Newton Protocol (NEWT), launched by Magic Labs on June 24, 2025, is a decentralized platform for verifiable on-chain automation. Backed by $90M from PayPal Ventures and Polygon, it uses AI agents, zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), and trusted execution environments (TEEs) to streamline cross-chain DeFi tasks like trading and staking.
The NEWT token, with a 1B total supply (215M circulating), powers gas fees and governance on Ethereum and Sui. Its Binance Alpha listing and 10% airdrop (100M tokens) drove a 40% price surge to $0.56, though a post-airdrop crash to $0.46 raised concerns. Listings on Upbit and Bithumb boosted liquidity.
The June 24 TGE and airdrop, rewarding BNB and Kaito users, sparked 1M+ user sign-ups. X posts highlight NEWT’s role in AI-driven DeFi, while others praise its ZKP security. However, Binance Alpha’s underperformance and a 40% price drop post-airdrop fueled skepticism. Kaito’s referral system aims to rebuild trust, with $0.46 as key support. South Korea’s regulatory scrutiny of Upbit adds risks.
NEWT’s innovative automation and strong backing signal potential, but volatility and regulatory hurdles loom. Investors should watch $0.46 support and stake for 12–15% APY rewards. Monitor Binance and Upbit trading volumes for breakout signals.
