Gnosis Ecosystem

Last updated: April 2026

Overview​

The Gnosis ecosystem includes the products built under Gnosis, independent projects that run on Gnosis Chain, and partners who integrate with Gnosis products or standards. This page groups them by relationship, not by category alone, so it is clear how each project sits relative to Gnosis.

For live TVL, validator counts, and transaction metrics, see DeFiLlama and GnosisScan.

Gnosis-Native Products​

Products built and operated under Gnosis, the branded house:

  • Gnosis Chain — community-owned EVM L1. Chain ID 100. Native gas token xDAI (USD-pegged, USDS-backed). Shutterized mempool via Shutter Network.
  • Safe — smart-account infrastructure securing $100B+. Independently governed (SafeDAO) but deeply integrated across the Gnosis stack.
  • CoW Protocol — batch-auction DEX with MEV protection. Powers CoW Swap and CoW AMM.

  • Gnosis Pay — self-custodial Visa card infrastructure. Over $100M lifetime transaction volume, 2M+ payments processed. B2B Intermediary Programme for wallet partners.
  • Gnosis App (Metri) — consumer PWA combining Circles and the Gnosis Pay card.
  • Gnosis Business — on-chain business banking, built on the former HQ.xyz acquired by GnosisDAO via GIP-120 (revised). Focus on Asian market expansion.
