On-Chain Targeting

Target Wallets by What They Do, Not Who They Are

Interest targeting cannot tell a yield farmer from a tourist. Blockchain-Ads builds DeFi audiences from on-chain behavior: the contracts a wallet touches, how recently and how often.

Swappers

Wallets that traded on Uniswap, Jupiter, Curve, Raydium or any of 50+ DEXs in the last 7, 30 or 90 days. Filter by chain, volume tier and token pair.

Maps to: first swap

Liquidity Providers

Wallets with active LP positions on Uniswap v3, Curve, Balancer or Raydium. Filter by pool, pair, TVL contributed and recency.

Maps to: LP add

Stakers and LST Holders

Wallets staking ETH, SOL or native assets, or holding stETH, rETH, mSOL and other LSTs. Target by protocol, chain and stake size.

Maps to: stake / restake

Lenders and Borrowers

Wallets supplying or borrowing on Aave, Compound, Morpho or Spark. Also targets idle USDC, USDT and DAI holders ready to deploy capital.

Maps to: supply / borrow

Bridgers

Wallets that move assets cross-chain, a strong signal of multi-chain, active users.

Maps to: bridge / connect

Competitor Protocol Users

Target the wallets that interact with a specific contract address. Point a campaign straight at a rival protocol's active users.

Your most valuable segment
Every segment is built from 300+ on-chain intent signals and the Web3 Cookie, then verified again at conversion so you only pay for real users, not airdrop farmers cycling wallets.

Use Cases

DeFi Advertising by Protocol Type

A DEX needs first swaps. A lending market needs deposits. A staking protocol needs validators. Targeting maps to the conversion each protocol type cares about.

Flagship use case

DEX and Aggregator Advertising

Reach wallets with a history of swaps on competing DEXs and aggregators. Optimize for wallet connects and first swaps, not vanity clicks, and attribute every conversion to a transaction. Uniswap, 1inch, Compound and Rubic.Finance run acquisition on Blockchain-Ads.

Lending and Borrowing

Target wallets already supplying or borrowing on lending markets, plus stablecoin holders sitting idle and ready to put capital to work.

Staking and Liquid Staking

Reach holders of major assets and existing LST positions to grow validators, staking pools and liquid staking tokens.

Yield and Vaults

Find active liquidity providers and yield farmers by the pools and vaults they already use, then move them to yours.

Perps and Derivatives

Target wallets trading on perp DEXs and on-chain derivatives, segmented by volume and recency of activity.

Bridges, Cross-Chain and RWA

Reach wallets that bridge between chains or hold tokenized real-world assets, across all 82 supported blockchains.

Through your agency
  • Your agency runs campaigns on Blockchain-Ads inventory with full wallet targeting
  • On-chain attribution and conversion reporting flow through to their dashboards
  • Agency handles creative, strategy and client-side reporting on your behalf
  • Works with any agency — no exclusive partnership required

FAQ

DeFi Advertising Questions Answered

What is DeFi advertising?

DeFi advertising promotes decentralized finance protocols, such as DEXs, lending markets, staking and yield products, to users most likely to interact with them. On Blockchain-Ads, audiences are built from on-chain behavior rather than interests, so campaigns reach wallets that already swap, provide liquidity, stake or lend, with conversions tracked down to the transaction.

How do you target DeFi users?

Blockchain-Ads builds audiences from on-chain activity across 82 blockchains: recent swaps, liquidity provision, staking and liquid staking tokens, lending and borrowing, bridging and interaction with specific smart contracts. You can combine these signals, exclude your own users and target the active wallets of a competing protocol by its contract address.

Do I need a DeFi marketing agency?

It depends on your team. If you already work with an agency, they can run campaigns on Blockchain-Ads and access the same wallet-level targeting and on-chain attribution. If you do not have an agency, the managed service fills that role: a dedicated specialist handles creative, tracking and optimization directly. Either path gives you the same platform, the same inventory and the same conversion proof.

How do you avoid airdrop farmers and bot traffic?

Audiences are filtered for genuine on-chain behavior and verified again at conversion, so budget goes to wallets that actually transact rather than addresses cycled to farm incentives. Impression quality is checked by DoubleVerify, and because conversions are confirmed on-chain with a transaction ID, inflated or bot activity does not get counted as a result.

What conversions can you track for a DeFi protocol?

You define the conversion: wallet connect, first swap, deposit, supply to a lending market, stake, restake or liquidity add. On-chain conversions are reported with the transaction ID and blockchain details so each result can be verified independently. Attribution integrates with Voluum, AppsFlyer and Keitaro.

Where do DeFi ads run?

Across 10,000+ verified publishers and 18+ SSP integrations, including the sites DeFi users rely on such as DeFi Llama and Etherscan, plus the wider open web through display, native, video, push, in-page push, pop and Telegram placements.

Can you target users of a competing protocol?

Yes. Because targeting is based on smart contract interaction, a campaign can be pointed at the wallets that actively use a specific competing protocol, then optimized toward your own conversion event. This is one of the most effective DeFi acquisition strategies on the network.

What does DeFi advertising cost?

Campaigns price on CPM or CPC. The minimum daily budget is $360. Total campaign budgets and pricing are confirmed during verification based on your goals, target GEOs and service level. The threshold reflects a focus on performance budgets where premium inventory, managed service and NEXUS AI optimization are in play.

Is DeFi advertising compliant?

Blockchain-Ads reviews every campaign before access is granted, including offer, GEOs and disclosures. Mainstream platforms restrict or ban most DeFi promotion, so the network provides crypto-native reach and wallet-based targeting without rebuilding campaigns around those limitations. Eligibility still depends on the product and jurisdiction.

Does Blockchain-Ads produce the creatives?

Managed campaigns include banner design, HTML5 creatives, format resizing and angle optimization, built from what already converts with DeFi audiences on the network. Self-serve advertisers can upload their own assets.
