There are still many noteworthy projects in the Web3 space in 2025. In data intelligence, Nansen continues to focus on on-chain data analysis. In the NFT and trading market sectors, OpenSea remains the leader, while Polymarket is a representative in the on-chain prediction market field.
On the public chain and infrastructure side, Base, launched by Coinbase as an L2 solution, remains important, along with MetaMask as a leading wallet. Additionally, emerging public chains like Soltice and Abstract are exploring new technological routes.
In DeFi and assets, projects like Tria, Rialo, Tempo, and Ethos each have their own focus, while Cascade and Seismic are attempting innovations in different sectors. For wallets and security tools, Rabby, idOS, and Wallchain are working on privacy and identity-related solutions.
There are also projects like EdgeX, SIXR Cricket, Prjx, USDAI, Fogo, Somnia, Octra, Ritual, and Xeet, which are distributed across niche areas such as trading, stablecoins, AI, and Web3 applications, each pushing forward different innovative directions. This list is more of a personal observation; specific investments still require your own research.

Are these projects all clustered together? Do I need to verify whether they are real or not?
Speaking of which, Base is still quite popular now, but will Abstract be the next "star public chain" story...
I've been using Rabby and idOS, and they do have some interesting ideas in privacy, but I haven't really studied Wallchain in depth.
OpenSea has been the leader for so many years; the NFT space is indeed quite competitive.
Polymarket prediction markets have really gained traction in recent years. I wasn't paying much attention before, so I need to catch up.
My impression is that everything is being validated; there are no absolute winners. Let's see who can survive until 2026.
The DeFi projects are pretty similar; you need to keep an eye on on-chain data, or you'll easily get liquidated.

Wow, this list is quite comprehensive. To be honest, I've been using Nansen’s data analysis tools for a while, and they are indeed very useful. The competition between Base and Polygon is becoming increasingly fierce, and it seems that the days for new public chains are not looking too good.

Hey, why aren't the few small players I follow on this list?
Base and Metamask have already jumped on board. Now let's see if these new chains can turn things around.
Nansen's data is indeed useful, but what's the recent activity with Polymarket? It doesn't feel as hot as before.
I need to do more research on Tria and Ethos in the DeFi sector. Privacy wallets are definitely the current trend.
It feels like there are too many projects listed. At the beginning of the year, I should select a few to focus on and dig deeper.

Speaking of this list, there are quite a few unfamiliar faces, gotta dig into it more
I've been using Base and Metamask for a while, but Abstract is the first time I've heard of it
Nansen data is indeed useful, but subscribing is a bit pricey
Privacy wallets like Rabby might become a necessity in the future
Is OpenSea still around? Feels like the hype has cooled down quite a bit
I've never even heard of those DeFi projects, but anyway, we'll see once they go live
Prediction markets definitely have potential; Polymarket made a killing last year
Another batch of stablecoins? Isn't USDT enough?
This list looks comprehensive but doesn't seem to have any real killer app

So many new projects, it feels a bit overwhelming. It's still safest to stick with your wallet.
