UXLINK: "Real-World Social" in the Wild Evolution of Web3

Following the latest in-depth report from Cointelegraph titled "Web3 Reality Check: Which Metaverse Tracks Are Truly Landing?" (August 18, 2025), the entire Web3 ecosystem is undergoing a critical self-reflection. The article points out that the daily active wallets have stabilized at around 24 million; there has been a structural shift in on-chain activities — gaming has surpassed 20%, while DeFi has dropped below 19%; and the "other" categories such as AI, RWA, DePIN have captured a staggering 58% of Gas consumption. Social DApps (including SocialFi) are emerging as the "new stars" of this transition, with AI integration significantly increasing user stickiness. Against this backdrop, UXLINK has become the most representative case of the SocialFi track: it integrates social infrastructure with AI, bridging Web2 familiarity with Web3 utility. This article will examine whether UXLINK truly "delivers" to an increasingly mature market based on performance, adoption, and alignment with macro trends.

1. Project Positioning and Core Narrative  

UXLINK positions itself as Web3's "social growth layer," lowering the adoption barrier through minimal onboarding, decentralized identity management, and AI-driven network effects. The project initially landed in the form of a Telegram mini-program, allowing users to establish verifiable, bidirectional social relationships and directly convert these relationships into on-chain value. Unlike traditional social platforms, UXLINK emphasizes real-world relationships rather than "follower count," turning the social graph into composable assets for DApps, communities, and projects to use on demand.

Key Features:  

· AI Precision Matching: The algorithm recommends relevant DApps, communities, and opportunities to users without the need for a centralized gatekeeper.

· Decentralized Identity: Users own their data and identity, with a single ID interoperable across chains.

· SocialFi Suite: Embedded referral bonuses, airdrop mechanisms, and PayFi (offline payments with a debit card bound to Web3 tokens).

· Ecosystem Expansion: Integrated with 600+ communities, advancing towards multi-chain, high security, and global iteration.

By mid-2025, UXLINK has surpassed 54 million registered users, considered the core infrastructure for "bringing the next billion people into Web3," with user experience approaching that of Web2 social media.

2. Adoption and On-Chain Data: Riding the Social Wave  

The Cointelegraph article emphasizes that Social and AI DApps are rapidly gaining traction in DeFi as it cools down. UXLINK is a prime example of this trend: driven by a social graph to achieve organic growth, with daily active users steadily rising, especially leveraging the Telegram gateway to lower the barrier for non-crypto-native users.

· By Q2 2025, the overall network's wallet daily active users plateaued at 24 million, while UXLINK contributed incrementally to social DApps with its "wallet-native relationship + intent-aware edge," without resorting to artificial inflation.

· Regarding Gas data, the "Other" category (including AI social tools) accounts for 58%, and UXLINK's on-chain interactions—such as AI recommendations and decentralized proofs—directly benefit from this Gas windfall: each relationship verification and cross-DApp link incurs genuine consumption.

· Community feedback: Users of the X platform claim that it helped projects establish a "real audience," with growth driven by two-way relationships rather than zombie followers. Partnerships with OKX and several Web3 funding platforms further amplify user acquisition and retention tools.

III. Price and Market Realization  

The article's assessment of price performance shows differentiation: smart contract platform tokens +142%, DeFi +77%, AI tokens -25%. The UXLINK token (UXLINK) celebrated its Token Generation Event (TGE) one-year anniversary on July 18, 2025, amid headwinds in the AI sector, yet still above the initial price. The technical chart is catalyzed by partnership and innovation news, with a year-end target average price of $0.4467.

Unlike many AI concept tokens, UXLINK's core value lies in "utility" rather than "speculation":  

· Governance rights  

· Staking for social rewards  

· PayFi expansion (2025–2026 roadmap)

This aligns closely with the call for "real-world applications"—UXLINK has created a positive feedback loop by monetizing a social graph and on-chain growth engine, securing a place in the sustainable economic model of SocialFi.

IV. Challenges and Future  

Despite prominent highlights, UXLINK still needs to:  

· Strengthen resistance to Sybil attacks and privacy protection in ZK proofs;  

· Addressing the global regulatory red line that may be triggered by social data processing.

The roadmap indicates that its next phase will focus on AI model upgrades, security reinforcement, and global localization. In an "Reality-Checked" ecosystem, UXLINK replaces hollow narratives with verifiable, user-centric connections, which will truly catalyze mainstream adoption. As SocialFi continues to evolve, the definition of "delivery" will no longer be just data but scalable, meaningful utility—UXLINK is already running on this path.
