Below are the five IOTA ecosystem projects that would benefit from the IOTA Grants Program.
1. ioLend
ioLend is a pioneering Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform dedicated to optimizing lending and liquidity. By aggregating yield opportunities across the network, ioLend enables users to maximize returns through various strategies. The platform features yield-bearing collaterals and advanced risk management methodologies, supporting diverse assets and integrating with Liquidity Pool markets to enhance Total Value Locked within the IOTA ecosystem.
2. Eco Forge Chronicles
Eco Forge Chronicles is an open-source trade-to-earn marketplace that boosts Web3 engagement using Eco-Bound Tokens (EBTs) and redeemable NFTs. The platform promotes ecosystem sustainability and user engagement by enabling projects to offer rewards that bind users to their ecosystems without depleting resources. It supports common NFT standards and allows for redeeming NFTs for digital goods, serving as a versatile and customizable marketplace template for ecosystem growth.
3. Protico
Protico is a DePIN-based social x data network that fosters social impact and profitability for users and brands. It introduces the “Web3 Lobby,” a universal community layer enabling brands to create native community spaces and connect with Web3 identities in a decentralized manner. Protico’s infrastructure is linked to a decentralized data storage network, ensuring GDPR-compliant user data.
4. Peppy
Peppy Finance aims to develop a “degen-themed” SYMMIO-integrated frontend tailored to retail users. Unlike the current SYMMIO frontends designed for professional traders, Peppy will offer a seamless and engaging experience by leveraging iGaming and online gaming design principles. This new UI aims to simplify the trading process, attract and retain retail users, and enhance their interaction with SYMMIO’s perpetual exchange infrastructure.
5. TokenLabs.Tools
TokenLabs.network is a no-code Web3 platform designed to democratize the creation and management of ERC20 tokens.
