✸ Network Updates ✸
Chainbase Genesis Launch
In August 2024, we launched Chainbase Genesis (https://genesis.chainbase.com/landing) , your gateway to the world's largest omnichain data network.
Every interaction with the Prima Materia Testnet is valued and rewarded. By verifying addresses and completing tasks, you can earn Zircons. Developers (coming soon) will have direct access to relevant modules through this platform and can take advantage of developer incentives. Upon completing tasks, users can mint Chainbase Genesis SBT to become Chainbase OG users and exchange Zircons for benefits within Chainbase's ecosystem. Additionally, inviting friends through invitation links earns Zircons.
Excitingly, Chainbase Genesis surpassed 6 million users in just 14 days! Thank you for your support!
Theia: The AI Model for Crypto Natives
TheiaChat has launched, enabling users to receive basic information on crypto news and data through conversations. This alpha version serves as a test example for Chainbase's world model, Theia. Users can interact with TheiaChat (https://theiachat.chainbase.com), providing feedback on responses directly within the dialogue box to help enhance Theia.
Theia is designed to transform vast amounts of obscure on-chain data into accessible intelligence for users in a reliable manner. This is achieved by integrating insights from both language models and the Chainbase omnichain data network through continuous model training.
Since its release, TheiaChat has seen incredible adoption, with over 2,400,000 interactions already!
✸ Date Platform Updates ✸
Bitcoin Data Support
In August, we expanded our capabilities by adding support for Bitcoin (BTC) data in our Alpha version. This update broadens our omnichain data network, allowing users to access and analyze Bitcoin blockchain data directly within the Alpha platform. We continue to optimize and expand based on user feedback to enhance the user experience.
Coming Soon: On-Chain Labels
We are developing on-chain label support for the Alpha version, aimed at improving the accessibility of blockchain data. This feature will make it easier to identify and categorize addresses, transactions, and smart contracts, thereby enhancing analytical capabilities, risk assessment, and pattern recognition for our users.
In Development: TON DeFi Dataset
We are working on integrating The Open Network (TON) DeFi dataset into our Alpha platform. This feature will provide access to key metrics and data from the TON DeFi ecosystem, making it useful for market analysis, yield farming strategies, and liquidity insights.
✸ Staking Updates ✸
Innovative Ethereum Staking Product with Puffer Finance and SSV Network
Chainbase Staking has partnered with Puffer Finance and SSV Network to launch a groundbreaking Ethereum staking product. Leveraging SSV's Distributed Validator Technology (DVT), this product offers efficient, secure, and high-yielding node validation services for Ethereum staking.
New Partnerships
We are excited to announce new partnerships with 0G, Solayer, and Sonic.
✸ Marketing Updates ✸
Chainbase Chat #2: The Future of AGI in Web3
In August, we successfully hosted the second Chainbase Chat, where we had an in-depth discussion with io.net, Near, Nesa, and Holoworld AI on "The Future of AGI in Web3." Additionally, Luki, the head of the Chainbase ecosystem, shared insights on the recently launched Prima Materia Testnet, explaining how it lays the groundwork for the development of AGI in Web3.

Partnership with IO
In August, we are excited to announce our strategic partnership with io.net to build a stronger decentralized AI and data infrastructure. By expanding our datasets, we aim to enhance Theia’s performance. Additionally, io.net will integrate Chainbase's omnichain data network into its AI projects, further advancing the decentralized AI and data ecosystem.
Partnership with FLock
In August, we partnered with FLock to make blockchain data more accessible to developers, aiming to democratize AI through decentralized training and value alignment. To kick off this partnership, we co-hosted a hackathon focused on developing a Text2SQL Model Agent for Blockchain Data, with a total prize pool of 600 USDC. This collaboration is a significant step towards enhancing the accessibility and usability of blockchain data.
✸ Ecosystem Updates ✸
AVS Operator Onboarding
We began the month by inviting the developer community to become AVS Operators on the Chainbase Prima Materia Testnet. By the end of August, we successfully onboarded over 1,000 operators! A huge thank you to all the node operators who provided invaluable feedback and operational suggestions. Your contributions are vital as we gear up for the mainnet launch, and we're deeply grateful for your efforts. A big round of applause to all our onboarded operators! Check them out here: AVS Operators.
In tandem with the AVS testnet launch, we've had several productive discussions with Eigenlayer (http://eigenlayer.xyz) to further optimize our AVS performance and network expansion. We're excited about the ongoing support and collaboration from Eigenlayer.
Awesome Collabs
We're making waves in the decentralized AI and data space through strategic partnerships! Nesa leverages our vast omnichain data network for enhanced AI model training, while FLock.io collaborates with us on a Text2SQL hackathon. Additionally, io.net integrates the network into their AI projects, and Masa.fi contributes social data to the network. These collaborations push the boundaries of both AI and blockchain technology, making real-time data accessibility and affordability a closer reality.
Connecting with Builders
We had a busy month on the builder side! Our COO Chris Feng mentored and judged at Amber.ac's BUIDL_QUESTS hackathon, supporting future founders. Meanwhile, Developer Relations Officer Kagemni Karimu attended Coinfest Asia in Bali, participating in workshops at ICP Chain Fusion Hacker House and connecting with H.E.R DAO hackers. Beyond building connections with the developer community, Our Chief of DevRef Kagemni enjoyed the local Balinese culture and formed lasting memories.
What’s Next? Who’s Next?
September is set to be action-packed! We're heading to KBW and Token2049, with local touchdowns planned in Korea, Singapore, Poland, Italy, and more. Where will you be? Let's connect!
✸ Community Updates ✸
Expanded Community Engagement
On August 22nd, Chainbase Network officially launched the Genesis Website. Boosted by this event, the Chainbase Discord Server surpassed 80,000 users. Simultaneously, we successfully hosted a Chainbase Quiz Competition within the community, with over 100 community members participating online. This fun quiz helped participants better understand the Chainbase Network and gain rewards from it. Following this, our community Moderators independently organised, and in collaboration with the SHOGUN community, several Poker Now competitions. Each session attracted participation from over 200 members, injecting fresh energy into the Chainbase community.
In terms of regional community development, this August, we expanded by establishing communities in Vietnamese and Turkish. In the coming month, we will continue to onboard new regional moderators to further strengthen the Chainbase community’s development.
