2025 marked one of the most productive and expansive years in Vergeās history, with consistent core development, rapid ecosystem growth, and major exchange and infrastructure milestones. The year began with multiple Verge Core releases (v7.8.0 through v7.11), reinforcing network stability and performance, alongside important wallet updates including a major Android wallet release. Verge also gained national recognition early in the year, with both CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap listing $XVG and $XVGETH as cryptocurrencies āMade in the USA,ā while third-party coverage expanded through Guarda Wallet articles and in-wallet DEX integrations.
Throughout the spring and summer, Verge significantly expanded real-world utility and accessibility. $XVG was added to multiple payment platforms such as CardStorm and MyCryptoCheckout, enabling broader merchant adoption, while new exchange listings and swaps rolled out across Coinoswap, LetsExchange, Digifinex, and Baltex. Community engagement remained strong through giveaways, NFT launches, and partner contests, while the XVG ecosystem grew aggressively via multi-chain expansion. A series of 1:1 airdrops introduced XVGPOLY, XVGBSC, and XVGBASE, followed by the launch of XVGSUITE tokens across multiple smart-contract networks, with rapid CoinGecko listings and cross-chain support via Bungee.Exchange.
The second half of 2025 focused on infrastructure, scale, and institutional reach. Vergeās core codebase recorded over 300 commits this year, placing it in the top 10% for most actively maintained projects. Verge Core v8.0 launched as a major upgrade with performance improvements and modern Tor integration, followed by incremental releases through v8.0.3. Developer tooling advanced with NOWNodes launching Verge BlockBook, and internal GitHub workflows were optimized to cut build times by up to 80%. On the market side, Verge achieved notable exchange momentum, including new Binance USDC trading pairs, futures trading on Byex, additional USDC spots on MEXC, and listings on XT Exchange. Ecosystem visibility was further boosted through AMAs featuring Vergeās founder (Justin), alongside prominent blockchain projects like Zcash andĀ Casper.
By the end of 2025, Verge had strengthened its core protocol, expanded across numerous chains, increased liquidity and exchange access, improved developer infrastructure, and delivered tangible real-world payment integrationsāāāsolidifying the year as a milestone chapter in Vergeās long-term growth and resilience.
