Decentraland’s 2025 Recap: From Building to Production

2025 was the year Decentraland’s rebuilt systems and creator tools began carrying the most daily activity. The platform moved into a rhythm of regular updates and improved stability, making the client feel less like a tech demo and more like a social world. With a unified pipeline now in place for creators and stronger social ties within communities, the focus has shifted from rebuilding to consistent execution.
