We’re excited to spotlight Creator Network, a next-gen Layer 2 blockchain on the Superchain, purpose-built for the modular, AI-native future of Web3. Designed to empower builders, creators, and innovators with ultra-low fees, fast transactions, and full-stack ownership, Creator is breaking down traditional barriers to blockchain development. Through the Quicknode Rollup Accelerator, they’ve launched partner products like DCC DEX, deployed testnet infrastructure, and continued expanding their modular ecosystem with projects like Lumoswap and ZNS Snap for MetaMask.

Who are you, and what’s the mission behind Creator Network?

We are the team behind Creator Network, a next-generation Layer 2 blockchain built on the Superchain. Our mission is to empower Web3 builders by providing modular, AI-native infrastructure with lightning-fast transactions, ultra-low fees, and an open ecosystem — eliminating the barriers traditional platforms impose. Creator Network is designed for dapps, creators, and innovators who want full ownership and limitless scalability.

Creator Network is backed by the funds and community of ZNS Connect. With a large and growing database, we made the strategic decision to launch our own chain, bringing over 255,000 users into the Creator ecosystem to accelerate adoption.

What drew you to Quicknode’s Rollup Accelerator, and how has it shaped your journey so far?

We were drawn to Quicknode’s Rollup Accelerator because of its strong technical mentorship, global network of Web3 builders, and its focus on scaling modular ecosystems — perfectly aligned with our long-term vision for Creator. The accelerator experience has helped us optimize performance, enhance our developer experience, and connect with strategic partners. The Quicknode seminars have been outstanding, providing hands-on improvements to our technical skills while also upgrading our marketing and go-to-market strategy.

What’s been the highlight of your experience in the accelerator over the past few weeks?

The biggest highlight has been receiving early technical feedback from leading experts and collaborating with an incredible cohort of L2 innovators. We had the opportunity to showcase Creator Network’s unique approach to modular, AI-native infrastructure, confirming we are building exactly what the Web3 ecosystem needs. Additionally, the constant support from Quicknode’s partner network has been incredibly helpful and encouraging throughout the journey.

What key milestones have you hit during the program, and what lessons have stuck with you?

Response: Key milestones achieved during the accelerator:

• Launch of our partner DEX: DCC DEX

• Deployment of ZNS Connect on Creator Testnet

• Integration of MetaMask Snaps for seamless Web3 identity — now users can send crypto and NFTs using .ceo domains directly inside MetaMask: ZNS Snap

• Growth of the Creator Ecosystem with projects like Lumoswap

Key lessons we carry forward:

• Simplify onboarding — make it ridiculously easy for developers and users to get started

• User experience is everything — even for deep infrastructure projects

• Clear, simple messaging wins in the modular blockchain space

5. What’s next for Creator Network, and how do you plan to make waves in Web3?

Next, we are preparing for:

• Mainnet launch and activating the full Creator ecosystem

• Expanding early mover campaigns with new front-end solutions and onboarding incentives

• Integrating AI capabilities into Creator SDKs, including an AI assistant for developers and creators

• Launching Magic Store — a dapp marketplace for builders to showcase their work

• Running Layer3 campaigns to drive strong user and developer engagement

We believe the next era of Web3 will be modular, AI-native, and creator-first — and Creator Network is committed to leading that movement.
