XION Ecosystem Heavyweight: Join the Kaito Yapping rewards program and lead the new wave of consumer-grade applications in Web3.
XION has joined Kaito's Yapping list rewards event, which started on July 16 and will last for three months, with a total of 100,000 $XION allocated as rewards. XION is the world's first Layer 1 (L1) Blockchain designed for human consumers, aimed at eliminating the complexity of Web3 through "generalized abstraction" technology to provide users with a seamless experience while retaining the characteristics of Decentralization, transparency, and verifiable ownership. Looking at the current development, this track will become increasingly important, as lowering the usage threshold is key for Web3 to truly break into the mainstream.
Today (18th) during the Asian session, XION has risen to a trending hotspot on X (formerly Twitter), indicating the cryptocurrency community's high focus on XION.

1. Core Highlights of XION: Eliminating Web3 Complexity
XION aims to eliminate the complexity of Web3 through "broad abstraction" technology, providing users with a seamless experience while retaining the characteristics of Decentralization, transparency, and verifiable ownership. Key highlights include:
No wallet design: Direct email/biometric login, no need to manage private keys or mnemonic phrases, supports seamless use across devices.
Zero Gas Fee: The parameterized fee structure allows users to participate in on-chain activities without initial capital.
USDC as a base currency: can avoid currency price volatility risks.
High interoperability: Supports seamless interaction with mainstream ecosystems such as Ethereum, Cosmos, and Solana.
II. The Strong Background and Ecological Development of XION
In terms of investment background, XION has secured a total of $36 million in funding led by Animoca Brands, Circle Ventures, and Multicoin.
The development of the XION ecosystem is particularly noteworthy. It has attracted well-known brands from industries such as fashion, gaming, e-commerce, automotive, and food, like Uber and TEMU, which have reduced user acquisition costs by over 79% through reward-driven activities. Its ecosystem encompasses over 150 projects including wallets, bridges, and infrastructure, with application scenarios including Decentralization social, e-commerce, gaming, and DAOs.
3. XION 2025 Mid-term Outlook: When Crypto Becomes Invisible, Mass Adoption Truly Begins
In just six months, XION has successfully evolved from an experimental field of blockchain abstraction into a fully operational platform that supports real-world consumption applications, institutional-grade infrastructure, and a global community.
Scaled user adoption: Over 150 brands, including Uber, Amazon, BMW, Lacoste, LEGO, and Travelex, have launched marketing campaigns on XION through the EarnOS platform. These campaigns have achieved over 35 million brand touchpoints and attracted more than 4 million users to engage deeply through AR experiences, social interactions, and digital rewards. The extreme simplification of the XION infrastructure has made all of this possible.
Gas-free transactions using USDC: XION is the first and only Layer 1 Blockchain that supports paying Gas fees with USDC. Users do not need to hold or exchange XION tokens; transactions are automatically settled using USDC in the background while still accumulating value for the ecosystem. This upgrade is a key step in eliminating the "entry barrier" to cryptocurrency.
Institutional Infrastructure and Compliance: In the first half of 2025, XION significantly expanded its institutional access channels, including Anchorage Digital channels, Ledger integrated with XION native support, and XION listing on Bitvavo, HTX, Base, Axelar, and Aerodrome, further expanding liquidity and access channels. XION also released a white paper compliant with the EU MiCA Regulation Chapter 2 (Title II), becoming the first L1 to meet this regulatory standard.
DAVE: The first Blockchain Mobile Development Toolkit: XION has launched DAVE - the first complete mobile development toolkit designed for Blockchain, supporting 18 million mobile developers to directly access Web3 infrastructure without changing their existing development processes.
Ecology and Developer Growth: In the first half of 2025, XION launched multiple programs to support entrepreneurship and developers, including events such as Proof of Webcept, Proof of Concept, XION House, zkHack Berlin, and Believathon, collectively driving XION to become one of the fastest-growing developer communities in the consumer Web3 space.
Community and Culture: XION always prioritizes the community, especially evident in the first half of 2025, for example, The Promethean Saga had an activity level reaching 800,000, with the DAU/market cap ratio being the highest among all L1 projects.
4. XION Participates in Kaito Yapping Rewards Activity
This event will start on July 16 and last for three months, with a total of 100,000 $XION allocated as rewards. Here are the key reward mechanisms:
· The top 20 yapping each month will share 2,000 $XION.
· Weekly selection of 8 trending topics, plus 2,000 $XION rewards.
· Social Media Creation rewards: Every week, 8 best content creators will be selected for an additional 100 $XION rewards.
Before July 25, the top three participants with the highest engagement in the tweet below will win rewards of up to 3,000/2,000/1,000 $XION.
Conclusion:
$XION may be one of the best L1s currently balancing "user experience" and "decentralization". I resonate with the founder Burnt Banksy's philosophy: "Making Web3 accessible to everyone without technical knowledge." From the current development perspective, this track will become increasingly important, as lowering the barriers to use is key for Web3 to truly break out.
