DeSci tokens offer asymmetric upside from a low base as the sector quietly builds tools that could compound if scientific results materialize onchain. The core category is worth only about $346M, and the narrative is resurfacing in 2026 on longevity, peptide and GLP-1 trends plus AI research agents. BIO Protocol, often the top token by volume at about $65M, is building AI-powered BioDAOs and PeptAI for peptide discovery. Pumps are likely to be news-driven, not organic mega-rallies. x.com
