1️⃣ What is Enso (ENSO)?
Enso is a blockchain infrastructure platform aiming for a 'single connection layer' for thousands of different blockchains - where developers only need one integration point to read, write, and interact with any smart contract on any chain. Think of Enso as a 'convenient Web3 community', where instead of each project having to do dozens of separate integrations, Enso provides ready-made 'shortcuts' to make development faster and easier 🎯.
In other words: if Ethereum is a versatile smart contract platform, then Enso is the infrastructure layer supporting all those chains and smart contracts, helping to operate and connect them into a seamless network.
2️⃣ Highlights of the project
🚀 Enso has supported over 100 projects, processing more than 15 billion USD in on-chain payments - demonstrating very fast traction.
📈 Officially entering mainnet and token ENSO deployed on Ethereum & BNB Chain.
💡 The project redefines how to build dApps using the 'shortcuts' mechanism - users or developers can connect with multiple chains with just a few lines of code.
✅ The system has handled large liquidity movements: for example, Enso supported 'migration' > 3.1 billion USD in 3 days - proof of real-world capability.
🔧 Token ENSO has a total supply of 100 million, and in the community round on CoinList, about 4% was sold (~4 million ENSO) with the goal of increasing decentralization.
🔗 Enso is expanding support not only for EVM but also for Move/Solana-type chains - demonstrating the 'omnichain' vision.
3️⃣ Operating model / Key technology
Enso operates as an abstraction layer platform with the main steps:
Developers or users define 'intent' (goal to achieve: swap, lend, migrate liquidity...).
Enso turns that 'intent' into a specific workflow, automatically connecting smart contracts & chains to execute.
Users submit commands, Enso chooses the optimal path - cross-chain - saving time and fees.
Token ENSO is used to pay for actions, participate in network management, and reward contributors (action providers, validators).
The network is gradually opening for the community to write 'shortcuts' and contribute to the ecosystem - enhancing efficiency and rapid scaling.
For example: instead of having to separately integrate Uniswap on Ethereum, Stargate on BNB Chain, and a bridge on Solana, you can just use Enso once to connect all those actions.
4️⃣ Backers & Partners
The Enso project is backed by many large funds and strategic partners such as Polychain Capital, Multicoin Capital, Spartan, Dialectic, Cyberfund... These are reputable names in the blockchain and Web3 infrastructure fields.
Their role is not just to provide capital but also to support strategic building, expand the network, and connect partners so that Enso can develop quickly and sustainably.
5️⃣ Development Roadmap
Stage 0: Building the 'shortcuts' engine and network abstraction layer - allowing developers to quickly create dApps across multiple chains.
Stage 1: Mainnet launch - token ENSO is issued and deployed on Ethereum & BNB Chain.
Stage 2: Expanding support for non-EVM chains (Move, Solana...), developing the developer ecosystem & supporting end users.
Stage 3: More decentralized protocol - opening the core network, allowing the community to contribute shortcuts and participate in governance across the network.
The project is gradually moving towards building a sustainable and open omnichain ecosystem.
6️⃣ Tokenomics & Release Schedule
Total supply of token ENSO: 100 million ENSO.
In the community round: ~4% of total supply (~4 million ENSO) was sold with a fundraising amount of ~5 million USD and a full valuation (FDV) of ~125 million USD.
ENSO is designed for use in the network - charging fees, governance, rewarding contributors of solutions.
The unlock schedule for the team & investors has been predetermined - users should manage vesting risk.
7️⃣ HODLer Airdrop Details / How to Participate
Binance announced project number 52 on HODLer Airdrop - Enso (ENSO)
Binance announced project number 52 on the HODLer Airdrop page - Enso (ENSO), a unified network connecting all blockchains, empowering developers to build configurable applications for millions of users across Web2 and Web3.
Users who staked BNB for Simple Earn products and/or On-Chain Yields from 07:00 on 07/10 to 06:59 on 10/10 will receive ENSO airdrop.
ENSO will be distributed to users' spot wallets at least 1 hour before listing.
Binance will then list ENSO at 16:00 on 14/10 (VN time) and open trading with pairs USDT, USDC, BNB, FDUSD, and TRY. The seed tag will be applied to ENSO.
ENSO will be listed by Binance as a 'seed tag'. This form is used to classify cryptocurrency projects that are typically in the early developmental stage and may not have operational products, also this type of cryptocurrency listing carries high risk.
8️⃣ Summary & Notes
Enso (ENSO) is a very promising project in the Web3 infrastructure field - with multi-chain support, robust abstraction layer technology, and a rapidly growing developer ecosystem. If developed in the right direction, Enso could become the foundational architecture for new-generation omnichain applications.
However, it should be noted:
The project is still on the path of expansion, and the capability and speed of rollout still carry risks.
Tokenomics and unlock schedules can impact short-term prices.
