📈 Boosting dApp Growth on Mantle Network Through Community Engagement At Mantle Network, it's our goal to create a thriving ecosystem for decentralized applications (dApps). Here are three ways we're making this happen: 1. Community Incentive Campaigns - Mantle Moonshot Mantle Moonshot was a huge success, driving unprecedented engagement across our ecosystem. Participants delved into weekly missions, interacting with various dApps and unlocking the chance to earn unique prizes, such as NFT add-on traits. In addition to the NFT add-on traits, winners also received a share of the token reward pool from the corresponding Moonshot Protocol. It wasn't just about the rewards. It was about creating a vibrant, interactive community around our dApps. You still have a chance to take advantage of the Mantle Moonshot campaign. On Feb. 1 a snapshot will be taken of all the wallets that own an upgraded Citizens of Mantle (CoM) NFT. Owners of these wallets will receive an equal share of the token rewards, courtesy of the Moonshot Protocol associated with their NFT add-on trait. If you participated in Mantle Moonshot and are yet to upgrade your NFT, head over to the CoM NFT Armory — only upgrade if you're sure, as the process is irreversible! Alternatively, you can purchase a successfully upgraded NFT from marketplaces such as Element Market or Mintle. 2. Web3 Marketing with QuestN The integration of QuestN within Mantle Network has been a strategic move. With over 200 free quest templates, dApps on our network can now engage users more effectively, ensuring higher visibility and deeper community interaction. QuestN is more than a marketing tool. It's a bridge connecting dApps to a broader, more engaged audience. The synergistic collaboration between Mantle Network and QuestN increases exposure and awareness for projects across both ecosystems, the latter of which is connected to numerous active communities spanning 20 EVM ecosystems. Whether you're an EVM ecosystem aiming to boost user engagement, or if you're keen on earning rewards by participating in quests, QuestN is your go-to destination. Don't miss the latest opportunities on Mantle Network, we're constantly adding new quests to the platform. Stay tuned for exciting developments! 3. Citizens of Mantle (CoM) Holder Perks Mantle Network's inaugural NFT collection, CoM, is not just your regular NFT collection. It's a gateway to exclusive opportunities. With currently 38,000 CoM holders, it stands as one of the strongest communities out there, and Mantle Network continues to leverage this support. Take the Astra: OmniRise example – CoM holders had the chance to mint rare spaceship NFTs, which play an integral role within the gaming dApp. This rewards our community and drives participation and growth of dApps within Mantle's Ecosystem. As mentioned above, you can become a member of the community by purchasing your CoM NFT on marketplaces such as Element Market or Mintle.

🤔How Mantle Is Navigating the SocialFi Resurgence Although TVL has remained relatively flat, the top-performing decentralized social networks have seen significant drawdowns in fees and revenue during Q4 2023, suggesting a decrease in user activity. Source: Friend.Tech Fees and Revenue — https://lnkd.in/es439Cs6 👇Where Are SocialFi Applications Going Wrong? - Scalability and Security Many SocialFi applications struggle with scalability challenges, especially compared to traditional platforms like Facebook. While web3 alternatives are progressing, some face difficulties in dealing with high amounts of user interactions. Additionally, decentralized social networks face a trade-off between scalability and security, with increased scalability sometimes compromising security and decentralization. This has led to security breaches in some projects, hindering SocialFi's progress and deterring web2 users from switching. - Incorrect Focus SocialFi applications should consider unique features that web2 platforms like TikTok and Instagram don't offer. Despite criticisms of web2 social media applications for lacking ownership, privacy, and censorship resistance, users still favor them over web3 platforms. Without distinct functionalities, web3 social media struggles to attract web2 users. 🛠️What Are the Solutions? - Seamless Onboarding Process Web3 social networks are focusing on easing user transition from web2 by simplifying signup processes. An example is Chat3 is introducing 'Sign up with Instagram.' This feature targets the large web2 user base on platforms like Instagram and Facebook, aiming to expand Chat3's reach. - Providing Value To The End-User To successfully convert users, web3 social networks need to focus on delivering value that persuades individuals to transition from their current web2 platforms. Chat3, for example, has introduced an approach where key opinion leaders (KOLs) can create token-gated conference rooms. Access to these rooms is exclusive to holders of the specific creator's key. - Cultivating Unique Services Beyond Web2 Capabilities For web3 social networks to succeed, they must provide products and services that web2 social media platforms find difficult to incorporate. If done correctly, such unique services can increase the likelihood of web2 users transitioning, as these features are unavailable on traditional social media. 📈Mantle's Role in Advancing SocialFi Application Development Mantle's modular architecture empowers dApps to leverage its capability to process 500 transactions per second, improving user experience and easing the transition for users migrating from web2 to web3 ecosystems. Mantle Network features among the most competitive gas fees in the industry, making it a cost-effective choice for platforms that need to handle a large volume of microtransactions. 📚Read more: https://lnkd.in/eAQQs9kP
