## Introduction

We introduce **DMind-1**, a domain-specialized LLM fine-tuned for the Web3 ecosystem via supervised instruction tuning and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF).

To support real-time and resource-constrained applications, we further introduce **DMind-1-mini**, a compact variant distilled from both DMind-1 and a generalist LLM using a multi-level distillation framework. It retains key domain reasoning abilities while operating with significantly lower computational overhead.

**DMind-1** and **DMind-1-mini** represent a robust foundation for intelligent agents in the Web3 ecosystem.

## 1. Model Overview

### DMind-1-mini

To address scenarios requiring lower latency and faster inference, we introduce **DMind-1-mini**, a lightweight distilled version of DMind-1 based on Qwen3-14B. DMind-1-mini is trained using knowledge distillation and our custom **DeepResearch** framework, drawing from two teacher models:
- **DMind-1** (Qwen3-32B): Our specialized Web3 domain model.
- **GPT-o3 + DeepResearch**: A general-purpose SOTA LLM, with its outputs processed through our DeepResearch framework for Web3 domain alignment.

The **Distillation pipeline** combines:

- **Web3-specific data distillation**: High-quality instruction-following and QA examples generated by the teacher models.

- **Distribution-level supervision**: The student model learns to approximate the teachers' output distributions through soft-label guidance, preserving nuanced prediction behavior and confidence calibration.

- **Intermediate representation transfer**: Knowledge is transferred by aligning intermediate representations between teacher and student models, promoting deeper structural understanding beyond surface-level mimicry.

This multi-level distillation strategy enables DMind-1-mini to maintain high Web3 task performance while significantly reducing computational overhead and latency, making it suitable for real-time applications such as instant Q&A, on-chain analytics, and lightweight agent deployment.


## 2. Evaluation Results


![DMind-1 Web3 Performance](figures/normalized-performance-with-price.jpeg)

We evaluate DMind-1 and DMind-1-mini using the [DMind Benchmark](https://huggingface.co/datasets/DMindAI/DMind_Benchmark), a domain-specific evaluation suite designed to assess large language models in the Web3 context. The benchmark includes 1,917 expert-reviewed questions across nine core domain categories, and it features both multiple-choice and open-ended tasks to measure factual knowledge, contextual reasoning, and other abilities.

To complement accuracy metrics, we conducted a **cost-performance analysis** by comparing benchmark scores against publicly available input token prices across 24 leading LLMs. In this evaluation:

- **DMind-1** achieved the highest Web3 score while maintaining one of the lowest token input costs among top-tier models such as Grok 3 and Claude 3.7 Sonnet.

- **DMind-1-mini** ranked second, retaining over 95% of DMind-1’s performance with greater efficiency in latency and compute.

Both models are uniquely positioned in the most favorable region of the score vs. price curve, delivering state-of-the-art Web3 reasoning at significantly lower cost. This balance of quality and efficiency makes the DMind models highly competitive for both research and production use.



## 3. Use Cases
- **Expert-Level Question & Answering**: Provides accurate, context-aware answers on blockchain, DeFi, smart contracts, and related Web3 topics.
- **Compliance-Aware Support**: Assists in drafting or reviewing content within regulatory and legal contexts.
- **Content Generation in Domain**: Produces Web3-specific blog posts, documentation, and tutorials tailored to developers and users.
- **DeFi Strategy Suggestions**: Generates insights and recommendations for yield farming, liquidity provision, and portfolio strategies based on user-provided data.
- **Risk Management**: Suggests strategies aligned with user risk profiles for more informed decision-making in volatile markets.
