Gnosis Launches Industry-Leading Rewards Program, Enhancing and Driving Gnosis Pay User Adoption
- The new rewards program will offer GNO holders four tiers of cashback rewards on Gnosis Pay transactions based on the amount of GNO that they hold within their Gnosis Pay Safe account
LONDON, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Gnosis, the architects of the fully EVM-compatible Layer-1 Gnosis Chain, announces the launch of an industry-leading rewards program designed to benefit GNO holders, accelerate the mainstream adoption of crypto payments, and generate further stakeholder engagement on the network.
Following the recent approval of GIP-110 Snapshot (full GIP here), the GnosisDAO will create and fund a rewards program that will offer cashback to users of Gnosis Pay, the company building rails for the next generation of banking infrastructure.
Gnosis Pay account holders who hold GNO in their Gnosis Pay Safe accounts and who satisfy the eligibility criteria set out in the GIP will receive cashback on purchases made with their Gnosis Pay Card, incentivising paying with crypto and rewarding GNO holders.
Friederike Ernst, Co-Founder of Gnosis and Gnosis Pay, said, “We’ve been working hard to elevate and enhance Gnosis Pay to prepare its functionality for mass adoption. Building on last year’s growth of Gnosis Chain, the rewards program will bootstrap user engagement without significant costs to the DAO. More importantly, it’s also designed to attract new sticky users through a suite of products, with Gnosis Pay Card being the first. This is another step forward in realising the Gnosis 3.0 thesis, aimed at bridging the gap between blockchain technology and practical, everyday applications for the masses.”
To operate the rewards program, the GnosisDAO has allocated a pool of 10K GNO, offers the following four tiers of cashback to users who have GNO in their Gnosis Pay Safe account:
- ≥0.1 GNO: 1%
- ≥1 GNO: 2%
- ≥10 GNO: 3%
- ≥100 GNO: 4%
Users’ cashback percentage will scale between tiers but will be capped at 4%. For example, holding 5.5 GNO will earn a 2.5% cashback. There is also an extra 1% cashback available for holders of the Gnosis Pay OG NFT. Cashbacks are available on a maximum monthly spending limit of EUR 20K, USD 22K, and GBP 18K.
Users do not need to do anything to claim the cashback as rewards will be automatically distributed weekly, five to twelve days after they make a card payment. The cashback percentage users receive will be calculated based on the minimum amount of GNO held in their Gnosis Pay Safe accounts during the seven days leading up to that payment.
All rewards will be measured in the dollar value of the transaction before being distributed back to the user in GNO. The amount of GNO rewards that users receive will be based on the rate of the currency pair (USD/GNO) at the time of distribution. This process will be managed by karpatkey, leaders in Web3 treasury management who will be responsible for tracking, determining, and distributing the rewards to users.
Alongside the launch of the rewards program, Gnosis Pay has also been working on key improvements to its UX, continuously evolving to support innovative Web3 technology and help enhance user experience. Set to be unveiled in the coming months, these new updates and features will boost Gnosis Pay’s capabilities for mass adoption.

Bybit Introduces BOB to P2P: Bolivian Traders Can Now Buy, Sell in Local Currency and Earn Commissions
DUBAI, UAE, May 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has expanded its peer-to-peer (P2P) platform to support the Bolivian Bolíviano (BOB), enabling users in Bolivia to buy and sell crypto with their national currency for the first time on the platform.
In addition to enhancing local access to digital assets, Bybit is launching a new merchant program that invites users to list BOB trading ads and earn generous bi-weekly commissions. High-performing merchants can earn up to 400 USDT every two weeks, with added incentives for those listing in multiple fiat currencies.
“Expanding our P2P platform to include BOB is a reflection of our dedication to financial inclusion and local empowerment,” said Mazurka Zeng, Head of Fiat at Bybit. “We’re proud to offer Bolivian users more ways to access crypto markets while also opening the door to new opportunities”.
Bybit P2P merchants receive tailored support, including 1-to-1 customer service and faster appeal resolutions. To qualify for rewards, merchants must maintain active listings for a specified number of hours each week and meet trading volume and order count targets. Performance is reviewed every two weeks, and rewards are distributed through the Rewards Hub.
This launch represents another step in Bybit’s ongoing commitment to bring crypto access and earning potential to communities around the world through localized, user-friendly P2P services.
Bybit is actively expanding in the LATAM market and has seen a consistent rise in user requests from Bolivia to support the Boliviano (BOB) on its P2P platform. As crypto adoption continues to grow across the region, adding BOB would enhance accessibility for local users and empower them to engage more easily with the digital asset economy.

VICTORIA, Seychelles, May 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MEXC, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has released its April 2025 trading highlights, showcasing impressive results in token performance, early listing advantages, and community-driven events like airdrops.
Key Takeaways:

According to the report, MEXC listed 160 new tokens in April, a 16.79% increase compared to March. This increase was driven by surging user interest in sectors such as Meme coins, GameFi, AI, and DePIN. This expansion of early-access opportunities reflects MEXC’s agile listing strategy and commitment to supporting new niches and communities.
Top New Listings Deliver 832% Average Peak Returns
MEXC’s strategic approach to listings paid off, with the top 10 tokens achieving an average all-time high return of 832.33%. HOUSE led the pack, posting a remarkable +3830.90% gain, followed by SEED (+952.63%) and TROLLSOL (+831.31%). These high performers span ecosystems including Solana, Sui, BSC, Ethereum, and Babylon.
