Current price:$4.91

Market cap: $2.54B

The Render Network, a decentralized platform for GPU-based rendering, is transforming digital content creation. By connecting GPU operators to creators, Render provides artists with scalable 3D rendering options while allowing node operators to monetize idle computing resources. This decentralized network supports high-speed, cost-effective rendering solutions, accommodating the growing demand in digital artistry and Web3 applications. Render’s peer-to-peer network enhances economic efficiency and creates an accessible platform for creative development.

ApeCoin(APE) Powers Community-Driven Governance 

Current price: $1.04

Market cap:$784.53M

ApeCoin is a utility token created to improve the APE ecosystem. Being an ERC-20 token, ApeCoin can vote in the ApeCoin DAO, which determines fund distribution within the ecosystem.  ApeCoin holders actively participate in proposals through the APE Foundation, forming a community-centered governance model. This structure empowers holders to influence the future of the ecosystem, focusing on the principles of decentralization within Web3.

MultiversX(EGLD) Horizontally Scalable Blockchain 

Current price:$24.10

Market cap:$662.94M

MultiversX, a high-performance blockchain protocol, addresses scalability with a sharding solution accommodating up to 100,000 transactions per second. This horizontal scalability framework enables efficient transactions at low costs, with the network’s native EGLD token providing a means for payment, staking, and governance. EGLD plays a central role, allowing users to deploy smart contracts and dApps on the platform. The network design allows for efficient development and boosts application in the DeFi and metaverse subsector.

Floki(FLOKI) Establishes Multi-Utility Ecosystem

Current price: $0.000147

Market cap: $1.41B

Floki, named after Elon Musk’s Shiba Inu dog backed up by the community, also establishes itself in various areas of use and utility. Its main project, the Valhalla NFT gaming metaverse, engages users with a digital experience rooted in the “Floki Viking” community identity. Under the "FlokiFi" brand, Floki offers DeFi products and a marketplace for NFTs and merchandise. These initiatives contribute to the project’s social engagement, as Floki remains a leading name on platforms like LunarCrush.
