KateWelcome back to Inside EARN’M, your monthly behind-the-scenes look at how we’re building, scaling, and listening to our community. In this October episode, we covered:
🔗 EARN’M L2: From testing to scaling phase, 25K tx/day, block explorer is live
🎁 Mystery Boxes V2: first native L2 asset, migration path ready, Mode Earn App is complete
📊 Data Layer Vision: The foundation for the next evolution
💸 EARNMax: ongoing daily winners, leaderboard momentum, referral boosts
🆕 $EARNM Staking: new holders feature launched!
🛠️ EARNM L2: The Scaling Solution for Attention
October’s standout moment was EARNM L2’s official leap from the testing stage into full-scale deployment - a pivotal milestone not only for EARN’M, but for every partner building atop our platform.
After months of testing on both mainnet and testnet, all systems are stable and performing smoothly.
✅ ~25,000 transactions per day over the past 10 days.
✅ Top-5 most transacted L2 scaling solution, right beside Arbitrum, Base, OP, and Starknet.
✅ Low gas fees, paid in $EARNM.
✅ Stable activity with public Blockchain Explorer available

EARNM L2: Partnership-Driven Growth
Partnerships have always been the backbone of the EARN’M ecosystem, and EARNM L2 takes that further.
Built in collaboration with:
🔹 Alchemy (infrastructure)
🔹 Arbitrum (Orbit stack)
Activated with partners like:
🔹 Mode Mobile - integrating directly into the L2 via Mystery Boxes V2 and other reward mechanics
🔹 Additional projects already lined up to deploy new smart contracts and leverage $EARNM for on-chain reward activations
EARN’M L2 is more than a simple migration of products to a new chain. It serves as a robust scaling framework, empowering projects and partners to innovate, accelerate on-chain engagement, and unlock faster, more cost-effective, and rewarding experiences.
“We wanted to create a sustainable solution that supports not just our ecosystem, but also our partners who activate rewards for their own communities.” — Gaston Klanian, General Manager of EARN’M
EARNM L2: Mystery Boxes V2
Mystery Boxes V2 are the first native asset on EARNM L2. Migration from V1 → V2 is now complete, with full integration into the Mode Earn App.
✅ Transactions will flow directly through EARNM L2
✅ Users will mint, open, and use boxes natively
✅ Smooth transition ensured with user migration planning
Mystery Boxes V2 is a new generation of products, purpose-built for EARN’M’s scalable infrastructure.
EARNM L2: Data Layer: The Next Frontier
Lastly, EARNM L2 is the foundation for what comes next: a data layer that structures and showcases user activity across the network.
This new layer will allow EARN’M to:
🔹 Map out user behaviors and activity sources
🔹 Demonstrate on-chain engagement metrics (TVL, retention, activation)
🔹 Prove the real economic value of EARN’M’s active user base
This positions EARN’M as the essential bridge for brands and protocols seeking verified, reward-driven user acquisition across both Web3 and Web2 landscapes.
“Everybody wants users. We already have them and we’re building the data layer to show it.” — Gaston Klanian

🆕 New $EARNM Staking Experience
_1/w=3840,quality=90,fit=scale-down)
The new “Stake & Win” feature within EARNMax reimagines traditional staking, transforming it into a dynamic, reward-driven experience where prize draw tickets replace standard token emissions.
Instead of earning static token rewards, $EARNM stakers now earn draw tickets that automatically enter them into:
- Daily prize draws
- Weekly prize draws
- Monthly prize draws
- And a Special Stakers prize draw for top-tier holders 🏆
By earning draw tickets, rather than passive emissions, staking now ties directly into the EARNMax prize ecosystem. Every ticket is a genuine opportunity to win, turning your staked tokens into daily chances at tangible rewards.
This staking model ties your on-chain participation directly to your daily earning potential — an important step toward an interconnected reward economy across EARNMax and EARNM L2.
All new deposits into staking.earnm.com pools will be disabled on November 6 ❗️ After this date, no further rewards will be issued to stakers. Withdrawals will still be available after this period. However, we encourage all users to unstake before this deadline to ensure a smooth transition.

💸 EARNMax Updates
/w=3840,quality=90,fit=scale-down)
Gaston called EARNMax the “heartbeat of EARN’M engagement,” where every daily action, quest, and referral seamlessly feeds back into meaningful on-chain rewards.
Here’s everything new and evolving inside EARNMax this month ⤵️
🎟️ Daily Draws & Continuous Winners
EARNMax now runs Daily Draws, adding three winners every day to the existing weekly and monthly prize structure.
This daily mechanic keeps the platform vibrant around the clock, celebrating consistent participation rather than just rewarding occasional big wins.
🧮 Leaderboard
Every interaction, ticket, quest, referral, subscription, or staking action - contributes to a user’s EarnScore. The Top 10 users each week are automatically entered into a special monthly prize pool, giving power users a consistent reason to stay active.
Gaston highlighted how the leaderboard “creates a self-sustaining feedback loop,” where users are motivated not just to participate, but to climb ranks through daily engagement.
💵 Simplified Onboarding & Credit Card Support
A significant stride toward greater accessibility is the introduction of credit card payments and streamlined onboarding within EARNMax. Now, newcomers can subscribe effortlessly - no technical knowledge of swaps or bridges required - dramatically lowering the entry barrier.
“We want people to be able to enter the EARN’M ecosystem as easily as buying a raffle ticket, even if they’ve never used Web3 before.” — Gaston Klanian
This change opens the door to millions of Web2 users joining through familiar payment methods.
🏗️ Expansion Ahead: Model for Web2 + Web3 users
Gaston hinted at the next stage for EARNMax, a self-service system for other partners, communities and individuals to run their own prize pools and raffles, combining Web2 simplicity with Web3 transparency.
We believe that’s how we bring millions of new people into the ecosystem — not by forcing them to learn DeFi, but by providing a simple, fun experience that’s fully Web3 underneath.

🌐 EARN’M Website Redesign
The EARN’M website is undergoing a full redesign and restructuring to reflect the new ecosystem - connecting all products under one intuitive interface:
🔹 Make it a lot simpler for new users to understand what EARN’M is and how the ecosystem connects - EARNMax, Mystery Boxes, and SmartNodes.
🔹 Live stats and data integration from EARNM L2
- Simplified user onboarding flow with credit card and wallet options
While the redesign is still underway, the visual identity is evolving and new content flows are being thoughtfully crafted.
The direction is clear: www.earnm.com will become the single hub for everything, the main entry point into the EARN’M ecosystem!
🏁 Final Thoughts
October was the month EARN’M truly shifted into scale mode!
EARNM L2 is live and thriving. Mystery Boxes V2 and $EARNM staking are reshaping how rewards work. EARNMax is evolving into a fully connected, user-friendly reward loop with Web2-ready onboarding and Web3 transparency.
Stay active, stay curious, and see you next month 👋
This daily mechanic keeps the platform vibrant around the clock, celebrating consistent participation rather than just rewarding occasional big wins.
