Case Studies
Case Study 1 — Growth Strategy for a Bitcoin Decentralized Data Infrastructure
-
Vision
GeniiData set out to become the go-to API infrastructure provider for developers building on-chain apps.
The mission: provide seamless access to real-time blockchain data while building community trust and product demand.
But in a market saturated with technical solutions and low engagement, standing out required more than just product — it needed a movement. -
The Roadblock
Despite a solid technical foundation, GeniiData lacked awareness, developer adoption, and inbound traction.
Without a well-defined go-to-market strategy, they struggled to build user momentum, attract early partners, or convert technical interest into ecosystem involvement. -
Our Involvement
We partnered with GeniiData as growth and community operators:
- Refined the brand story and key differentiators, repositioning GeniiData from “another crypto infra tool” to “the missing data layer for Web3 builders.”
- Built organic engagement loops through niche X threads, developer incentives, and high-signal feedback cycles.
- Secured integrations with early-stage protocols and DAOs, establishing GeniiData as a core infra component in their stack.
- Ran educational campaigns and small-scale grants to bring in high-quality builders and feedback.

Case Study 2 — Scaling Ecosystem Growth for Energi and GonnaMakeIt Marketplace
-
The Big Bet
Energi aimed to become a leading blockchain ecosystem with a self-sustaining treasury and DeFi capabilities.
GonnaMakeIt, its NFT marketplace arm, needed to establish itself as a creator-first platform.
Both needed attention, users, and trust — in a bear market. -
The Bottleneck
Energi and GonnaMakeIt were facing low visibility and stagnant user growth.
Marketing was fragmented, there was no clear channel strategy, and partnerships were limited.
The teams needed a fresh go-to-market strategy that wouldn’t just get eyes — it had to bring in real users, creators, and liquidity. -
Our Strategy
Our multi-faceted BD and growth execution included:
- Worked with crypto-native KOLs and niche creators to drive awareness around Energi’s security stack and the NFT marketplace’s creator tools.
- Built tailored campaigns to onboard artists to GonnaMakeIt—prioritizing long-term relationships, not just mint-and-go behavior.
- Led organic X (Twitter) growth for both brands through high-context threads, storytelling, and direct community engagement.
- Secured listings and integrations with NFT analytics platforms and wallets, increasing exposure and discovery.
- Worked with crypto-native KOLs and niche creators to drive awareness around Energi’s security stack and the NFT marketplace’s creator tools.
-
Outcome
- GonnaMakeIt saw a 3x increase in active creator listings within 45 days.
- Energi reached millions of impressions monthly via coordinated content and community efforts.
- Created inbound interest from ecosystem partners and cross-chain communities looking to collaborate.
- GonnaMakeIt saw a 3x increase in active creator listings within 45 days.

Long-Term Upside
These weren’t just short-term growth spikes— they created pathways for long-term sustainability and user retention.
The narrative was no longer “another marketplace” or “another chain,” but platforms with depth, utility, and a growing community of believers.
