Oakchain has made significant progress in incorporating web3 functionalities, focusing on enhancing user experience with innovative features such as auto wallet creation on signup using the Near SDK. A notable highlight is the development of the Oaknut reward, which includes claims, distribution, spending, and tipping mechanisms. Gamification strategies were also implemented to drive engagement, rewarding users for activities like posting content, participating in courses, and interacting with the community.

Further, Oakchain embarked on an ambitious plan to differentiate content storage, opting for blockchain storage for course material to leverage its security and transparency while maintaining web2 solutions for regular posts. The introduction of the Oak wallet as a storage solution for Oaknuts signifies Oakchain’s dedication to creating a seamless user experience within the web3 space.
