Since day one, Tanssi has been built with a clear goal: making web3 more accessible. The idea is simple—provide the best infrastructure for launching and managing any type of web3 project, so developers can focus on building instead of dealing with unnecessary complexity.
What started as a platform to support appchains has grown into a solution for all kinds of decentralized networks. Tanssi is designed to support everything from application-specific blockchains to rollups, bridges, data availability layers, and more. By tapping into Ethereum’s shared security and offering customizable tools, Tanssi helps developers tackle use cases that traditional setups often can’t handle.
Here’s what Tanssi has achieved so far:
🌈 Collaborated with Symbiotic to bring restaked networks to life, making it possible to launch them in minutes with Ethereum-backed security.
🪩 Let’s Forkin Dance Season 1 brought together 100k+ participants globally and drove over 4M new testnet transactions.
💥 Dancebox, Tanssi’s testnet hit 7.5M transactions and registered 3,000+ chains.
💰 Secured $9M in funding from top investors like Arrington Capital, Scytale Digital, KR1, SNZ Capital, Borderless Capital, Wormhole Cross-Chain Fund, HashKey Capital, and Fenbushi Capital, with angel support from Gavin Wood.
📈 Grew the ecosystem to 100+ projects across DeFi, NFTs, RWAs, gaming, AI, and more.
🌍 Built a global network of 90k+ members through Tanssi's community channels and 10 language-based groups, spanning participants from over 90 countries.
These milestones aren’t just numbers—they reflect a growing ecosystem and a community that’s pushing for a more decentralized web3.
Now, let’s dive into Let’s Forkin Dance Season 2 and explore how it celebrates the Tanssi community and sets the stage for what’s next.

Let’s Forkin Dance: Built with the Community
The Tanssi community’s creativity shines through in everything they do. Inspired by the name “Tanssi,” which means “to dance” in many languages, they playfully transformed the popular crypto phrase “LFG” (Let’s Fcking Go) into “LFD” (Let’s Fcking Dance).
Embracing this energy, we named the campaign Let’s Forkin' Dance (#LFD)—Tanssi’s Incentivized TestNet Campaign—introducing Forkless, the Fork, as its spirited mascot and celebrating the community as the driving force behind it all.
In this new season, we’ve welcomed Coco—a degen dog who embodies the bold, playful spirit of the Tanssi community. Together with Forkless, Coco is here to guide participants through an exciting journey in Let’s Forkin Dance Season 2, where the rhythm gets stronger, the stakes get higher, and the beat never stops.
Let’s Forkin’ Dance Season 2: A Journey Through Tanssiland
Get ready—Let’s Forkin’ Dance is back with a fresh twist! Season 2 invites you to Tanssiland, a vibrant gamified world where you’ll dance, strategize, and build across three unique islands. With Forkie as your guide, you’ll tackle challenges to protect the Beat—the rhythm that powers it all—and climb the leaderboard for a share of the 10,000,000 Tanssi token incentive pool, distributed after the mainnet launch.
Tanssiland is alive with the energy of the Beat, a rhythm created and sustained by the creativity and freedom of its inhabitants. Across its three villages, Tanssians dance, build, and protect the groove that keeps their world thriving. But now, the Beat is under threat. An exiled Tanssian has returned, determined to steal the rhythm and disrupt Tanssiland’s harmony.
The rhythm can’t stop—and neither can you. Step into Tanssiland and discover its full story here.
