A look at 12 Solana AI hackathon ideas
Original author: SEND AI
Original translation: Ismay, BlockBeats
Editor's note: On December 11, Solana announced the launch of the first Solana AI hackathon, which aims to build AI agents and tools on Solana. The prizes range from US$5,000 to US$30,000, and are intended to encourage serious Crypto x AI projects that can attract venture capital or launch their own tokens. This article is a list of twelve entrepreneurial directions for AI proposed by SEND AI, an AI project in the Solana ecosystem
1/ Agent's Shopify platform:
Problem: Agents are like applications. Just like the early stages of applications, Agents are currently fragmented and face discoverability issues.
Solution: Create an App Store for AI Agents:
–– Agents are mini apps.
–– Users can discover, install, and use these mini apps just like Shopify.

2/ Twitch Platform for AI Agents:
Problem: The rise of influencer agents requires a dedicated platform.
Solution: Create a dedicated streaming platform for AI activities:
–– Integrated AI moderators
–– Agents can directly launch or promote tokens
–– Viewers can directly buy and sell tokens based on interactions

Idea: Twitch for AI Agent: A streaming platform built specifically for AI activities and interactions, with integrated AI modules (an emergency protocol for immediate response to censorship), where agents can directly launch and promote tokens, and viewers can buy and sell based on interactions.
3/ Enhanced Agent Filters:
Problem: Traditional filters only support read-only functions.
Solution: Imagine a MEME coin screener (similar to @birdeye_so) where you can screen tokens and input metrics - then an AI Agent autonomously executes trades based on the selected strategy.

Idea: A screener designed for on-chain trading bots that allows quantitative traders to develop and optimize strategies using tailored on-chain metrics, specifically for decentralized ecosystems. Unlike traditional technical indicators such as moving averages, P/E ratios, or market capitalization, the platform leverages blockchain-specific data points such as FDV, Raydium pool creation, token liquidity, trading volume, and staking rewards. Users can quickly screen and filter tokens based on these on-chain metrics to identify high-potential assets. Ultimately, the platform simplifies the process of applying these conditions to on-chain trading bots, which can autonomously execute trades based on the selected strategy.
4/ Autonomous Trading Agent:
Problem: @aixbt_agent’s research is very solid, but it does not execute autonomous trades.
Solution: Imagine Aixbt, with the ability to execute autonomous trades based on real-time research/prices, using a funding account (with AUM that users can invest and withdraw).
Example: BabyDegen is an autonomous AI trading bot that uses advanced models and real-time data to make smart trading decisions. It collects market insights from sources like CoinGecko to ensure the timeliness of information. With access to a growing library of trading strategies from ecosystem developers, BabyDegen is able to select the most effective strategy based on market changes. It executes trades based on analysis and experience—buy, sell, or hold assets to optimize trading results.
5/ AI Agent-driven Telegram prediction market:
Problem: Betting with friends is fun, but setting up bets, collecting payments, and following up are cumbersome.
Solution: AI Agent turns small talk in Telegram groups into friendly bets, verifies the results (via Perplexity), and pays out USDC.

6/ Perplexity for Solana Operations:
Imagine a chat agent with an embedded wallet:
– Read: Act as a proxy for a Solana block explorer or terminal, such as Birdeye/Dexscreener.
– Write: Perform Solana transactions (e.g. buy MEME coins) using natural language.
Future Development: On-chain shopping assistant.

7/ Trust Market for Trading Agents:
Problem: The rise of trading agents requires proof of their trustworthiness.
Solution: Build a trust score or framework for trading agents (similar to Moody's ratings) to assess trust based on token recommendations and historical trading activity.
8/ DeFi Agent:
–– Personalized Agent: Execute DeFi trades for you based on your wallet history or tweets.
–– Market Making Agent: Dynamically set buy/sell prices based on Large Language Model (LLM) predictions.
–– Yield or Liquidity Provision (LP) Optimizing Agent.
–– Launching @sanctumso’s LSTs (Liquidity Proof Tokens).
9/ Agent Token Tools:
–– Deploy tokens based on prompts (can be social protocols like Warpcast/Clanker or ChatGPT-style interfaces).
–– On-chain registration of Agent tokens (similar to @JupiterExchange’s certified token list).
–– Autonomous lock-up, staking, etc.
10/ AI Agents and Consumer Crypto:
–– Health and fitness agents with @moonwalkfitness type accountability tracking.
–– Agents on social finance platforms, such as @tribedotrun.
–– Real World Commerce: Automatically research, book, and pay merchants, accept cryptocurrencies or pay via crypto cards.
11/ Agent Clusters or Multi-Agent Collaboration:
–– AgentDAO or Committee: Agents with different expertise collaborate, discuss, and execute transactions via multi-signature.
–– DeFiAgent-to-Agent Marketplace: Agents hire each other for specific tasks.
Related: LinkedIn for AI Agents.
12/ Multimodal personalized agent:
Use @ai16zdao’s Eliza framework and apply it to the following scenarios:
–– Cryptocurrency education
–– DeFi tutorial
–– DAO onboarding
Deployable on Discord, Telegram, and Twitter platforms.
13/ More radical ideas:
–– An agent creates its own LLC in an agent-friendly jurisdiction and operates its own business autonomously.
–– An on-chain detective, similar to @zachxbt, automatically analyzes transactions.
–– A group of agents collaborate to manipulate tokens to rise.
14/ In general, any AI Agent idea can be applied as long as it includes one or more of the following:
–– Access @solana data
–– Perform transactions via Solana wallet
–– Deploy tokens on Solana
These are just some of the ideas, and we look forward to seeing the implementation of minimum viable products (MVPs).

