Greetings, Trailblazers!

We're incredibly excited to partner with Dune and bring Taiko's data to life in a way that's open, accessible, and truly empowering for the entire community.

Nearly a month ago, we introduced the “Trailblazer” role to recognize our most passionate community members. The deadline to obtain this role was July 10, and we're happy to see how many of you embraced this change and supported our decision. This role unlocks 100% of the rewards earned by reaching a certain level.

Foundation Built, Future Ignited.

We’re excited to announce a strategic partnership with Nethermind, bringing together two teams deeply aligned on the vision of a decentralized, performant, and production-ready based rollup stack. This collaboration is grounded in a shared commitment to advancing the frontier of Layer 2 infrastructure with a clear focus on decentralization, sequencing innovation, and trust-minimized design. Together, we’re working to accelerate the evolution of the based rollup ecosystem, turning research into resilient, permissionless systems ready for mainnet.

Alongside EthCC Cannes 2025, we, as the first based rollup scaling Ethereum, hosted the second Based Rollup Summit in Cannes, continuing the vital conversation around the future of Ethereum scalability.

Just over a year ago in June, we launched Trailblazers, a program that rewards Taiko mainnet participants every three months. Thanks to the incredible interest and passion from our community, it quickly became one of the most successful community initiatives to date.

It’s time to kick off another exciting season of Trailblazers, the community favorite program that rewards users for interacting with the Taiko Alethia mainnet. This season is full of excitement and great opportunities for our community. But before we dive in, let’s wrap up Season 4.

Total Value Locked (TVL) is the lifeblood of any blockchain, driving the network’s stability and growth. At Taiko, we are committed to fostering a sustainable TVL that strengthens the ecosystem, enhances user trust, and supports long-term development. By ensuring ample liquidity, we aim to deliver the best experience for everyone who chooses Taiko.
