Original Article Title: "AI Agent Rising Star Swarms 7x in a Week, What Other Promising Projects Are There in the Ecosystem?"
Original Article Author: Golem, Odaily Planet Daily
In the first week of 2025, the AI Agent track continued its rapid rise, with the two major ecosystems ai16z and Virtual token market caps surpassing $20 billion and $50 billion, respectively, reaching historic highs.
AI innovation is still emerging. Just when people thought the "factional struggle" of AI Agent infrastructure was settled, with all AI agents needing to "pay homage" in these two major ecosystems, a dark horse—Swarms—broke through. In the past week, the Swarms token has surged by over 768%, with a peak market cap of $4.4 billion; currently, Swarms has over 2800 stars on GitHub.
Swarms is a multi-agent collaboration framework that focuses on providing a "framework" as a core component, as well as features such as long-term memory and task decomposition, to help multiple AI agents seamlessly collaborate in the same network to break down and process complex tasks. As Swarms continues to advance ecosystem project development, with the richness of the multi-agent collaboration ecosystem, the early-stage Swarms ecosystem may still hold Alpha opportunities. Odaily Planet Daily will briefly introduce Swarms ecosystem projects and the progress of Swarms itself.
Ecosystem Project Introduction
MCS
Market Cap: $25 million
Number of Holders: 3889
Token Contract: ALHFgnXSenUv17GMdf3dL9gtFW2KKQTz9avpM2Wypump
MCS was created by Swarms founder Kye Gomez, and Kye has already added the official MCS Twitter link to his own profile, giving it an official endorsement. MCS is a production-grade multi-agent system built on Swarms for medical diagnosis and coding, allowing users to receive free diagnosis and analysis of medical and healthcare-related issues through interaction with MCS. According to data disclosed by Kye Gomez, MCS has had over 6000 daily active users in the past 2 days, and its API is set to be deployed for one of the largest healthcare providers in the United States.

SPORES
Market Cap: $9.4 Million
Holder Address: 5347
Token Contract: H1koD28XAHg2vuGp7XggehBCR4zP6r6k6EQ3MR6j3kU2
Spores is a token issued by Autonomous Spores, with 10% of the token being transferred to the swarms DAO. The Autonomous Spores project plans to develop four AI agents based on the Swarms framework:
· The first agent is Saya, an AI fund manager built on Swarms Intelligence, which will manage a series of AI agent hedge funds. It has honed its decision-making abilities through vast amounts of trading data in the trading system, and the first fund is set to launch soon;
· The second agent is Oozeborn, inspired by Clanker on Base, which simplifies users' initiation of tokens and creation of AI agents on Twitter by commenting or using the #Oozeborn tag in posts;
· The third agent, Grassian, is a data analysis AI agent built on the Swarms algorithm, focusing primarily on identifying early Alpha bloggers on Twitter and rating these individuals to provide insights into the ecosystem. Grassian also serves as a key source of information for Saya in making trading decisions.
· The fourth agent, Jaguarundi, is a risk assessment AI agent that evaluates risks in the trading system to provide security for Saya. It also runs an insurance fund aimed at mitigating overall trading system losses.
Autonomous Spores harnesses the collective intelligence of these four AI agents through collaboration. Currently, Autonomous Spores has plans to share some of the management fees generated by Saya and the transaction taxes generated by Oozeborn with the community. However, Grassian and Jaguarundi have not yet been launched.

CREATE
Market Cap: $8.8 Million
Holder Address: 4528
Token Contract: 92crE7qiX5T7VtiXhCeagfo1E81UtyguiXM7qCi7pump
create claims to be the ultimate creation engine, but it is actually an AI platform built on Swarm that generates images or audio based on text prompts.

IFSCI
Market Cap: $3.5 Million
Holder Address: 1177
Token Contract: RqGHXg2eh3zPjyzNM7kUyrrSmhb9M9q4mCKFH1mpump
IFSCI claims to be the first vertical AI x DeSci Agent project built on Swarms, aiming to help users personalize their fasting and dietary plans. Users can participate in the AI as food data contributors, health metric providers, or researchers. As a data contributor, users simply need to post their meal photos and corresponding descriptions to the X platform and tag @adesciagent. Users will also be rewarded based on their contributions.
According to the official roadmap, IFSCI is set to launch a fully-featured application in Q3 2025 and expand scientific research globally.

Swarms Ecosystem Development Progress
Today's thriving AI Agent framework projects resemble the early days of Ethereum L2's prosperity. Although the technologies and models differ, the most straightforward way for users to judge their quality is to look at ecosystem prosperity. As a multi-agent collaboration framework, Swarms, to some extent, relies more on a thriving agent ecosystem to "validate" its own value. Compared to ecosystems like ai16z and Virtuals, although Swarms started later, it is currently focusing on ecosystem development.
Today, the Swarms official account posted on the X platform to recruit ecosystem project collaborations, offering technical, marketing, and agent infrastructure support. Additionally, they allocated 10 million Swarms tokens (valued at $3.38 million) as an ecosystem fund. Swarms founder Kye Gomez also stated that he will "personally meet and support all our partner projects, providing technical assistance, marketing guidance, and more."
Kye Gomez also announced today that swarms Marketplace is set to launch new features, including:
· Auto-generate and upload: Seamlessly create agents, tools, and swarms, then upload them directly to the marketplace;
· Paywall integration: Monetize by listing agents at a certain price for others to purchase developer creations;
· swarms Token Integration: Use Phantom to buy and sell agents with swarms tokens, streamlining transactions;
· swarms Auto-Cloud: Launch Swarm API in the cloud with just one prompt;
· Agent Quality Incentives: Earn swarms tokens by releasing high-quality agents, evaluated using advanced frameworks;
· Real-time Chat and API: Provide real-time interaction and API capabilities for each agent, swarm, tool, and prompt;
· Usage Tracking: Monitor real-time agent usage with detailed tracking tools.
While there is still controversy surrounding the originality of Swarms, unwavering development is the best response to controversy. Early on, ai16z was also accused of being a coin issuance conspiracy group, but its current market value has proven its market recognition. "Either continue to soar or decline from now on," whether Swarms can "wrist wrestle" with ai16z in ecosystem development remains to be seen over time.
