The evolution trajectory of social protocols is becoming increasingly clear. From 2022 to 2023, there was an exploration of social oracles, attempting to connect social media platforms like X with social public chains/DA layers; then from 2023 to 2024, the focus shifted to building fully decentralized social distribution systems compatible with EVM. By 2024-2025, community issuance asset mechanisms were introduced, using Bonding Curves to solve the initial liquidity fundraising challenges. Currently, in the 2025-2026 window, financial functions such as social prediction markets, social trading/payment, and social tokens are beginning to be integrated. Looking ahead to 2026-2027, AI and community-driven Web3 mini-program centers have become the main direction for the next phase—this architectural logic from connection layer → distribution layer → asset layer → financial layer → application layer is continuously strengthening the ecosystem foundation.

The bonding curve approach really solved a lot of liquidity issues, but now everyone is competing in the financial layer functions... It feels like the AI mini-programs in 2026 are the real killing apps.

The bonding curve approach has really been overused. Now every new project copies it. The problem is, liquidity really can't be retained.

Another grand narrative, but how many can actually be implemented successfully?

Haha, bonding curve is still a bit of mysticism. Can liquidity issues really be solved so simply?
