The Web3 data world is like a 'mapless maze': college students who just entered the space want to earn $C by using on-chain data but are intimidated by terms like 'authorization permissions' and 'data masking'; a three-person team developing a GameFi project spent half a day looking at tutorials on 'cross-chain data interfaces and API calls' but still didn't know how to obtain player data; an offline stationery store owner wanted to try Web3 membership but gave up upon hearing they needed to 'connect a wallet and parse on-chain information'—'it's too hard to start and there's no one to guide me', which has become the biggest hurdle for newcomers and small teams entering the Web3 data ecosystem. As a decentralized data infrastructure, Chainbase is creating a 'zero-threshold navigator' using 'term translation + foolproof operation + real-time guidance', enabling novices to monetize data in 3 minutes and small projects to complete data access in one day, thoroughly breaking the deadlock of 'newbies being afraid to touch it'.
Its core capability is to turn 'professional data operations' into something 'as simple as using WeChat', rather than filtering users with technical jargon. On the technical side, Chainbase launched the 'Data Newbie Navigation System': for individual newcomers, the system breaks down complex operations into a 'three-step foolproof process'—Step one: 'Choose a task' (the page labels task rewards as 'earn milk tea money' or 'earn phone credit', without needing to read professional descriptions), Step two: 'Authorize data' (automatically hides sensitive information, only displaying 'the parts that need to be shown to the project', with an easy-to-understand explanation of 'why authorization is needed'), Step three: 'Claim C' (earnings arrive in real-time, with a popup notification 'You've got it! You can exchange it for snacks'). Recently graduated Xiao Zhang earned 5 C on his first use following the guidance, saying 'I didn't need to look up any tutorials, just click according to the prompts, it's easier than online shopping'; for small project teams, the system developed a 'one-click data plugin'—no coding required, just drag the plugin into the DApp backend, select 'the chain to check (e.g., Ethereum, BNB Chain)' and 'the data needed (e.g., player login times, NFT holdings)', and integration can be completed in 1 minute. A 3-person GameFi team used it and finished their originally planned 3-day data module in just 1 hour, saving on hiring technical outsourcing; for offline merchants, the system designed a 'scan-to-use tool'—merchants can scan Chainbase's 'data query code' with their phones, input the customer's wallet address (customers can enter it themselves to protect privacy), and in 1 second, it can display 'whether they hold the brand's NFT or if they can enjoy discounts', with operation as simple as scanning a health code. A stationery store owner in Beijing learned it in one use, saying 'I don't need to understand blockchain, I just need to give customers discounts.'
When landing in the ecosystem, Chainbase does not engage in 'elite screening' but focuses on 'pain points for beginners' to provide 'nanny-style support.' For individual newcomers, we launched the 'Data Beginner Classroom' - pushing out 1 piece of '1-minute knowledge' daily (such as 'What is data masking? It's like blurring your wallet address' and 'How to spend C? It can be exchanged for milk tea or phone credit'). We also set up a 'Newbie Q&A Group' where customer service answers questions in real-time like 'Will my data be misused after authorization?' and 'How to check how much C I've earned?'. Currently, 1.35 million novice users have joined the classroom, and the data authorization conversion rate has increased by 75%. For small project teams, we launched the 'Newbie Support Package' - which includes '1-on-1 technical guidance (remote help with plugins)', '100 C data call quota (free trial)', and 'Beginner's operation manual (step-by-step with images, like a DIY tutorial)'. A team of 5 working on a DeFi tool completed cross-chain data access in just 2 days by using the support package, and within the first month, their user count surpassed 10,000. For offline merchants, we started the 'Newbie Store Owner Accompaniment Program' - pairing merchants with 'dedicated guidance staff' from 'how to generate a query code' to 'how to use data for promotions', providing full phone and video support. Recently, we helped a campus stationery store conduct an 'NFT membership discount event' that attracted over 200 students in 3 days, increasing sales by 60%. Recently, Chainbase also launched the 'Newbie Achievement System', where newcomers can earn C rewards for completing tasks like 'first data authorization' and 'learning to check earnings', accumulating a sense of achievement like playing a game, further reducing entry barriers.
In the long run, its value lies in 'using zero-threshold to break the circle of the Web3 data ecosystem'—no longer just serving a professional group that understands technology, but allowing students, small business owners, and small teams to participate. Currently, Chainbase has 1.35 million individual novice users and 55,000 small projects/merchants. The addition of these 'non-professional roles' brings the demand for data closer to everyday life (like 'students earning pocket money' and 'small stores attracting customers') and drives Chainbase's tools to become simpler (like the recently added 'voice navigation operation', where novices can complete tasks by following voice prompts). Recently, the project also partnered with the Web3 newcomer community 'Web3 Starter Camp' to integrate the 'navigation system' into community tutorials, which is expected to add 600,000 novice users. The 'newcomer-friendliness' of the C token is also being strengthened: newcomers can directly exchange the C they earn for daily necessities (snacks, milk tea, phone credit) on partner platforms, without needing to understand 'withdrawals or trading'; small projects can pay data fees with C, enjoying a 50% discount during the newcomer period, which has increased the circulation of C among novices by 60%, with a staking rate stabilizing at 82%.
From helping college students earn pocket money for milk tea in 3 minutes to teaching a small stationery store how to use data for promotions in one day, Chainbase is opening the door to the Web3 data ecosystem with the 'zero-threshold navigator'. With more newcomers and small players joining, this 'democratized data platform' may transform Web3 data from a 'game for specialized circles' into something ordinary people can easily participate in, truly achieving the 'universalization' of the data ecosystem.
