From Layer 2 to EARNScore: Big Upgrades, Bigger Plans.
Welcome back to Inside EARN’M, your direct line into what we’re building behind the scenes—from product milestones to future upgrades.
🧱 Layer 2 Is Coming
The biggest headline? EARN’M Layer 2 is officially going live in early July.
This custom-built chain will allow all transactions across the EARN’M ecosystem to be powered by the $EARNM token, which serves as gas, reward, and the backbone of the ecosystem.
It’s a foundational move for decentralization and scalability, enabling faster smart contracts tailored for EARN’M products, and flowing more transaction volume directly through the token.
“This is a huge milestone not just for us, but for the ecosystem we’re building,” said Gaston. “All volume will flow through $EARNM.”
The L2 is being deployed in partnership with the Arbitrum Foundation and supported by Alchemy, one of EARNM’s closest dev partners.
🎯 EARNMax Growth & Feature Upgrades
EARNMax users have now received over $22,000 in rewards. Ticket issuance doubled Week Over Week for the last THREE WEEKS from ~250k to over ~1.1M in just a few days, and it’s just getting started.
With weekly and monthly prize draws now live. Here’s what’s launching:
“The product is maturing - users see the rewards are real.”
✅ New Checkout Flow
A smoother, faster way to subscribe - personalized by traffic source or campaign. Better UX = more signups = bigger rewards.
🎮 Quests
Gamified, free tasks you can complete to earn bonus tickets. Some will be simple (e.g., join socials); others more advanced.
Expect a growing catalog, including partner quests from 5 upcoming collaborators.
📊 EarnScore Leaderboard
A point-based system that tracks actions like:
- Completing quests
- Long-term subscriptions
- Interacting with Layer 2 (coming soon)
Top 10 users each week will get exclusive access and unique rewards. Think of it as your XP bar but with real payouts 🔥
🔁 Daily Check-Ins
Visit the site daily, earn more points. It’s simple engagement, boosted by compounding benefits.
💰 New Prize Pools
Not just weekly & monthly pools anymore. Expect:
- Multiple draws per week
- “Pop-up” rewards for active users
- Object-based rewards, not just USDC (coming soon)
“Users spending more time and doing more = bigger total prize pools for everyone.”
📈 Community Q&A Highlights
Q: Please provide an update on the following roadmap 2025 items: "Enabling any smartphone provider to launch proprietary EarnPhone solutions worldwide” & "Innovative new products from EARNM.AI"?
A:
- EarnPhone: Gaston shared that while there are active conversations happening around enabling SmartNode providers to launch local EarnPhone programs, the team is currently focused on foundational infrastructure, like Layer 2, and core products like EARNMax.
- EARNM.AI: This is EARN'M's experimental playground: a space for one-off games, viral dApps, and experimental campaigns aimed at drawing attention and funneling it back to the core ecosystem.
“Think of it as our moonshot division. If a concept catches fire, we’ll scale it. But if it doesn’t gain traction, we don’t force it.”
While no public EARNM.AI launches are currently planned, the team remains active in exploring what's next in the attention economy.
Q2: How are you ensuring the sustainability of the ecosystem?
A2:
With volatility in crypto markets, many users asked: What’s being done to support the $EARNM token and the broader economy?
Here’s the strategy recap:
- Layer 2 puts $EARNM at the center of every transaction, literally as gas.
- EARNMax actively removes tokens from circulation by using $EARNM for rewards and payments.
- Referral and Quest incentives: Without using treasury funds, they promote natural user engagement and acquisition.
“We can’t control the market, but we can build real value. Our job is to create utility, reward engagement, and grow sustainably.”
The token price will follow long-term usage and demand. And EARN'M is committed to staying heads-down and building through all market conditions.
