Hey Anon
Hey Anon uses Artificial Intelligence to help users perform and manage DeFi tasks through natural language commands. The platform allows users to bridge, swap, stake, and borrow assets and to receive updates on project activity, price changes, and market sentiment.
The tool collects and merges data from platforms like Twitter, Telegram, Discord, GitHub, and Gitbook. This integration provides a full view of different blockchain protocols for users. “Sonic is the DeFi chain. Hey Anon brings DeFAI (DeFi + AI) to Sonic, redefining the user experience of interacting with on-chain protocols via natural language…” said Daniele Sesta, Founder of Hey Anon.
By translating complex DeFi activities into easy conversations, Hey Anon aims to simplify user experiences and reduce barriers to blockchain participation.
Sonic Labs confirmed plans to continue investing in projects that develop new tools or infrastructure for the Sonic ecosystem. The fund is open to proposals from teams working on AI-driven protocols, cross-chain solutions, or novel DeFi technologies.