Foreign selling in the South Korean stock market accelerates, with cumulative net sales reportedly reaching $75 billion this year
On June 9, The Kobeissi Letter, citing Goldman Sachs data, reported that global investors are selling South Korean stocks at an unusually rapid pace. In the latest trading session, foreign investors sold about $801 million worth of Kospi constituent stocks again; total foreign outflows last week reached about $10 billion, and the market has been in net foreign selling on nearly every trading day over the past month. According to the data cited in the report, foreign investors have sold about $75 billion worth of South Korean stocks so far this year. Meanwhile, South Korean retail and institutional investors together recorded roughly $69 billion in net buying over the same period, suggesting that the market’s main buying support has come from domestic capital rather than returning overseas funds. The information currently disclosed still mainly comes from The Kobeissi Letter’s retelling and Goldman Sachs data summaries, while public details on the statistical period and the specific definition of “selling” remain relatively limited.

Scaling Crypto Derivatives: The Digital Asset Infrastructure Behind High-Volume Trading
In the fast-moving digital asset ecosystem, derivatives platforms face an extreme architectural test. High-leverage futures markets demand more than just standard security—they require absolute operational precision, zero-latency matching engines, and ironclad structural scalability, all while navigating intense market volatility.
As global platforms scale to meet these demands, the industry is shifting away from rigid, monolithic setups toward a more agile, "decoupled" infrastructure philosophy.
The Blueprint for High-Volume Copy TradingFor elite global exchanges like WEEX (founded in 2018), this architectural choice becomes critical when scaling high-volume retail features like social copy trading. When thousands of users automatically mirror the real-time strategies of elite traders simultaneously, it triggers sudden, monumental spikes in concurrent transactional volume.
To prevent execution latency or settlement bottlenecks during these peak volatility events, a platform's primary engine must remain entirely dedicated to risk management, copy-trade synchronization, and order matching.
The Architectural Rule: New-generation platforms must separate front-end user execution engines from heavy backend infrastructural overhead to eliminate operational friction.
By separating these layers, platforms can maintain complete sovereignty over their trading environments and user experiences while strategically aligning with institutional-grade infrastructure ecosystems. This strategic framework allows modern exchanges to leverage advanced Digital Asset Custody infrastructure such as Cobo’s behind the scenes, ensuring that backend wallet management scales elastically alongside trading spikes.
Capitalizing on Market Momentum and 400× LeverageIn a derivatives arena where platforms offer up to 400× leverage on perpetual contracts, capital efficiency and market agility are core business metrics. To capture market momentum, an exchange needs the ability to rapidly expand its asset offerings, supporting everything from legacy crypto assets to sudden, trending altcoins across a massive library of trading pairs.
Adopting a flexible, scalable Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) solution such as Cobo’s could completely rewrite the development timeline for high-growth exchanges. Instead of spending months of engineering capital building out custom backend wallet architectures for every new blockchain network, platforms can deploy localized infrastructure in days.
This agility allows platforms to instantly scale their listings to over a thousand trading pairs without compromising security or delaying time-to-market. It mirrors the exact operational advantages seen during high-velocity market events, similar to how advanced wallet infrastructure empowers platforms during sudden asset surges; allowing exchanges to pass that speed and liquidity directly to their global user base.
A Mature Foundation for GrowthThe synergy between trusted infrastructure ecosystems and global trading platforms represents the natural evolution of a maturing crypto market. As WEEX continues to scale its global spot and derivatives offerings for over 6 million users, adopting robust backend paradigms proves that platforms no longer have to compromise between cutting-edge trading velocity and uncompromised structural security.
