly improving efficiency.
The team recently introduced an AI Agent Security Scoring feature and added Live Automated Risk Prevention (LARP) analysis as the latest feature to identify potential security risks.
Honorable Mentions (Tokenized Agent Projects)
@jailbreakme_xyz: Focuses on AI security and anti-cracking testing, which is crucial for the extension and application of AI models.
Maya by @Flame__live: A unique DeFAI agent whose personality evolves based on market dynamics and trading strategies, demonstrating the personalized AI potential.
Cookie DeFAI Hackathon Winning Project (Non-Tokenized Project)
1. Kudo
@kudo_archi has proposed an innovative smart contract framework that can enable complex financial scenarios through Covenant NFT (cNFT), such as uncollateralized loans, employment agreements, and more. This framework opens up possibilities for advanced financial interactions between smart entities. (Click to see details)
2. Egg AI
@egg_ai_agent is a copy trading agent powered by AI, with capabilities for market research, analysis, and execution. It integrates a SocialFi layer and an AI-driven research and execution layer, offering two trading modes:
Tren Egg: A fully automated copy trading mode.
Chad Egg: A user-customizable control trading mode.
3. Aevia
@aeviaprotocol is the first smart agent designed to help users preserve their digital legacy. Upon the user's passing, Aevia can programmatically transfer messages, crypto assets, NFTs, and more to their loved ones. Additionally, the team has developed an agent that regularly reaches out to users to ensure their well-being.
Special Mention
@AgentXYZ_ai: A trading terminal that combines social features with on-chain data insights. Their recently launched AI-driven rating system provides users with buy/sell operation recommendations.
Summary
The Cookie DeFAI Hackathon has been a tremendous success, attracting many high-quality teams that have built a range of innovative DeFAI products using the DataSwarm API provided by @cookiedotfun.
However, it is regrettable that token-based projects were disqualified from the competition—many of these projects have already developed mature products beyond the conceptual stage. Hopefully, the next Cookie DeFAI Hackathon will embrace a more diverse set of participants, including teams with tokens.
Nevertheless, the level of innovation in this event has been truly impressive. DeFAI is breaking through traditional abstraction layers and autonomous trading agents, with more projects leveraging on-chain data and social sentiment data to explore genuinely unique use cases.
We are only just taking the first step.
The future of DeFAI is being created right now.

Foreign selling in the South Korean stock market accelerates, with cumulative net sales reportedly reaching $75 billion this year
On June 9, The Kobeissi Letter, citing Goldman Sachs data, reported that global investors are selling South Korean stocks at an unusually rapid pace. In the latest trading session, foreign investors sold about $801 million worth of Kospi constituent stocks again; total foreign outflows last week reached about $10 billion, and the market has been in net foreign selling on nearly every trading day over the past month. According to the data cited in the report, foreign investors have sold about $75 billion worth of South Korean stocks so far this year. Meanwhile, South Korean retail and institutional investors together recorded roughly $69 billion in net buying over the same period, suggesting that the market’s main buying support has come from domestic capital rather than returning overseas funds. The information currently disclosed still mainly comes from The Kobeissi Letter’s retelling and Goldman Sachs data summaries, while public details on the statistical period and the specific definition of “selling” remain relatively limited.

Scaling Crypto Derivatives: The Digital Asset Infrastructure Behind High-Volume Trading
In the fast-moving digital asset ecosystem, derivatives platforms face an extreme architectural test. High-leverage futures markets demand more than just standard security—they require absolute operational precision, zero-latency matching engines, and ironclad structural scalability, all while navigating intense market volatility.
As global platforms scale to meet these demands, the industry is shifting away from rigid, monolithic setups toward a more agile, "decoupled" infrastructure philosophy.
The Blueprint for High-Volume Copy TradingFor elite global exchanges like WEEX (founded in 2018), this architectural choice becomes critical when scaling high-volume retail features like social copy trading. When thousands of users automatically mirror the real-time strategies of elite traders simultaneously, it triggers sudden, monumental spikes in concurrent transactional volume.
To prevent execution latency or settlement bottlenecks during these peak volatility events, a platform's primary engine must remain entirely dedicated to risk management, copy-trade synchronization, and order matching.
The Architectural Rule: New-generation platforms must separate front-end user execution engines from heavy backend infrastructural overhead to eliminate operational friction.
By separating these layers, platforms can maintain complete sovereignty over their trading environments and user experiences while strategically aligning with institutional-grade infrastructure ecosystems. This strategic framework allows modern exchanges to leverage advanced Digital Asset Custody infrastructure such as Cobo’s behind the scenes, ensuring that backend wallet management scales elastically alongside trading spikes.
Capitalizing on Market Momentum and 400× LeverageIn a derivatives arena where platforms offer up to 400× leverage on perpetual contracts, capital efficiency and market agility are core business metrics. To capture market momentum, an exchange needs the ability to rapidly expand its asset offerings, supporting everything from legacy crypto assets to sudden, trending altcoins across a massive library of trading pairs.
Adopting a flexible, scalable Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) solution such as Cobo’s could completely rewrite the development timeline for high-growth exchanges. Instead of spending months of engineering capital building out custom backend wallet architectures for every new blockchain network, platforms can deploy localized infrastructure in days.
This agility allows platforms to instantly scale their listings to over a thousand trading pairs without compromising security or delaying time-to-market. It mirrors the exact operational advantages seen during high-velocity market events, similar to how advanced wallet infrastructure empowers platforms during sudden asset surges; allowing exchanges to pass that speed and liquidity directly to their global user base.
A Mature Foundation for GrowthThe synergy between trusted infrastructure ecosystems and global trading platforms represents the natural evolution of a maturing crypto market. As WEEX continues to scale its global spot and derivatives offerings for over 6 million users, adopting robust backend paradigms proves that platforms no longer have to compromise between cutting-edge trading velocity and uncompromised structural security.
