Summary

Atlas is a Canton-native wallet activity and user acquisition platform that gives Canton projects a shared, neutral layer for activity-based targeting, campaign delivery, and retention measurement. Instead of each project running isolated whitelists and quests, Atlas scores wallets based on real DeFi behavior and matches users to relevant Canton project offers. The platform launches in two milestones: a Canton pilot with scoring and project portal, followed by cross-chain wallet support to bring proven DeFi users from other networks into Canton.

Notes for Reviewers

The Atlas team operates Canton Army (14.5K X followers, 4M+ impressions) and Canton News (1.2k followers, 16K+ website visitors in six weeks), giving Atlas immediate distribution into a Canton-specific audience from day one.

Pilot agreements or active interest confirmed across 20+ Canton projects including Rho Labs, EQ Market, Send, Cenote, Raven, Edel, Rapid Chain, ACME, Alpend, OneSwap, Temple, Tradecraft, EA Finance, Cantex, HANDL, and Nuxaris.

Champion is currently being confirmed.

The scoring engine and anti-abuse logic will remain private to protect system integrity, but documentation, onboarding guides, scoring methodology, and integration examples will be publicly available as common-good outputs.
