2015: Gnosis was conceptualized as part of ConsenSys, founded by Martin Köppelmann and Stefan George, to build a prediction market on Ethereum. The idea was to leverage blockchain technology to create decentralized and transparent markets for forecasting events, enabling accurate, crowd-sourced predictions on various topics.

August 2017: Gnosis held its initial coin offering (ICO) and raised $12.5 million in under 15 minutes. This quick and successful ICO illustrated the community’s interest in decentralized prediction markets and provided funds for Gnosis to develop its platform and ecosystem.

July 2018: Gnosis launched Gnosis Olympia, a prediction market tournament designed to test and showcase the platform's capabilities. This simulated prediction market allowed users to forecast events without real assets and provided valuable feedback for further development of the Gnosis protocol.

November 2018: Gnosis introduced Gnosis Safe, a multi-signature wallet designed to enhance the security of digital assets on Ethereum. Gnosis Safe became popular for its robust security features, eventually becoming a go-to wallet solution for both individuals and DAOs, supporting safe asset management on Ethereum.

December 2019: Gnosis Safe Multisig was officially launched, providing Ethereum users with a secure, customizable, and non-custodial wallet. Gnosis Safe Multisig quickly gained popularity in the DeFi space as an essential tool for decentralized organizations, allowing DAOs to manage funds securely.

March 2020: Gnosis launched Conditional Tokens, a framework designed to support more advanced prediction markets. This innovation allowed users to create complex markets by establishing conditional relationships between outcomes, opening new use cases in decentralized finance (DeFi) and beyond.

December 2020: GnosisDAO was launched, making Gnosis one of the first projects to transition to a decentralized governance model. The GnosisDAO allowed GNO token holders to participate in decision-making, steering the future development and initiatives of the Gnosis ecosystem.

April 2021: Gnosis introduced Gnosis Auction, a platform for conducting fair token launches and auctions. This tool allowed projects to raise funds through transparent and trustless Dutch auctions, addressing issues in token distribution while ensuring market-driven pricing.

November 2021: Gnosis and xDai proposed a merger, aiming to combine their resources to create Gnosis Chain, a scalable, Ethereum-compatible blockchain focused on supporting DeFi and DAO applications. The merger was approved by both communities, expanding Gnosis’s reach and utility.

January 2022: Gnosis Chain was launched, providing a secure, decentralized network tailored for low-cost transactions. Built using xDai’s infrastructure and Gnosis’s governance, Gnosis Chain became a scalable solution within the Gnosis ecosystem, supporting various applications.

March 2023: Gnosis Safe was rebranded as Safe, formally spinning off as an independent project with funding from a community treasury. Safe continued to serve as a critical wallet infrastructure within the Ethereum ecosystem, widely used by DAOs and DeFi projects.

October 2024: Gnosis celebrated reaching over 500,000 active users and DAOs using Safe wallets, and a thriving ecosystem on Gnosis Chain. With advancements in governance, prediction market tools, and scalability, Gnosis solidified its role as a pioneer in building decentralized infrastructure for DeFi, DAOs, and prediction markets.
