There is a 'blind spot' in the Web3 data ecosystem: individual users holding 'niche public chain (like Aptos) GameFi item data' want to monetize but cannot find demanders; a three-person small team wants to do 'Web3 creator fan interaction analysis' but faces a lack of connections for such niche data services; offline handmade studios want to provide benefits to customers holding 'niche cultural and creative NFTs' but lack tools to check such obscure NFTs—'niche demand = no one cares', leaving a large number of specialized and segmented data needs outside the ecosystem. Chainbase, as a decentralized data infrastructure, is creating a 'niche service window' through 'niche data adaptation + unique scenario services', allowing obscure data to earn $C and providing solutions for unique demands, giving niche roles dedicated space.
Its core breakthrough is expanding the ecological limitation of 'only serving mainstream data' to 'covering niche segmented demands', not allowing 'obscure' to become a reason for neglect. On the technical level, Chainbase has built a 'niche data service hub': targeting individual users, the hub launched the 'niche data monetization pool'—specifically recording data demands from niche public chains (Aptos, Sui) and vertical fields (Web3 social, on-chain public welfare). Even if there is only 'a record of holding items from a certain niche GameFi' or 'fan interaction data from a Web3 social platform', it can match with those in need of 'segmented samples' (such as teams researching niche public chains or projects developing vertical field tools), earning 8-15 C per authorization. Chengdu player Xiao Lu, who holds a rare item from a certain niche GameFi on the Aptos chain, previously found no one interested in the data, but now earns 300 C monthly by authorizing two research teams; for small and medium projects, the hub developed the 'niche service matching channel'—even if the project only does 'Web3 creator data tracking' or 'on-chain public welfare donation analysis' as segmented services, it can showcase its capabilities in the channel and connect with clients with similar demands. A two-person Web3 creator tool team used the channel to receive orders from 12 niche cultural brands, helping the brands analyze fan interaction data on-chain, achieving a monthly income of 20,000 C; for offline unique merchants, the hub designed the 'niche NFT query tool'—supporting queries for over 50 niche NFT series (such as independent designer NFTs, local cultural and creative NFTs). Merchants pay 10 C to open a one-month usage right. A handmade studio in Beijing used it and offered customized handmade products to eight customers holding local cultural and creative NFTs, attracting them to become long-term members.
When the ecosystem lands, Chainbase does not prioritize 'mainstream', but focuses on 'niche pain points' for precise services. For individual users, it launched the 'niche demand radar'—real-time push notifications for 'newly launched niche data demands' (such as 'a certain team acquiring Sui chain Web3 social data, urgent demand'), and marks the 'demand scarcity level' (such as 'niche demand, less competition, high returns'). Currently, 2.95 million users are following the radar, and the monetization rate of niche data has increased by 85%; for small and medium projects, it introduced the 'niche service support package'—including 'free trial rights for niche data sources', 'service promotion slots', and 'customer matchmaking event tickets'. A three-person on-chain public welfare data team connected with five public welfare organizations through the support package, helping them analyze the on-chain behavior of donors, transforming the project from 'unknown' to a 'benchmark in a niche area'; for offline unique merchants, it launched the 'niche scenario cooperation plan'—providing merchants with free 'niche NFT event planning solutions' (such as 'enjoying handmade customization discounts with independent designer NFTs'), and subsidizing five $C tool opening fees. Recently, it helped a pottery studio in Hangzhou host an event, attracting 25 niche NFT holders to the store in three days, with custom order growth of 40%. Even more considerate, Chainbase also developed the 'niche value assessment tool', where users can input 'data type (e.g., 'Aptos chain GameFi items')' and 'service area (e.g., 'Web3 creator analysis')' to calculate 'approximately how much can be earned and how many orders can be received', letting niche participants clearly understand their value.
In the long run, its value lies in 'filling the niche gaps in the Web3 data ecosystem with a 'niche window'', allowing every niche demand to be seen and met. Currently, Chainbase has 2.95 million individual users and 135,000 small and medium cooperative projects/merchants solving demands through the niche window. The gathering of these 'niche roles' has formed a unique 'segmented data market'—previously, the Web3 data ecosystem only covered 30% of mainstream demands, but now it can cover 70% of segmented demands, including previously blank areas such as Web3 social, on-chain public welfare, and niche public chains. Recently, the project also reached a cooperation with Southeast Asia's niche Web3 community to integrate the 'niche service window' locally, helping Southeast Asia's niche creators and unique merchants monetize with obscure data, expecting to add 1.95 million individual users. The 'niche attribute' of the C token is also being strengthened: individuals can accumulate and exchange C earned from niche data for 'high scarcity task qualifications'; niche projects can enjoy fee reductions when using C for orders; and staking C allows niche nodes to have priority access to niche demand matching opportunities. This design keeps the $C staking rate stable at 99%, with daily trading volume increasing by 130%.
From helping players earn extra income with niche GameFi data, to enabling small teams to establish themselves through specialized services, and then to attracting customers to handmade studios with unique NFTs, Chainbase is transforming the 'marginal demand' of the Web3 data ecosystem into 'core value' through a 'niche service window'. As more niche roles find their place, this 'segmentation-friendly' data platform may turn 'niche markets can also be big markets' into a new consensus in the Web3 ecosystem, allowing data to genuinely cover every niche area and every unique role.
