Celebrate 7 Years of Ontology with Trading, Staking, and Creator Campaigns

It’s been seven years since the Ontology blockchain first launched. That’s two full crypto market cycles, a few thousand product pivots across the industry, and more rebrands than anyone cares to count. But here we are, and we’re still building, still shipping, and still running on the same principles that started this whole thing: decentralized identity, user-first privacy, and no-nonsense staking rewards.

To mark the milestone, we’re launching a multi-pronged campaign packed with rewards, quests, and real-world utility. Whether you’re a trader, staker, or just someone who likes airdrops, there’s something for you.

🛠 Campaign Breakdown: Utility, Incentives, and a Little Chaos

Let’s break it down. We’re not just throwing confetti here. Every piece of this campaign is meant to showcase how ONT and ONG actually work. These tokens aren’t just as assets, they are part of the core infrastructure in a better Web3.

🌍 Wide World x Ontology: Create. Share. Win.

We didn’t forget the creatives — join in the fun here.

From June 18th

• $600 prize pool
• Fire up WW AI, create something themed for ONT
• Drop your creation under our Wide World campaign tweet

Twelve winners get $50 each. Think of it as your moment to flex, and possibly stack some ONG while you’re at it.

🟢 Trade Smarter with ONT & ONG

This is the main show: a 4-week campaign rolling out inside the ONTO Wallet

• From June 30th
• $3,000 in ONG up for grabs
• Top 50 traders by volume get a cut of $2,500
• Random 100 eligible wallets win $5 each
• All you need: trade at least $10 worth on Ontology

>>>> Trade via ONTO <<<<

Want to boost your odds? Trade ONT pairs, use ONG for gas, hold it for 3+ days, or take the quiz on how staking ONT earns you ONG. Yes, a quiz. We’re not above pop quizzes if it gets people to learn something.

🔵 Stake to Win

If trading’s not your thing, maybe staking is.

• $2,000 in ONG rewards
• Stake into Round 258 (dropping ~ June 28th)
• 20 random stakers will each get $100 (in ONG, of course).

Because let’s be honest, staking ONT is still one of the most under-hyped moves in Web3. You earn ONG passively, contribute to governance, and now you might get a surprise bonus.

Your early support helped shape the network — this is our way of saying thank you!

🧠 Why It Matters

Ontology has spent seven years shipping tech, most projects are still theorizing about. Decentralized Identity (DID). Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI). Zero Knowledge Proofs. Real-world partnerships. Our gas fees? Still a joke, in a good way. And we’re laser-focused on the user owning their data, their keys, and their value.
