October Monthly Stars
For October, we reviewed dozens of eligible projects and in the end shortlisted these 11 projects based on their performance across multiple metrics, including transaction volume, active users, total transactions, and more. More importantly, MVB reviewed their security audit status, product innovation level, development activity, and community engagement. We want to identify the projects dedicated to their users and mission, innovating and providing a top-class user experience.
