Galxe, a leading quest and reward platform in the Web3 sector, announced plans to discontinue its core products, including Galxe Quest, Galxe ID, and Galxe Passport, as part of a strategic refocus on its proprietary Layer 1 blockchain, Gravity.
Service Discontinuation Timeline
After serving more than 36 million users and collaborating with over 7,700 Web3 projects in the past five years, Galxe will halt the development of new campaigns. Users can continue to participate in existing campaigns until December 5, with the final date to claim outstanding rewards set for December 15. Following these deadlines, the Galxe website will transition to read-only mode, effectively ending campaign and reward services for its user base.
The decision represents a turning point for the company, which gained widespread recognition for facilitating campaigns that helped blockchain projects grow and engage their communities through quest and incentive mechanisms.
Galxe management highlighted that: “Over the past five-plus years, we’ve helped pioneer Web3 questing and given projects new ways to connect with users and build communities. We’ve served 36 million…”
While Galxe is dissolving its community rewards infrastructure, the company clarified that operations will continue under the Gravity brand. Its native token, G, will remain unaffected. The shift marks the company’s move from running user-focused community campaigns toward prioritizing blockchain infrastructure through the Gravity network.
Recent Developments in Identity Verification
The announcement follows closely on the heels of Galxe’s rollout of Passport V3, an upgraded identity verification service launched in August 2026. The new version was integrated with third-party providers Transak and Banxa, connecting over one million verified Galxe Passport holders to a broad spectrum of Web3 applications and financial services.
Enhanced features were designed to offer secure on- and off-ramp cryptocurrency services and support for regulated real-world asset platforms, expanding the utility of Galxe Passport beyond access to reward campaigns and into compliance and financial services for digital assets.
Mini dictionary: Transak and Banxa are third-party payment gateways that facilitate fiat-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat transactions. These integrations enable users to more easily convert between cryptocurrencies and traditional currencies, supporting seamless entry and exit from the Web3 ecosystem.
Projects and applications relying on Galxe’s identity verification tools are expected to be impacted by the shutdown, and both users and developers may need to seek alternative solutions as the platform’s discontinuation deadlines approach.
Strategic Shift to Gravity Blockchain
The move toward Gravity marks a significant change in Galxe’s operational strategy. Rather than maintain separate quest, identity, and rewards services, Galxe will consolidate its resources under the Gravity Layer 1 blockchain, which it describes as its next major development focus.
Since its inception, Galxe has provided blockchain projects with tools for user acquisition, rewards distribution, and campaign management, solidifying its position as a major platform for community growth in Web3.
The closure of Galxe’s established services is expected to affect millions of users and hundreds of projects. However, executives maintain that continued investment in Gravity signals an ongoing commitment to blockchain technology.
The company emphasized that the G token will remain functional and that Galxe’s future now hinges on the expansion and adoption of the Gravity blockchain.
Current users have been urged to complete their participation in ongoing campaigns and claim all outstanding rewards ahead of the respective December deadlines. Looking ahead, the success of the Galxe ecosystem will largely depend on the adoption and growth of Gravity’s Layer 1 infrastructure.
