Every Axiom Launch of the Past Year, From Vanish to Elysium

The Short Version

Late 2025: Going Private, Staking and Lobbies

The year opened on privacy. On 14 November 2025 Axiom switched on private trading through Vanish, a partner that keeps a trade out of sight until it lands, and it was available only on Axiom. If you buy early and dislike copy traders piling in behind you, this is the feature for you. Our MEV protection page covers how it fits with the other ways to stay out of sight.

At the start of December came axiSOL, Axiom's liquid staking token, with Harmonic tuning the validator's rewards. The docs list two ways in: stake SOL directly to the Axiom validator at no commission, or hold axiSOL, which takes 5% of earnings and charges 0.1% on withdrawals. We compare the two on the yield and staking page.

Lobbies closed out December. A lobby is a room you share with friends, with chat down the side of the chart and the group's results on one screen. It was the first of several social features that year, and our social trading guide walks through it.

January to May: A Rewards Pool, a Setback, Then Ethereum

Winners Arc arrived on 19 January: $200,000 paid in USD1 each week to the 50 traders with the best profit on USD1 pairs, Solana only. Weekly contests like this change terms quietly, so check the current rules on the points and rewards page before you trade for it.

February brought the low point. On 26 February Axiom said a member of its own team had misused internal support tools to look up users' wallets, that it had removed access to those tools and that it was investigating. We cover what happened and what it means in our Axiom review. The account then went quiet for almost three months, with no launch posts until late May.

It came back with three in a week. Ethereum trading opened on 21 May. On 27 May came Atlas Maps, built with InsightX, which draws how a token's holders link to each other, and Communities, a social feed that sits beside the chart. Of the three, Atlas is the one we would open first: a holder list tells you who owns a coin, the map tells you who owns it together. The Ethereum page and the token scanner guide go deeper on each.

June to August: Predictions, HOOD and a Smarter Portfolio

On 12 June Axiom added prediction markets. They run on Polymarket, sit in their own tab with Crypto, Sports and Politics filters, and trade from the same Axiom account. For a terminal built around memecoins it was a big step sideways, and it turned out to be the most watched launch of the year. The Polymarket how-to shows a first trade.

July was about Robinhood Chain. Axiom added it on 10 July with $100,000 in rewards on a first-come basis, and five days later made Pulse and the Wallet Tracker work across chains at once, so launches from Solana, Robinhood Chain and BNB Chain can share one feed. That launch carried another $20,000. Our Robinhood Chain page and the Pulse how-to pick up from there.

August added two tools for people who already trade a lot. Husher, on 15 August, is a marketplace for buying ready-made wallets in bulk and then naming, grouping and funding them from one panel. Portfolio V2, on 28 August, reads your own history back to you: which hold times and trade sizes pay, which hours of the day go well for you, and whether you chase losses.

The Edge panel above is the part worth opening first. Most traders have a gut feeling about what works for them, and most of those feelings are wrong somewhere. The portfolio tracker page lists every number it shows.

September: Five Chain Posts in Two Weeks

September was the busiest stretch of the year. BNB V2 on 3 September rebuilt Axiom's BNB Chain side and came with $500,000 in rewards. HOOD V2 followed on 7 September with $1 million, the largest single pot in these posts, alongside a Callouts panel, bulk wallet creation and a buy that waits until a launch's tax drops under 5%. Then Base on 9 September, Ink, Kraken's chain, on 14 September, and Arc, Circle's, on 16 September, the day Arc opened to the public.

Each chain has its own page here: BNB Chain, Base, Ink and Arc. What they share on Axiom is one account: pick the chain at the top of the screen and your presets and tracked wallets come with you.

November: Elysium

The latest launch is Elysium, posted on 9 November 2026 with a two-word caption, "Enter Elysium." Elysium is a new layer two from Kinetiq that settles to HyperEVM and pays gas in HYPE, and Axiom had it in the chain selector on the day its mainnet opened. That brings the count to nine chains. The Elysium page explains what trading there looks like.

What People Actually Watched

Every launch post carries a public view count, which makes a rough poll of what traders cared about. These are the counts for all 18 launches as of mid-November 2026.

Three things stand out. The two most watched launches were features, not chains: prediction markets at 1.40 million views and Husher at 1.07 million. Chain posts did well only when money was attached: HOOD V2, BNB V2 and the first Robinhood Chain post each passed 600,000, while Ethereum, Base, Ink and Arc, posted without a rewards pot, stayed between 65,000 and 130,000. And the February statement about the support tools reached 1.12 million views, more than any launch bar one.

Add up the one-off reward pots and you get $1.62 million across four launches. That is a lot of money to pull traders onto new chains, and the view counts suggest it works.

What It Means If You Trade on Axiom

The biggest practical change is how much one account now covers. A year ago Axiom was mostly a fast Solana terminal; it now covers nine chains, prediction markets and perps from the same login. You do not need a new account or a new wallet for each chain, and code TradeNow takes 20% off the trading fee wherever you use it.

The reward campaigns are worth a look but not worth chasing blind. Each one has its own window and its own rules, and the first-come ones may be gone already. Read the terms on the day you trade, and size each trade as if there were no pot.

We will cover each new launch here as it lands, with a monthly roundup of what changed.
