Odaily’s Oct. 10 roundup highlighted three crypto interaction opportunities tied to Catalyst, RocX, and SmartX. Catalyst, an AI trading agent platform built for retail investors, said users can describe investment ideas and market views in natural language, after which its AI agents research information, build strategies, run backtests, monitor signals, and execute trades with user approval. The project also announced a $30 million seed round on Oct. 8 led by Sequoia Capital, with participation from Jump Trading, PeakXV, Lux Capital, AntiFund, Coinbase, and Premji Invest. RocX, a DeFi platform built around Proof of Activity, said on Oct. 5 that its testnet is now live. Users can claim Base Sepolia testnet ETH, connect a wallet, bind an X account, check in daily for 100 points per check-in, and deposit testnet ETH through the platform. SmartX, described as a personalized social trading app covering meme assets, perpetual futures, stocks, and prediction markets, has opened the second round of its waitlist. The project was also listed among the 24 early-stage companies selected for YZi Labs’ EASY Residency Season 4, with each selected company receiving a $500,000 investment. SmartX said waitlist rankings depend on both join time and Boost, with referrals increasing Boost.
