Bondex, a Web3-based professional networking platform, has surpassed 5 million downloads across iOS and Android since its official app launch in mid-2023, the company announced on Wednesday.
Launched in May 2022, the platform aims to offer an alternative to traditional professional networking services by integrating blockchain technology for identity verification, data privacy, and referral-based hiring.
Bondex's latest figures come amid broader interest in decentralized applications for career-building and talent acquisition.
The company said over 2 million users have completed their profiles on the app, and 400,000 are active on a monthly basis.
Its growth follows a $10 million funding round in 2023 backed by investors including Animoca Brands and Morningstar, which Bondex said would be used to scale its user base.
"Professional platforms today face challenges around spam, bots, and trust. We built Bondex to prioritize authenticity and verifiable identities," said Ignacio Palomera, co-founder and CEO of Bondex.

The platform also features a recruitment model where users can earn up to $20,000 for successful referrals, part of what Bondex describes as a decentralized approach to sourcing and matching talent.
According to the company, firms such as Blockchain.com, Solana, Binance Recruitment, and CoinMarketCap are currently using the platform to engage with candidates in the Web3 space.
Bondex positions itself as an alternative to resume-driven hiring by offering a digital identity that can reflect professional reputation and activity on-chain.
The company says its tools are designed to give users greater control over their data, while helping hiring partners avoid intermediaries.
While the company highlights rapid growth and adoption, it remains to be seen whether decentralized hiring tools like Bondex can scale to broader job markets beyond the Web3 ecosystem.
