11 Future-Proof Projects Coming Out of MegaMafia 2.0

Dubbed as “real-time blockchain,” MegaETH is the super scaler network for Ethereum, offering instant transaction settlement with 10 millisecond blocktimes and 100k+ transactions per second.

It’s a blockchain that pushes the levels of scalability and throughput on par with web2 platforms.

MegaMafia is an accelerator program initiated by MegaETH, with the primary goal of fostering and incubating innovative projects on the MegaETH network.

MegaMafia 1.0 was an immense success, with $40 million raised across the 15 projects incubated over the year-long program.

The focus of MegaMafia 1.0 was very much on elevating existing popular crypto products with MegaETH’s infrastructure. Some notable projects include Euphoria (tap to trade derivatives), Noise (perps for social sentiment), and WCM (spot, perps, and lending platform).

MegaMafia 2.0 was then launched to take things to a whole new level, focusing on more creative, “beyond-chain” products, i.e., products that leverage MegaETH’s infrastructure to target a completely new customer base, revolving around creative consumer crypto-style products.

So let’s take a look at what’s been cooking at MegaMafia 2.0.

MegaMafia 2.0 overview

MegaMafia is one of the three pillars of MegaGDP, with the main purpose being to drive ecosystem growth.

The idea is to identify top-tier teams working on apps with the potential to drive high network growth and then have them participate in a year-long program with frequent offsites, getting help from some of the best and brightest minds in the space.

The application period for MegaMafia 2.0 started on April 23, 2025, and will remain open until March 15, 2026. During this period, there will be three offsites and two remote workshops.

Projects will be revealed from this program in three batches, and at the time of writing, two batches of projects have been announced. So let’s go over the ones that stand out.

Blitzo

Blitzo is a gamified payments app.

Details around the product are currently scarce, but the general idea is to change the relationship that people, especially the younger generation, have with money by turning regular transactions into something memeable.

For example, you go to a restaurant and tap your phone to pay the bill at the end of the meal. Now, that payment can be turned into a sort of moment/meme with your friends.

Again, it does sound a little confusing and “out there” since we don’t have all the details yet, but seems like it could turn out to be an interesting consumer product.

Cilium

Cilium is a “real-time motion graph for the future of movement.”

Cilium is a product that doesn’t operate in the realms of us mortal human plebs. It is a product designed for the world of drones, robots, humanoids, and self-driving vehicles.

The idea is that current maps are static and siloed because they’re built for humans. But in a future where autonomy seems to be the norm, a different solution will be necessary.

Cilium is developing a motion graph product that will power these products, enabling real-time footage to make mapping more dynamic and evolve with changes.  

Dorado

We’ve got one for all you degenerate gamblers. Much like the story of El Dorado, Dorado is an onchain casino that will help some of you find your own personal lost city of gold.

The casino allows everyone to be the house through LP’ing and earning a take from the casino players.

At the same time, the platform will offer your favourite games, incentive programs, jackpots, and much more.

Hunch

Hunch is a culture-trading social app.

Hunch takes the prediction market concept and brings it to MegaETH’s real-time blockchain with a touch of added spice.

It’s designed to be more social and fun, featuring an addictive UI with Pokémon-like game mechanics to keep things interesting.

Again, it’s still in its early days, so details are scarce, but it sounds like an interesting one to keep tabs on.

Legend.Trade

Legend treats trading as a multiplayer video game. I mean, the way we trade in crypto, it technically is a video game.

Legend, however, takes this concept to a whole new level with a trading platform that offers trader vs trader battles where you can compete with foes and win trading competitions for rewards. Here, skill matters, not size.

Beyond this, Legend will also have content to keep traders ahead of the curve and also allow tracking of top traders for those who want to learn and copytrade from the best.

Ubitel

Ubitel is an ambitious, yet necessary, product operating in the open data space.

The model works like this: Every device has a TEE inside it, and Ubitel looks to activate it.

Subscribers and hosts on the platform that provide verifiable compute to the open data network get internet access anywhere at any time.

The subscriptions are yield-bearing, and a points program is also expected. Yet another one to add to your watchlist.

Benchmark

Dubbed as “credit layer for real-time markets,” Benchmark is a product built by veterans from companies like BlackRock and Goldman Sachs, bringing institutional-grade risk curation to the world of DeFi.

It’s creating a unified liquidity engine for USDm with isolated lending pools and curated yields. ‍

Brix

Brix is focused on emerging capital markets.

Details about this product are extremely scarce, but based on the available information, Brix will enable a new class of tokenized yield-bearing stablecoins and assets, providing DeFi users with access to yields from emerging markets onchain.

A potentially lucrative product.

Kumbaya

Kumbaya is another product that’s in its infancy.

Judging by the X account, it’s a DEX centred around cult formation, providing users with a platform to launch and trade culture. A fast DEX with a clean UX and deep liquidity.

Rocket

Rocket is pioneering the concept of redistribution markets.

Rocket offers users a different way to speculate on price. Calls can be made on any crypto price feed.

Users can call any price and win from any move on Rocket’s mobile app.

It sounds like an interesting new primitive, but we will have to wait and see what redistribution markets actually look like.

Stomp

Stomp is a PvP monster game that’s coming soon on MegaETH.

Players will be able to collect items, strategize, and compete in real-time for rewards.

By leveraging MegaETH’s infrastructure, you can be assured that Stomp’s gaming experience is going to be top-notch.

What does this mean for MegaETH?

If you read between the lines, there’s a very clear theme emerging here.

MegaMafia 1.0 was very much about laying the foundation for the MegaETH ecosystem.

It was mainly based around so-called “crypto native” products. It essentially covered everything under the DeFi, NFT, trading, and yield-oriented umbrella.

These products tend to be foundational components of any successful ecosystem, owing to their composability - they serve as liquidity pillars for numerous other applications to build upon.

With the base set, MegaMafia 2.0 has a very clear focus on creative consumer-facing products. Things that go beyond the typical hyper-financialization we see in crypto, to those with more cultural resonance. Stuff that can attract an audience that may not interact with crypto on a day-to-day basis.

So the idea is clear.

Leverage MegaETH’s highly scalable real-time blockchain infrastructure to give developers the ability to abstract away technical complexity and give users a more web 2-like experience while working closely with teams to ensure the MegaETH ecosystem is dotted with very high-quality applications.

The MegaETH team is strategically positioning its ecosystem to be amongst the top drivers of mainstream crypto adoption.

It’s a meticulous, long-term approach filled with innovation and incentive alignment, and one that we believe is likely to bear fruit in the near future.

It’s an ecosystem worth keeping your eyes on.
