2025 was a defining year for Galxe. What began as the leading questing tool has now become web3’s unified growth infrastructure and distribution platform, powering how ecosystems onboard users, measure contribution, and distribute rewards across the decentralized internet.

The Galxe community continued its extraordinary growth, with 36 million users, over 7,700 partner projects, 1 million daily active users, and hundreds of thousands of onchain credentials issued. These milestones reflect more than scale, they represent how web3 teams are building.

The Unified Growth Platform 

This year we unified the Galxe growth stack into one platform. What once required juggling multiple tools to run a campaign, onboarding flows, Sybil checks, tracking systems, and reward distribution, now lives in a single and consistent experience. Campaigns became easier to run, more reliable for partners, and more intuitive for users.

To support teams at every stage, we introduced Galxe Business+, a subscription model that lets projects choose the exact growth toolkit they need based on their current stage and business objectives. Whether a team is educating early users, scaling a testnet, or preparing for a major ecosystem rollout, Business+ offers structured tiers that align with their goals while giving them access to the same trusted Galxe infrastructure. Teams can explore the available plans or connect with us directly to design a tailored solution.

Quest: Flexible, Programmable, and Trustless

Galxe Quest remained the most widely used onchain and offchain activation tool in crypto. This year, it grew into a flexible growth layer that projects used in different ways depending on their stage and needs. From lightweight onboarding flows to fully embedded API-driven experiences, Quest powered everything from ad-hoc campaigns to multi-week ecosystem journeys involving dozens of dApps.

We expanded Quest’s multi-chain capabilities, supporting token rewards across Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, Sui, Sei, and more, giving different teams and ecosystems greater flexibility and users an improved network-native experience. We expanded Quest’s multi-chain capabilities to support token rewards across Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, Sui, Sei, and more, giving teams greater flexibility while delivering a more network-native experience for users. At the same time, we continued improving the end-user journey through enhancements like MetaMask support for Solana and many other usability upgrades that reduced friction across ecosystems.Alongside these infrastructure improvements, we introduced the Galxe Rewards Hub, adding a dedicated layer for gamification and progression that encourages deeper user engagement and repeat participation across quests. In collaboration with Succinct, we launched the first-ever zkRaffle in web3, bringing ZK verification, Drand randomness, and auditable fairness to onchain giveaways. Since then, Galxe has hosted 2,700+ zkRaffles with 3.8M+ participating wallets, setting a new standard for trustless and verifiable incentives.

Earndrop: Solving Airdrop Distribution Challenges 

As more established web3 brands and upcoming projects approached mainnet on Galxe, token distribution emerged as a widespread industry challenge. Teams needed secure, scalable, Sybil-resistant claim flows, but most lacked the infrastructure to support high traffic, complex allocation logic, or branded user experiences. Galxe Earndrop was built to close that gap. A fully customizable, airdrop-as-a-service model powered by Galxe’s battle-tested infrastructure, capable of handling massive claim surges, multi-chain distributions, vesting schedules, and Sybil-resistant eligibility out of the box.

Sahara AI, Tanssi, DeLorean and many more projects turned to Earndrop to deliver smooth, secure, branded token claim experiences. Whether distributing a circulating asset or coordinating multi-tier contributor unlocks, Earndrop enabled seamless execution for teams, and a frictionless experience for users.

Starboard: Smarter Way to Grow Web3 Communities 

Galxe Starboard was one of our biggest launches of the year. An intelligence layer built directly into the Galxe platform that gives teams a new way to understand, measure, and reward contribution. By evaluating social content, community engagement, influence, and key onchain actions, Starboard surfaces the users who are driving momentum.

Over the year, it became a go-to solution for teams looking to recognize meaningful contributors and elevate the voices that matter. As a natural extension of the Galxe product suite, Starboard introduced a fresh campaign format beyond traditional task-based quests, enabling impact-driven and narrative-aligned programs using the same trusted Galxe infrastructure.

Ecosystem Activations

Galxe’s evolution into a full growth infrastructure layer was reflected in how ecosystems used it throughout the year. Across leading L1s, L2s, and applications, Galxe powered coordinated growth journeys, from onboarding and testnet stress tests to user education and mainnet activations, contributing to over 177 million onchain transactions across Gravity Alpha Mainnet, Polygon, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Sui, Arbitrum, Base, Solana, Avalanche, and other major networks.

Few highlights from 2025:

  • Soneium introduced web2-native creators and mainstream audiences to web3 through a narrative-driven, multi-week Galxe campaign exploring NFTs, SocialFi, and gaming, building one of the year’s strongest ecosystem onboarding journeys

  • Sahara AI leveraged Earndrop to launch a fully customized “Knowledge Drop”, featuring contributor tiers, branding, and a structured vesting flow. The campaign achieved significantly higher retention than traditional token distributions 

  • Dango kickstarted community momentum ahead of the Alpha Mainnet launch through OAT and raffle activations. Testnet quests attracted over 160K participants and significantly boosted their social presence, with 1% of the total token supply allocated to top Starboard contributors 

  • In a strategic partnership with 0G, Galxe powered large-scale testnet participation, driving 2.5M+ quest engagements and running a two-season Starboard program that allocated 100K $0G to top contributors

  • Tanssi built early momentum through NFT activations and quest campaigns, alongside a pre-mainnet Earndrop that distributed ~$1.7M in $TANSSI tokens. Powered by Galxe’s customizable claim flows, Sybil protection, and scale-tested infrastructure, the Earndrop delivered a seamless reward-claiming experience for thousands of contributors 

  • Irys leveraged Galxe to power one of its largest testnet initiatives, guiding users through programmable data, the emerging Irysverse, and related activations. Structured daily engagement and progression-based learning drove participation to 2.7M+ users, positioning Irys as one of the year’s standout testnet campaigns 

  • Beyond these flagship activations, some of the year’s most highly engaged single-quest experiences came from standalone campaigns. Avalanche, Gopher, Forte Protocol, Karrier One, Ducat Protocol, Warden Protocol, and Mantle Network delivered record participation 

Looking Ahead 

Building on a proven track record and battle-tested infrastructure, Galxe enters the new year focused on supporting ecosystem and community growth through a single, unified platform designed to be intuitive for both projects and users. As web3 continues to evolve, we remain committed to helping teams of all sizes build, engage, and scale with clarity and confidence, while improving discovery and participation across the ecosystem.
