‘Grandma friendly' DeFAI could bring blockchain finance to the masses.
In tech, new solutions can bring new problems. If a groundbreaking innovation is hard to use, more innovation will be needed to fix it.&nbsp;
That's where decentralized finance (DeFi) finds itself: ready to transform financial services but held back by jargon and fiddly processes that make it hard for newcomers to grasp.
Enter DeFAI, a mashup with agentic AI. This latest twist in the blockchain saga has the potential to cast-off DeFi's process-heavy chains and open it up to a wider audience.
Just tell a chatbot how to execute certain on-chain actions and it hands everything over to an AI agent, automating an often tricky and time-consuming series of technical steps. Anyone who's ever tried a new DeFi protocol for the first time will appreciate the potential benefits.
The current crop of DeFAI contenders wants to make handling crypto holdings easier for retail traders. Can they live up to the hype?
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">At a glance</h1>
<ul>
<li>Complexity, jargon, and an abundance of scams can be off-putting for DeFi newcomers</li>
<li>DeFAI – DeFi's integration with agentic AI –&nbsp;aims to change that. It allows users to run multi-step actions automatically using verbal commands</li>
<li>DeFAI can also strengthen security by minimizing input errors for common things like crypto wallet addresses</li>
<li>It could give retail traders more power to act on real-time market insights</li>
</ul>
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The dawn of frictionless DeFi</h1>
It's hard to overstate DeFi's impact on financial services. Instant loans, peer-to-peer trading, permissionless transactions, and straightforward forex exposure through platforms like Uniswap (UNI) and Aave (AAVE) have changed forever how money and markets intersect.
But — and it&#8217;s a big but— using DeFi can be painful. Even technically accomplished traders balk at the manual and glitchy onboarding processes behind wallet setup, managing gas fees, staking, and completing cross-chain transactions.
DeFAI deploys AI agents to do the tedious stuff, arguably removing another roadblock to adoption. According to crypto researcher <a href="https://x.com/Defi0xJeff">0xJeff</a>, harnessing AI in this way could be transformational: "Why spend hours digging for alpha, manually executing trades, and trying to optimize your portfolio when you could have an agent do it for you?
"Autonomous trading agents are taking the idea of trading bots to the next level, transforming them into dynamic companions that adapt, learn, and make smarter decisions over time."
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">DeFAI applications in action</h1>
DeFAI solutions are being created that enable users to interact with DeFi protocols verbally via natural language processing (NLP). For example, placing a trade order or launching a new meme coin can be executed by simply chatting with an AI agent, e.g. giving it a vocal prompt.
One example is <a href="https://griffain.com/">Griffain</a>. It allows users to automate common on-chain tasks like buying and selling cryptocurrencies, creating tokens, and following airdrops.
AI agents can also source information in real-time and execute commands automatically based on what they learn, allowing crypto traders to act faster and potentially gain a market advantage.
<a href="https://heyanon.ai/welcome">HeyAnon</a> applies the principle to social media. Users can apply its decentralized application (dApp) to collect and analyze data from various sources, such as X (formerly Twitter), Telegram, GitHub, and Discord. Based on pre-set conditions, it then executes DeFi interactions such as token swaps, staking, lending, and bridging.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The top DeFAI projects by market cap</h1>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. PAAL AI (PAAL)</h2>
PAAL AI enables users to build and deploy AI applications across various platforms such as Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, and Slack. AI agents currently on<a href="https://www.paal.ai/"> PAAL AI </a>include workflow management programs, autonomous trading solutions, meme-creating tools, and more.
The PAAL token exists on the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. aixbt by Virtuals (AIXBT)</h2>
<a href="https://app.virtuals.io/virtuals/1199">Aixbt</a> is the most valuable AI agent on Virtuals, an on-chain protocol that allows developers to create AI agents and co-own them with other users via crypto tokens. A token is minted whenever a new AI agent is created, which crypto users can buy to gain co-ownership and access.
Aixbt agents act as an analytics tool, tracking crypto-related discussions on X to detect market trends.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. ChainGPT (CGPT)</h2>
ChainGPT is a DeFAI token <a href="https://www.chaingpt.org/">operating </a>on the Binance Smart Chain and Ethereum networks. Users gain access to a suite of AI tools and applications including automated AI trading, blockchain analytics, and, smart contract creation.
The project aims to enhance the Web3 experience for retail users and startups. It uses a deflationary model with a burning mechanism to cap the overall supply at any given time.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Takeaway</h1>
In crypto, complexity is often the mother of invention. As of mid-January, DeFAI&#8217;s combined market cap surged by more than 350% in seven days, making it one of the most sought-after crypto investments in Q1.
Prices of the major DeFAI tokens have dropped in recent weeks, reflecting wider crypto market volatility and perhaps a wait-and-see attitude from investors.
Market watchers recognize DeFAI's potential to solve issues related to crypto user experience. How quickly users will flock to these solutions remains to be seen.

