10X Founders Demo Day v2.0 by the numbers

10X Founders Demo Day v2.0 has wrapped, and the numbers show the scale of the event.

As co-host, Cicada helped build a stage designed to give early-stage Web3 founders real visibility, direct exposure to investors, and execution-focused support.

The results:

  • 600K+ impressions across main posts
  • 2M+ views across the broader Web3 community
  • 1,000+ reposts from organic supporters
  • 8 finalists pitching live in front of the judging panel

Beyond the reach, the strongest part of the event was the live execution. Each finalist presented and defended their project in real time, with no second takes.

Deploi ultimately took the win, standing out in a highly competitive final and securing access to support from the 10X Founders ecosystem.

For Cicada, the event was another example of how strong ecosystem support, investor access, market expertise, and distribution can come together around early-stage Web3 teams.

A big thank you to all partners, judges, founders, and community members who made 10X Founders Demo Day v2.0 a success.
