13 Million Onchain Transactions: Doma Testnet’s Massive Summer

13 Million Onchain Transactions: Doma Testnet’s Massive Summer

By Mark Trang (CMO, D3)

Doma’s testnet went live in late-June, bringing the first wave of DomainFi features and users onchain. In the past two months, the ecosystem has seen a dramatic uptick in builders, traders, and investors experimenting with tokenized domains. Community traction has been strong, with countless number of interactions, testnet transactions, and new members joining the movement.

Stats To Date:

  • Onboarded 120,000+ testnet users
  • Minted 750,000+ synthetic domains
  • Processed 13M+ total transactions on Doma Chain

Let’s take a look at what we’ve built so far, and the momentum the testnet has generated in just two short months.

Nearly 10x Growth: 759,098 Domains Tokenized on Doma Testnet

#1 Total Domains Tokenized

Between July and August, the total number of domains tokenized on the Doma testnet went up from 79K to 730K. As of writing a total of 759,098 tokens have been tokenized on Doma. Interest is high and our builders are convinced about the power of tokenized domains.

#2 Number of Contracts On-Chain

The chart above shows the number of contracts on Doma.The number of contracts rose from 314 on July 1 to 1512 on September 1. That’s an almost 400% rise in a two month period. Currently, the number of contracts on Doma stands at 1603.

Initiatives Driving Developer Innovation

Beyond the testnet metrics, Doma is investing directly into its builder community, creating programs that fuel developer innovation and expand what’s possible with tokenized domains.

Doma Forge

Announced in June with testnet, Doma Forge is a builder program designed to fuel the next generation of DomainFi app innovation. The Forge program provides a $1M USDC grant pool for developers who are looking to build on Doma. Builders gain access to ecosystem funding, direct collaboration with DomainFi technologists, and the opportunity to join our Developer-in-Residence program, receiving mentorship and hands-on support from Doma’s core engineering team.

DomainFi Hackathon on Dorahacks

Doma also launched the DomainFi Challenge, its first global hackathon on the DoraHacks platform, with $50,000 in USDC in prizes and automatic consideration for Forge grants from a $1M pool. Developers worldwide are invited to build dApps that push the boundaries of DomainFi using Doma’s testnet and protocol features. Running from August 9 to September 12, 2025, the hackathon also includes optional Ambassador Challenges with extra rewards, mentorship, and pathways into the Doma ecosystem.

What’s Coming Next

Our mission is clear: to bring more liquidity and utility to domains through the power of Web3. And the best way to shape that future is by building it together. Now’s the time to get involved:

- Explore the Doma Testnet → try tokenizing and experimenting with domains on-chain
- Join our community on Discord → connect with 125k+ members shaping DomainFi
- Apply to Doma Forge → developers can access a $1M USDC grant pool and mentorship
- Compete in the DomainFi Hackathon → build on Doma in the DomainFi Challenge with $50k in prizes!

Be part of the movement, the future of DomainFi is being built now. For more information on how Doma works, checkout our docs and visit our website.
