December brings renewed energy to the crypto landscape as infrastructure projects, AI-driven networks, Web3 onboarding protocols, gaming platforms, and trading tools gain investor attention. Mono Protocol, Nexchain, WeWake, Tapzi, and Snorter have emerged as the most actively followed projects this month, each supported by strong fundamentals, transparent development progress, and structured funding rounds.
Below is a detailed look at five projects gaining the most traction across the Web3 ecosystem.
1. Mono Protocol – Unified Cross-Chain Layer Advancing Web3 Execution
Mono Protocol remains one of the most tracked projects of December as Stage 19 nears full completion. The project has raised $3.71 million out of the $3.80 million target, with the token price set at $0.0550.
Mono is developing a unified execution layer that replaces fragmented multi-chain processes with a single environment for routing, balances, and settlement. Its unified balance system—one balance per token across all supported chains—removes bridges, network switches, and redundant approvals. This simplification is a major factor behind Mono’s visibility across research lists.
The protocol’s automated routing engine evaluates real-time network conditions to select the best path during execution, helping eliminate failed transactions, especially during periods of high activity. Combined with its modular design and cross-chain architecture, Mono continues to draw interest from users exploring infrastructure-focused cryptocurrency projects.
The team has also expanded its Rewards Hub, adding quests, referrals, and participation missions to maintain community engagement throughout the raise. With routine development updates and a transparent funding structure, Mono Protocol remains a leading contender among crypto projects closing out the year.
2. Nexchain – AI-Driven Layer-1 With High Throughput and Active Testnet
Nexchain continues to gain significant traction due to its hybrid AI-driven consensus model and high-performance architecture targeting up to 400,000 TPS. Stage 29 is live at a token price of $0.116, with $12,278,421 raised out of the $12,975,000 target. The projected 259% ROI at listing ($0.30) keeps Nexchain among the highest-margin opportunities in the current crypto cycle.
The launch of TESTNET 2.0 has boosted visibility across Web3 communities. The testnet now includes:
- Wallet reputation scoring
- Contract behavior identification
- Real-time risk tagging
- Developer-level transparency tools
These enhancements support Nexchain’s positioning as an AI-integrated Layer-1 built for advanced applications and institutional-grade scaling. As users look for structured and technically backed crypto projects, Nexchain’s combination of data-driven development and strong fundraising continues to attract early participants.
3. WeWake – Web3 Onboarding Through Gasless and Walletless Access
WeWake targets one of Web3’s most persistent challenges: onboarding. The platform removes seed phrases and wallet setup entirely, allowing users to log in through Google, Apple, or Telegram. This approach places WeWake at the center of discussions around bringing mainstream users into blockchain ecosystems.
Stage 17 is live at $0.0340, with $1,493,885.78 raised out of the $2,210,000 target. The listing price of $0.15 presents an estimated 441% ROI, one of the highest margins among active crypto projects.
WeWake also supports gasless transactions through an internal fee abstraction system. This allows users to interact with decentralized apps without paying separate gas fees, reinforcing a Web2-like experience. As more developers explore L2 networks optimized for user experience, WeWake remains a prominent candidate for onboarding solutions that reduce friction and expand adoption.
4. Tapzi – The World’s First Skill-Based, Decentralized Web3 Gaming Platform
Tapzi is building a fully decentralized skill-gaming ecosystem designed for more than 1.5 billion mobile gamers. It removes randomness, bots, and traditional matchmaking complexity, offering pure skill-based PvP gaming powered by the $TAPZI token.
The platform uses on-chain transparency and a hybrid engine that blends off-chain speed with on-chain verification. Matches are gasless, fast, and cheat-proof, with results stored verifiably on the BNB Smart Chain. This architecture appeals to developers and players seeking competitive fairness.
Tapzi provides SDKs and one-click APIs to support game creators who want to deploy skill-based titles without handling blockchain complexities. The broader ecosystem includes staking rewards, tournaments, governance opportunities, liquidity pools, and launchpad exposure for developers.
With a total supply of 5 billion tokens, audited tokenomics, and KYC compliance, Tapzi continues to stand out among gaming-focused crypto projects heading into 2025.
5. Snorter Token – A Solana Trading Bot With MEV-Resistant Routing
Snorter combines meme culture with utility by offering an aardvark-themed Solana trading bot equipped with advanced automation features. The bot is fully Telegram-based, giving users simple access to swaps, automated sniping, copy trading, and early detection tools for rug pulls and honeypots.
The Snorter bot routes transactions through a custom RPC cluster with MEV-resistant relayers, designed for faster and safer execution than standard retail tools. The $SNORT token launches on both Solana (SPL) and Ethereum (ERC-20), providing dual-chain exposure from the start.
The project supports payments in SOL, ETH, USDT, and USDC, and the staking rewards system inside Best Wallet has increased demand among early participants. With a total supply of 500 million tokens, Snorter continues attracting users seeking practical tools within the Solana ecosystem.
