Thru is a next-generation Layer 1 blockchain developed by Unto Labs with a focus on performance and user experience. Its smart contract runtime, the ThruVM, meticulously implements the open RISC-V specification. ThruVM works out of the box with the existing Rust, C, C++ compilers and any language that already supports RISC-V.

Embr.fun is built by Embr Labs and developed with support from the Initia Interwoven Stack.

FastLane Protocol is a hybrid MEV protocol designed to reduce transaction spam and improve network health. It monetizes propagation bottlenecks in the peer-to-peer layer of the Polygon blockchain and distributes the proceeds to participating validators.

Sorella Labs is developing tools to tackle Ethereum's maximum extractable value issue. To help prevent such MEV losses, Sorella Labs is working on two tools: Brontes and Angstrom. Brontes is an open-source blockchain analytics tool that processes Ethereum blocks, classifies transaction actions and identifies MEV through pattern matching and analysis.

MetaDAO is a Solana ecosystem governance project that aims to establish a governance structure that relies on market forces rather than voting. This structure is called a "futures market."

Kuru is a fully on-chain order book DEX on Monad, providing users with a single platform to find, research and trade spot assets on-chain.

Succinct is building a decentralized prover network so that anyone can build blockchain applications and infrastructure secured by cryptographic truth, not trust. Succinct unifies the proof supply chain, providing highly available proof generation infrastructure with best-in-class pricing, for rollups, coprocessors and other applications using zero-knowledge proofs.
