Founded in August 2022, 0xPPL is a next-generation social network designed specifically for crypto natives. By offering the security of on-chain social networks, the startup aims to make on-chain navigation seamless and engaging.

It provides users with a comprehensive set of tools to manage their cryptocurrency portfolios across multiple blockchain ecosystems including EVM, Solana, Bitcoin, TION, and Cosmos.

An AllianceDAO spokesperson said: “0xPPL has the potential to change the way users interact with blockchain-based platforms. Its vision of seamless interactions on the blockchain aligns perfectly with the future of Web3, particularly as decentralized networks become more integral to how we connect, share, and collaborate online. We are excited to support 0xPPL’s mission and be a part of its transformative journey.”