Prospective study to evaluate diagnostic performance and generate real-world data for the Mitomic&#xAE; Endometriosis Test, a potential non-invasive approach to surgical diagnosis for endometriosis
Aditxt, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADTX#NASDAQ">ADTX</a>) ("Aditxt" or the "Company"), a social innovation platform accelerating promising health innovations, today announced that its subsidiary, Pearsanta, Inc. ("Pearsanta"), has received Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval from WCG Clinical to initiate a prospective clinical study evaluating the Mitomic&#xAE; Endometriosis Test (MET), a novel blood-based diagnostic designed to aid in the early detection of endometriosis.
The study, "Mitochondrial DNA Deletions in Plasma as a Diagnostic Aid for Females Presenting with Symptoms of Endometriosis," is designed to evaluate the clinical performance of MET compared to laparoscopic diagnosis, which is currently the gold standard for confirming endometriosis. Patient enrollment is expected to begin in May 2025. The prospective study will enroll up to 1,000 participants who are referred for diagnostic laparoscopy. Each participant will complete a symptom questionnaire and provide a pre-operative blood sample.
"IRB approval is a major milestone in our path to validate a diagnostic tool that we believe addresses a critical gap in women's health," said Chris Mitton, President of Pearsanta. "This study will generate real-world data on the clinical performance of MET in a pre-surgical population, helping us evaluate its accuracy across symptom profiles and disease subtypes. By targeting mitochondrial DNA deletions, MET is designed as a non-invasive alternative to current surgical diagnostic approaches, potentially bringing us closer to delivering earlier, more accessible detection for patients affected by endometriosis."
Study objectives include:
<ul>
<li>Evaluating the sensitivity and specificity of the Mitomic&#xAE; Endometriosis Test in detecting endometriosis compared to laparoscopic diagnosis</li>
<li>Assessing test performance across various disease subtypes to understand its utility in different clinical presentations</li>
<li>Exploring correlations between MET results, symptom profiles and demographic variables to assess the feasibility of personalized diagnostic insights</li>
<li>Establishing a biobank of clinical samples to enable future research, biomarker discovery and product development initiatives</li>
</ul>
"Endometriosis is an example of how early disease detection represents one of the most significant gaps in healthcare, with millions affected," said Amro Albanna, CEO of Aditxt. "This approval reflects Aditxt's commitment to addressing some of the most pressing health challenges through our subsidiaries and their programs."
Endometriosis affects an estimated 1 in 10 women globally, yet diagnosis can take 7 to 10 years on average due to the invasive nature of laparoscopy and lack of accurate, non-invasive tests. This diagnostic delay can lead to chronic pain, infertility and irreversible organ damage. Pearsanta's MET leverages its proprietary Mitomic&#xAE; Technology, which utilizes mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) biomarkers to detect molecular signatures associated with disease, potentially enabling earlier detection through a simple blood draw.
The study is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT06907550. Results from this clinical trial are intended to support the launch of MET as a Laboratory Developed Test (LDT) within Pearsanta's CLIA/CAP-certified laboratory in Richmond, Virginia.

VALE S.A. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VALE#NYSE">VALE</a>) reported the first-quarter FY25 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mining" rel="noreferrer noopener">production and sales performance</a> on Tuesday.
The company clocked iron ore production of 67.7 million tonnes (Mt), which was down 4.5% year over year (Y/Y), with production in the Northern System constrained by heavy rainfall.
Pellet production declined 15% Y/Y to 7.2 Mt primarily due to reduced availability of pellet feed in the quarter.

In the first quarter, Vale's iron ore sales increased 3.6% Y/Y to 66.1 million tonnes, aided by the sale of advanced inventories built-up in previous quarters.
The average realized price for iron ore fines was $90.8 per tonne (-9.8% Y/Y), primarily due to lower premium levels.
Similarly, the average pellet price declined 18.1% year over year to $140.8 per tonne, reflecting weaker contractual premiums during the quarter.
Meanwhile, Iron ore sales increased 4% year over year to 66.1 Mt, driven by an agile supply chain and strategic use of inventories.
Also, Copper production rose 11% Y/Y to 90.9 kt, with a strong performance from Salobo, Sossego, and Voisey's Bay thanks to the Salobo 3 and Voisey's Bay underground expansions.
Additionally, Nickel production surged 11% year over year to 43.9 kt, led by increased production at Onça Puma and solid results from Canadian operations, further enhanced by VBME's progress.
In February, Vale reported fourth-quarter net operating revenue decline of 22% Y/Y to $10.124 billion, beating&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43858670/vale-q4-lower-iron-ore-prices-weigh-on-earnings-approves-198-billion-in-dividends-interest-on-capital-renewed-buyback-program" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $10.117 billion</a>.
