Web3 email pivots to advertising and closed systems as early projects fold

Web3 email services have largely shifted focus from replacing traditional email to serving niche blockchain-based communication needs. While Mailchain and Dmail Network have ceased operations due to unsustainable costs and lack of viable funding models, EtherMail continues to operate. EtherMail employs a "read-to-earn" advertising model, where companies pay to send promotional emails to token holders, with users earning tokens for viewing ads. LedgerMail, on the other hand, functions as a closed corporate communication system for blockchain-native environments, intentionally avoiding standard email protocols like SMTP and IMAP. AI

IMPACT Web3 email services are evolving, with some focusing on advertising models and others on closed corporate systems, indicating a niche rather than mainstream adoption.
