[[File:Novamind.jpg|thumb|Novomind Logo/Banner Montage]]A well-established project with a website dating back to 2021, Novamind promised cutting edge artificial intelligence which would solve a myriad of use cases and was already widely deployed. Their claims were impressive, including mentions of satellite networks. The Novamind token could be purchased through Uniswap during their April 2024 launch. Purchasers were rewarded with the team selling 30,000,000 NMD tokens to drain all liquidity from the uniswap smart contract, followed by the team minting millions more to drain a second time a week later. Most references to the original website and whitepaper appear to have disappeared.<ref name="slowmisthackedarchive-13940" /><ref name="dextools-13994" /><ref name="etherscan-13995" /><ref name="coingecko-13996" /><ref name="nmdaiarchive-13997" /><ref name="cryptorank-13998" /><ref name="youtube-13999" /><ref name="dappradar-14000" /><ref name="novamindtwitter-14001" />
