Taking us back to early March, ETHDenver marked a dynamic kickoff to spring, filled with days of insights, collaboration and networking. Let’s recap the exciting partnerships we announced during this event:
Our journey at ETHDenver was eventful. From fruitful meetings to new partnerships, we extend our gratitude to our community for joining us. Dive into the Denver Dailies for further details and see you next year.
Both stakers and node operators were once again rewarded with MPC tokens for staking. We gave out over 2.6 million $MPC tokens for the Q7 rewards. Alongside this, we also began to see higher on-chain transactions. This translated to the node operators earning more than 100,000 in BYOC tokens. As the network grows further, we anticipate further earnings by our node operators. Look for an opportunity for delegated stakers to earn these BYOC rewards in the future.
In the ecosystem, notable advancements have taken place in March. DelNorte launched its project in one of the municipalities in El Salvador, beginning the minting of official property deeds. Check out our Twitter spaces AMA session with Del Norte CEO Anton Glotser to learn more. Nova Miningverse is gaining momentum, boasting over 1400 unique transactions. Additionally, zkCross (formerly TeraBlock) is on the verge of launching their initial bridging platform, with subsequent work beginning to launch a swap/DEX. First month of spring witnessed a significant surge in dApps launching on mainnet, with more coming in April.
We extend our thanks to our community for their unwavering support and enthusiasm. Stay tuned for more exciting developments and initiatives in the coming months.

From forging strategic partnerships at ETHDenver to launching our highly anticipated 25 million $MPC AirDrop program, the shortest month of the year has been a whirlwind of excitement and growth for Partisia Blockchain. We solidified ties with Georgia’s Innovation and Technology Agency, ventured into new realms with TeraBlock and Verida through engaging AMAs, celebrated the ingenuity of our hackathon winners, and embarked on a mission to empower Rust developers with TinTinLand. With fast track grants, educational initiatives, and a thriving community, we are ready for even greater success ahead. Thanks to our incredible community for your unwavering support – let’s make Q1 unforgettable!
In early February 2024, Partisia Blockchain achieved a significant milestone in advancing innovation by solidifying ties with Georgia’s Innovation and Technology Agency (GITA) under the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development. Partisia Blockchain will play a key role in shaping the minds of participants in GITA’s educational programs, contributing insights on MPC, homomorphic encryption and their integration with blockchain technology. This commitment to education reflects the shared vision of advancing technology while ensuring knowledge and understanding pave the way for a sustainable future.
ETHDenver was a platform for new partnerships, expanding our horizons and widening the reach of our unique technology. Trustswap, a provider of decentralized finance tools for token holders and Web3 businesses, is integrating Partisia Blockchain into their Crypto App, expanding MPC accessibility to 5 million users. Partisia Blockchain also partnered with Sierra Block Games, Web3 development, consulting and educational services organization, for validator services and adoption support. We will also collaborate with IoTex to realize the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN), safeguarding users’ IoT data ownership and monetization while rewarding data use without exposing confidential details. Together, they aim to protect users’ private IoT data and enable its secure utilization.
We were thrilled to launch our first official AirDrop on 1 February, marking a significant milestone for ecosystem adoption. With the governance vote for MPC token transferability looming, this AirDrop underscored Partisia Blockchain’s vision. Boasting an impressive pool of 25 million $MPC tokens, it offered unparalleled opportunities for early adopters. The first tranche kick started ecosystem expansion. Participants gained firsthand experience with leading MPC and blockchain technology, secured the network, and explored innovative dApps. As we geared up for MPC token listing, this AirDrop invigorated the ecosystem.
We were thrilled to see our AirDrop program resonate strongly with the community, especially given the impressive growth in our ecosystem. Since its inception, our ecosystem has witnessed remarkable progress:
These statistics underscore the growing momentum and enthusiasm within our community, and we have you to thank. Detailed participation information can be found on our official AirDrop page.
We launched our fast track grants in February 2024. These grants are geared toward developers planning to build something smaller in nature, and does not have to be geared toward building a business. We will pursue developers who wish to contribute to the community by building examples, PoC, and tools. For more information about our Grants Program, click here.
On 14 February, we held the second AMA with the up and coming cross-chain decentralized exchange TeraBlock. This time around we invited TeraBlock’s Shivam Tandon, Founder and CEO, and Muhammad Ali, Chief Commercial Officer, to provide insights from a non-developer’s perspective, on why Terablock is a game changer for DeFi, powered by the Partisia Blockchain. On 22 February, we held a dual AMA with ecosystem partner Verida. Mathias Glintborg, our Head of Product, and Chris Were, CEO of Verida, both introduced the projects to each other’s community, its use cases and technological achievements. An excellent primer for both data on decentralized Identity for Web3 (Verida) as well as multiparty computation.
Our Building Privacy in Web3 Hackathon concluded with a bang. We announced six winners, all projects that showcase our unique capabilities. From random number generations to supply chain management to zero-knowledge games, developers came out to really showcase their talent and show us how our amazing technology can be used. We will be continuing to work with them to bring them into the mainstream.
Partisia Blockchain and TinTinLand are set to launch a learning program aimed at attracting more Rust developers to our ecosystem. Currently, only 22,000 out of 30 million global developers are engaged in Web3. The collaboration aims to scale the developer ecosystem and unlock the Chinese developer community, attract new Rust developers from China, organize hackathons, workshops, and developer meetups, and promote our Grants Program. Together, we hope to expand developer engagement and foster growth within our ecosystem, particularly in China.
Thanks again to our amazing community for your dedicated support, we look forward to an exciting end to Q1 next month.
