Top 5 Desci Ecosystem Tokens To Watch Below 2M Market Cap In July 2025
4 min read
The “DeSci” movement (Decentralized Science) strives to transform the scientific and research infrastructure by leveraging blockchain’s transparency, decentralization, and incentive systems. DeSci tokens fund research, reward contributions, foster open access data, and enable scientific work to be community-governed. Many emerging projects are building on these principles, often with small market capitalizations under $2M—offering significant upside but also high risk due to low liquidity and development stage. Note: This list is sorted in no particular order. All data and information gotten from CoinMarketCap. Cerebrum DAO (NEURON) NEURON supports a research DAO centered on neuroscience and AI, funding, and rewarding contributions in cognitive science. The human brain has 86 billion neurons, and Cerebrum DAO will have 86 billion NEURON tokens available. In addition to governance over Cerebrum DAO, the NEURON token provides its holders with other valuable utility, including (a) the potential early access to brain health consumer and successful therapeutics sourced or developed by Cerebrum DAO and (b) the opportunity to participate in determining purchase rights for IPTs offered from Cerebrum DAO’s IP-NFT projects. Price: ~$0.000106 24‑h Volume: Typically low/zero to minimal—ranges up to ~$1,400 Market Cap: ~$1.3 million Exchanges: Listed on uniswap v3 With over 86B max supply, NEURON appears widely held but lightly traded—cap under $2M places it clearly in early incubation with speculative appeal. Etica (ETI) Etica funds open-access science across multiple disciplines—providing incentives, grants, and decentralized governance for research outputs. Etica is a Desci (Decentralised Science) project. It is a blockchain for Open Source medical research without intellectual property. ETI is the cypto-currency that is used for: Financing open source research Reward researchers for their open source contributions Used for voting on network proposals and get voting rewards It allows ETI holders to orient and guide research done on Etica Protocol Store of value: ETI supply will be limited by a fixed inflation of about 1% per year and it can become a store of value Unit Price: ~$0.028 24‑h Volume: ~$104k Market Cap: ~$185,000 (circulating ~5.6 million ETI) Exchanges for active trading: Traded on Xt.com With sub‑$200K cap, Etica is extremely small-scale—offering high potential rewards but significant volatility and dependency on ecosystem uptake. SUI Desci Agents (DESCI) DESCI is tailored to support scientific projects on the Sui blockchain , enabling decentralized research funding and contributor coordination. Unit Price: ~$0.00079 24‑h Volume: ~$250,000 Market Cap: ~$717,000 Exchanges: Tradable on MexC, Gate.io exchange, Uniswap v2 This token under $1M cap property is attracting activity but remains early-stage—its Sui integration makes it niche but strategically positioned in DeSci. Nuco.cloud (NCDT) NCDT powers nuco.cloud, a decentralized computing project underpinned by BOINC federation. It is positioned as a cost-effective, scalable alternative for scientific computation. The nuco.cloud API is now live, and it changes how you deploy GPU infrastructure. Spin up GPU instances Stop, reboot, or cancel them See real-time availability Track your credit balance Pay in crypto if you want speed & savings No UI. No noise. Just fast, programmatic access to GPU power made for devs, ML engineers, and builders who want full control. Unit price: ~$0.034 24‑h Volume: ~$184,000 Market Cap: ~$1.72M Exchanges: Listed on MEXC, Uniswap V2, WhiteBIT. With a capped supply of 50 million NCDT and broad exchange availability, Nuco.cloud presents modest scale but a clear real‑world application in decentralized scientific computing. Urolithin A (URO) Urolithin A is a DeSci token aimed at funding and incentivizing collaborative health and longevity research. It supports open scientific contribution via blockchain-backed grants and rewards. $URO token represents longevity experiments performed with the compound Urolithin A. These experiments are live-streamed on Pump Science. What is Pump Science? Pump Science is a gamified longevity research platform. Users can speculate on life-extending compounds, stream live experiment data, and submit your own longevity cocktails for testing on model organisms. Unit Price: ~ $0.00178 24‑h Volume: ~$2.84 million Market Cap: ~$1.78 million Exchanges: Available on major platforms including Gate.io, MEXC, and CoinMarketCap-listed pairs; it’s also supported on decentralized exchanges. This token is near full circulation (~1 billion URO total supply), trading actively, and offers visibility within the DeSci landscape—though its small market cap signals early-stage risk and rapid fluctuations. These five DeSci tokens all hover below a $2M—fulfilling the “under 2M” criterion. They’re distinguished by niche use cases: open research funding (URO, ETI), decentralized scientific computing (NCDT), blockchain-based science agents (DESCI), and neuroscience/AI DAO structuring (NEURON). Risks are substantial given low liquidity, volatile price action, and dependency on platform growth. However, their small cap and evolving ecosystems offer potentially outsized upside for early speculators committed to the ethos of scientific decentralization.
