Adreva: The Ad Network That Pays You Back, Powered by 0G
Project Overview & Objectives
Adreva is an ad network where users earn from the ads they see. Privacy-first, reward-driven, and built so that the people generating the value are the ones who benefit from it. Our first product is a Chrome extension, with mobile and Smart TV apps on the roadmap.
The ad industry is broken in a fundamental way. Advertisers spend billions to reach people, platforms keep most of that money, and users (the ones actually generating the value) get nothing. Worse, they get surveilled. We wanted to build the opposite of that.
Adreva gives users real rewards for their attention while keeping all ad filtering on-device. No tracking, no profiling, no data leaving the browser. Advertisers get engaged audiences with insane click-through rates (33%, more on that below), users get paid, and nobody’s privacy gets sold off in the process. We’re building toward zero-knowledge proof verification so these privacy guarantees are cryptographically enforced, not just a line in a policy doc.
Where we’re headed:
-
Build the largest privacy-preserving, reward-driven ad network on the planet
-
Launch an AI Agent Marketplace (Q3 2026) where AI agents autonomously negotiate ad placements, optimizing for both user earnings and advertiser ROI
-
Expand to mobile (Q4 2026) and Smart TV (Q1 2027)
The long-term vision is a fully autonomous ad economy. Users set their preferences, AI agents handle the rest: negotiating which ads to show, at what price, and when. Advertisers get better targeting without touching user data. Users earn more without lifting a finger. The agents do the work, 0G provides the rails.
Traction
We launched 7 days ago. Honestly, the response has blown us away.
-
104,000+ waitlist signups pre-launch
-
and then 7,500 extension downloads in the first week
-
22,000 Discord members and 6,500 X followers, all organic, in 7 days
-
3M+ ad impressions and 1M+ ad clicks on the extension for a 33% CTR. For context, the industry average sits around 1-2%. Ours is 33%.
-
80+ advertisers onboarded including Samsung, Rakuten, and Cointelegraph
-

This isn’t manufactured hype. These are real users engaging with real ads at rates that would make any traditional ad network do a double take. We’re one week in, growth is accelerating, and we haven’t even started monetizing yet. Our Weekly Attention Campaign (WAC) program and Ad Army community network are driving advertiser demand, and a 3-tier referral system (up to 20% bonus) is fueling viral organic growth.
We plan to ride this momentum over the next two weeks and then activate monetization. That’s exactly where 0G infrastructure becomes critical.
Technical Architecture & Implementation Plan
Current product (Chrome Extension): React 18 + TypeScript running on Manifest V3. Ad ad filtering runs entirely on-device using a local IndexedDB ledger. Campaign data syncs down to the browser, but filtering logic never touches our servers. Viewability tracking enforces real engagement: 50% pixel visibility, minimum display durations, video completion thresholds. Background service workers handle sync every 5 minutes.
Backend: Express.js + TypeScript server with PostgreSQL (AWS RDS) through Prisma ORM, deployed on Railway. Handles user auth (Google OAuth, JWT tokens), campaign management, points ledger reconciliation, referral tracking, and fraud detection with risk scoring.
Blockchain: Base Network (at the moment) with Web3Auth wallet integration and MetaMask connector. Users have in-app wallets for reward redemption.
Advertiser Dashboard: Vite + React + Tailwind app with full campaign CRUD, real-time analytics, performance tracking, and Cloudinary-based media management. Currently 80+ advertisers actively using it.
Privacy stack: Zero-Knowledge Proof system designed using Circom circuits and snarkjs. Two core circuits: an Eligibility Circuit that proves a user’s interests overlap with campaign requirements without revealing specific categories, and an Engagement Circuit that proves view duration and impression counts meet reward thresholds without exposing browsing behavior.
Rewards economy: Points per engagement type (view: 10, click: 100, video complete: 25, feedback: 5). Multiplier tiers from 1.0x to 2.0x based on how many interest categories a user selects across 60 options in 9 groups. Daily cap of 100K points per user. Three-tier referral network with 20%, 10%, and 5% bonuses driving compounding organic growth.
Upcoming products: Mobile app (iOS and Android, Q4 2026) and Smart TV app (Q1 2027) will extend the same privacy-first, reward-driven ad matching to new surfaces, all feeding into the same advertiser network and reward economy.
How We’ll Integrate with 0G Infrastructure
We didn’t pick 0G randomly. Each piece of our roadmap maps to a specific part of the 0G stack.
0G Storage for Ad Campaign Assets Right now our campaign creatives (images, videos, metadata) sit on Cloudinary. That’s fine at 80 advertisers but won’t scale to thousands across multiple platforms. Moving to 0G Storage gives us decentralized, verifiable ad content. Advertisers and users can independently confirm campaign assets haven’t been tampered with. It’s cheaper at scale and it removes a centralized dependency that doesn’t belong in a Web3 ad network.
0G DA for Engagement Proof Publishing Currently we reconcile engagement data (views, clicks, video completes) through a centralized hash-based sync system. We want to publish engagement proof batches to 0G’s Data Availability layer instead. This creates a transparent, auditable trail: advertisers can verify they’re paying for real engagement, users can verify they received fair compensation. Trust-minimized by design, which matters a lot when real money is flowing to real users.
0G Compute for ZK Proof Generation Our zero-knowledge circuits are computationally heavy. Running Circom proof generation at scale for thousands of concurrent users across extension, mobile, and TV clients needs serious compute, and doing it on centralized infra defeats the purpose. 0G Compute lets us offload ZK proof generation to decentralized infrastructure while maintaining cryptographic verifiability. Privacy becomes provable, not just promised.
0G Chain for the AI Agent Marketplace (Phase 2) This is the big one. Our Q3 2026 milestone is an AI Agent Marketplace where autonomous agents negotiate ad placements on behalf of users and advertisers. A user tells their agent “I want to maximize my earnings, I’m fine with crypto and tech ads, no gambling.” An advertiser’s agent says “I need 50,000 impressions this week from users interested in DeFi, here’s my budget.” The agents negotiate, settle, and execute. No middleman, no platform taking a 60% cut. This aligns directly with 0G and AIverse’s Web 4.0 vision of on-chain AI agents with Agentic IDs. We’d build this natively on 0G Chain, taking advantage of 11K TPS for real-time ad auction settlement.

What 0G gets from this: A high-traction consumer platform (already at 7,500 users in week one, growing fast) driving real daily usage across 0G Storage, DA, Compute, and Chain. A flagship privacy use case showing off 0G’s ZK compute capabilities. An AI Agent Marketplace built natively on 0G. And consistent transaction volume from millions of daily ad engagement syncs across a rapidly growing multi-platform user base.
We’re not building a demo. We have users, we have advertisers, and we have engagement numbers that speak for themselves. 0G is the infrastructure layer that lets us scale this without compromising on the privacy guarantees and user rewards that got us here.
