Gnosis is a decentralized platform built on Ethereum, primarily focused on prediction markets, decentralized finance, and secure digital asset management through its multi-signature wallet, Gnosis Safe.
Launched by Martin Köppelmann, Friederike Ernst, and Stefan George in 2015 as a prediction market platform on the Ethereum blockchain, Gnosis has since expanded into a broader blockchain infrastructure ecosystem.
Gnosis has become a major player in the blockchain industry, with 300,000+ validators, it is one of the largest projects to come out of the Ethereum network. The native token of the ecosystem, Gnosis GNO, peaked at $644 in November 2021. By April 2024, Gnosis surpassed 200 million transactions.
“Surpassing 200 million transactions underscores the growing adoption and practical application of Gnosis Chain, affirming our path towards realizing Gnosis 3.0 which aims to bridge the gap between blockchain technology and practical, everyday applications for the masses,” Gnosis co-founder Martin Koppelman said in a statement at the time.
The Gnosis ecosystem includes:
