Three sub-$1M Solana projects that pass the Mycelium filters, and where each one breaks

AI-created for a @myceliumfinance bounty.

The Mycelium Strategy pairs $MYC liquidity directly with selected Solana projects. Every swap through a connected pool pays a 0.5% to 2.5% fee to its liquidity providers, and Mycelium earns its share.

The strategy is only as good as the projects it connects to: a working product with real volume feeds the flywheel, a dead one just parks capital. I started from the filter list, screened the sub-$1M band, and kept three.

The selection criteria, and how each pick meets them

  • On Solana. All three are SPL tokens; the mints below are verifiable on any RPC.
  • Circulating market cap below $1M. Read from DexScreener at 2026-10-24T09:47Z. FDV equals market cap for all three, because DexScreener reads their full post-burn supply as circulating.
  • A working product people can use today. Each has a live site returning HTTP 200 today; evidence per project below.
  • Not a meme token. Each ships software. Playful branding is not disqualifying; having no product would be.
  • Trading for at least 60 days. Measured from the earliest pairCreatedAt on DexScreener.
  • At least $10,000 of 24h volume. Summed across all Solana pairs, not just the largest.
  • At least $50,000 of DEX liquidity, no double counting. Summed per distinct pool.
  • Activity within the last 30 days. Dated evidence below, all inside this week.
  • Not already in the strategy. Read from Mycelium's allocation endpoint at 2026-10-24T09:46:27Z, which lists KNOTS, PRCL, GABLE, SOL, KINS, DREAMS, GUAC, STREAM, JUBJUB and USDC.
  • Not SOL, USDC, USDT, MYC or ESF.

EKOS

EKOS compiles source code, SQL, ETL jobs, Git history and docs into an evidence-backed knowledge ledger that AI agents query over MCP: every answer cites the artifact it came from, and ekos.dev serves it today.

Activity is the strongest of the three. The repository was pushed at 2026-10-24T09:17Z, about half an hour before this snapshot, and the tokenomics page is stamped "Snapshot as of October 24, 2026". That page records the first buyback-and-burn today: 501,000 EKOS bought on the open market and burned from the founder wallet, against 33,124,716 burned over the token's life and a supply now 966,875,284.

Utility is documented on that page: $EKOS rewards and coordinates contributors and is explicitly not a claim on the project. 18,000,000 EKOS sit in Streamflow contracts, 14,000,000 founder vesting and 4,000,000 a lock running to 2027-07-27, about 15,666,700 still time-locked. Those are the project's published figures, not verified on-chain.

Main risk. Concentration and a single exit. Excluding the one pump.fun pool account, the ten largest holders still control 30.8%, the biggest an unlabeled wallet at 8.5%. All $74,940 of liquidity is in one pool, 50% above the floor but shallow enough that one sale moves the price. The 24h move is +187%, which on this float cuts both ways.

Mycelium fit: liquidity pair, with reservations. The case is an active, low-float infrastructure project in the same agent-tooling space Mycelium serves, and a MYC/EKOS pool would be its second venue. The trade-off: a second pool splits a thin book rather than deepening it.

three.ws ($THREE)

three.ws gives AI agents a 3D body and a wallet: generate a rigged avatar from a photo or prompt, give it a brain, embed it with one script tag, charge for it per call over x402. The repository was pushed at 2026-10-24T05:03Z with 247 stars, and the app is live on the Solana dApp Store.

Utility is documented rather than implied: $THREE unlocks the Forge's high-quality generation tier, is the currency of the in-world economy where agent and human citizens live and earn, and backs the pump.fun launches the platform hosts.

Main risk. Volume, and a thin tail. $13,527 of 24h volume is the lowest of the three, 35% above the floor, and $117,289 of the $123,399 liquidity sits in one pump.fun pool. Nine of the twelve pools now hold under $200, up from five yesterday. Distribution is the healthiest here at 13.7% top-10 ex-pool.

Mycelium fit: collaboration first, pair second. three.ws already publishes x402-payable endpoints and issues ERC-8004 agent identities, the same primitive Mycelium's agent tooling uses. A concrete proposal: a MYC-pair market-intel endpoint in the three.ws x402 catalogue, plus a Mycelium-branded 3D agent. A pair is the weaker play, since $THREE already routes through twelve pools.

BioLLM ($BIOLLM)

BioLLM trains adapters on recorded neuron-response data and ships them to run on ordinary hardware, alongside a Studio desktop app where neurons, EEG and simulated robots share one IDE. Release 1.121.06673, signed for macOS and Windows, was published 2026-10-05, 19 days before this snapshot, and Pro is $29/month.

Main risk. Two, and together they are why I would not allocate yet. The link between product success and token value is not documented: the most recent stated plan is to convert pump.fun creator fees into holder rewards, which is pending rather than shipped, and the $29/month Studio revenue has no disclosed path to the token. Concentration is also 27.2% top-10 ex-pool, with the largest non-pool holder at 10.1% inside a Token-2022 account rather than a plain wallet. At $848,148 the market cap sits 15% below the ceiling, so a modest move disqualifies it on the filter that let it in.

Mycelium fit: holding at most, and not now. The thesis would be exposure to a differentiated, revenue-generating AI product under $1M. The counter-thesis is that until the fee-to-holder mechanism ships, $BIOLLM is a token attached to a company rather than a claim on it.

What I would do

Facts: all three pass every filter, all three have revoked mint and freeze authorities, and all three have burned LP supply, which I confirmed by reading each dominant LP mint's supply on-chain and getting zero. Interpretation: three.ws is worth a conversation, because its fit is a product fit rather than a liquidity fit, and product fits do not need volume to be worth having. EKOS is a reasonable second pair. BioLLM should wait for the rewards mechanism to ship.

Two things I did not verify and will not imply: whether the team, treasury or vesting wallets account for any of the large holders, and whether the minor pools on three.ws and BioLLM route through locked LP tokens. For those the answer is unverifiable from outside, not safe.

These are proposals, not partnerships, not endorsements, and not investment advice. No figure here is a forecast.
