A new gamified onboarding platform is here to bridge the gap between Web3 curiosity and competence. Radix has launched RadQuest, a mobile-ready Web3 experience designed to make Blockchain accessible to all. 

Onboarding has been a challenge for Web3 since its inception, many newcomers feel intimidated and overwhelmed by the heavy use of technical jargon and complexity of the user experience, and in many cases abandoned their Web3 journey before it starts. 

Radix, a layer-1 protocol known for its innovative approach to blockchain scalability, security and user experience, addresses this issue directly. Collaborating with ustwo, creators of the award-winning game Monument Valley, Radix has transformed the Web3 learning process into an engaging, rewarding adventure.

Learning by Doing

RadQuest features interactive “quests” that guide users through key features of the Radix network. By completing these quests, users gain hands-on experience with key features of the Radix Network, such as human-readable transactions, network staking, and DEXs built using Radix’s Scrypto smart contract language.

This practical approach ensures users actively engage with blockchain concepts rather than merely reading about them. It contrasts sharply with traditional onboarding methods that often rely on dense documentation.

“RadQuest is not just about increasing wallet numbers or transaction volumes,” explains Adam Simmons, CMO of Radix. “It’s about educating users on Radix’s superior Web3 experience in a fun, rewarding, and repeatable way.”

Jetty, a friendly digital companion, guides users through their Web3 journey on RadQuest, helping them set up accounts, stake XRD, use DEXs, and more. Jetty makes the onboarding process engaging and less intimidating.

As users progress through RadQuest, Jetty will reward them with over $20 in XRD and special (tradeable) on-chain assets which can be used to craft rare NFTs exclusive to RadQuest — RadMorphs

The special assets are called Elements, Gems and Morph Energy Cards and are given to users by Jetty as rewards via Gift Boxes of varying levels. The quality of Gift Box determines the likelihood of receiving rarer Morph Energy Cards. 

Mobile-First for Modern Users

Recognizing the importance of seamless mobile experiences, RadQuest is fully optimized for mobile devices. Users can interact with Radix dApps directly from their phone’s browser or connect to a desktop browser. This mobile-first approach builds on recent updates to the Radix Wallet, enabling full mobile use of dApps and breaking down significant barriers to entry.

Beyond education, RadQuest showcases Radix’s unique solutions to common blockchain challenges. Users experience firsthand the benefits of Radix’s innovations, including:

  • Transaction Manifests and Reviews: These features enable truly human-readable transactions with guaranteed outcomes, eliminating the guesswork from crypto interactions.
  • Asset-Oriented “Radix Engine”: This virtual machine ensures all assets have clear and predictable behavior, easily displayed in Radix Wallet without needing custom tokens.
  • Persona System: By separating “who you are” from “what you own,” Radix enhances security and identity management within the ecosystem.

Building on Recent Successes

RadQuest, designed for individual users, also significantly benefits developers on the Radix network by providing a standardized onboarding tool, freeing them to focus on creating innovative applications.

Radix’s recent initiatives including a $10 million ecosystem fund, SuperStaking, Project Ignition and Token Trek, successfully boosted total value locked (TVL) and ecosystem activity. Project Ignition significantly increased Radix’s TVL by 76% in just two weeks, adding $20 million. 

SuperStaking, was fully subscribed within 90 minutes, contributing an additional $7.5 million in TVL. The latest community engagement campaign, Token Trek, helped the Radix Wallet surpass 100,000 downloads and increased monthly on-chain transactions to 330,196. 

Radix’s dApps, such as CaviarNine, Ociswap, Trove, Weft Finance and DefiPlaza have further helped the network accumulate over $30 million in TVL, highlighting its capability to offer a radically better Web3 experience. 

Looking forward, Radix plans to introduce features like decentralized, seed-phrase-free user experiences and multi-factor authentication, which may set new industry standards and reinforce Radix’s leadership in user-centric blockchain technology.

    SKALE is a network of EVM-compatible chains with pooled security. SKALE stands out by offering a gas-free blockchain experience for end-users. It is able to do this by shifting validator compensation to developers. This business model has allowed SKALE to find traction in the gaming sector, demonstrated by the activity in the Nebula and Calypso hubs. As the network matures, SKALE chain growth will be a key metric to follow as the network’s economic sustainability depends on new chains joining the network and paying their monthly subscription fee.
