By 2025, 90% of web3 social protocols had ceased operations, including the once-mighty Lens protocol, and the biggest problem for socifi is the lack of self-sustaining ability and profitability.
Since the social experience has been taken to the extreme in web2, social interactions in web3 without services and solely relying on selling tokens and NFTs will quickly be eliminated.
Let's see how Port3, which has already launched on Binance Alpha, is doing
How Port3 can generate revenue for its protocol
Protocol fees and data API services
Port3 is essentially a Web3 data protocol provider, and its data services have long-term value. Through products such as:
OpenBQL: On-chain social data query interface for developers;
S3 Graph: On-chain social graph that can be integrated into various applications;
Rankit Oracle: provides real-time influence scoring data for DeFi, AI Agent, GameFi applications;
Port3 can charge API call fees or data subscription fees for DApps or platforms that use these services, which is the most core and sustainable revenue source.
Project cooperation and white-label solutions
Port3 supports project parties in creating customized tasks through SoQuest to incentivize users to complete specified interaction behaviors. Here:
Project direction Port3 payment service fee;
Port3 provides complete solutions for user filtering, Bot protection, data analysis, etc.;
Can provide white-label services (independent deployment of UI, task systems, etc.);
This part has been validated on multiple chains (BNB, Polygon, Arbitrum) and belongs to typical 'B2B charging.'
Port3 aims to become the on-chain brain of AI Agents
In the trend of the integration of AI + Web3, the 'data layer' is becoming crucial. Port3 is trying to become a key piece in this field.
In April 2025, Port3 launched a new product Rankit—a blockchain-based Oracle service that integrates an AI-driven social scoring mechanism, assessing users' on-chain behavior, influence, interaction frequency in real time, and serving multiple application scenarios on BNB Chain:
DeFi staking incentive stratification
AI Agent precise guidance behavior
Predictive market reputation assessment
It can be anticipated that Port3 is beginning to transform into an AI-friendly Web3 infrastructure, fully entering the AI field.
Potential investment opportunities
Port3 gathers projects from various fields such as #AI #社交 #数据分析 and has strong product delivery capabilities.
Port3's current market value is only about $20 million, which seems exceptionally 'undervalued' compared to other AI + Social projects in the same field that generally exceed $100 million in valuation.
Since fully migrating to BNB Chain at the beginning of 2025, Port3's core metrics such as trading volume, liquidity, and active addresses have grown rapidly;
After listing on Binance Alpha, the potential user base has expanded significantly.
Buying price range: $0.028 ~ $0.034 (current reasonable low absorption area)
Target selling price range: $0.06 ~ $0.07
Expected profit margin range for the first phase: +76% to +150%
Market value enhancement expectations: Currently about $20M, target range $60M ~ $80M, reaching $100M is not a big issue
