The year-end finale is here - Sentient.

Let's talk about the numbers first: $85 million in financing in 2024. What is the level of the investment lineup? Peter Thiel's Founders Fund, Pantera Capital, Framework Ventures led the investment, followed by Delphi Ventures and Arrington Capital.

The more hardcore is the team. Polygon co-founder Sandeep personally operates, do you remember his speech at Shenzhen University? The original words were, "We want to build AGI in East Asia and create a smart world that is accessible to everyone." It is rare for a Western team to attach so much importance to the East Asian market, and it is full of sincerity.

My understanding is that Sentient is Sandeep's second venture after Polygon - a deep integration experiment between AI and Web3. With Polygon's success genes and original cast, this time it's even bigger.

Team background, capital volume, investor lineup, industry influence, four dimensions are top-of-the-line. The trend of a project of this magnitude is basically the vane of the entire crypto market. How to use Marketing and how it performs after launch will become a reference template for other projects.

Is it worth looking forward to? My answer is: before 2026, I can't find a second project that can be played like this.
